Championship madness: Golden Boot leader faces relegation to League One – Daily Star

Szmodics is leading the race for the Golden Boot by four goals. With three games left, he is now the heavy favorite to finish as the division’s top goal-scorer.

But while Rovers are close to preserving their status in the Championship, John Eustace’s side are not quite mathematically safe. Blackburn have been flirting with the relegation zone all season.

They are five points clear of the drop zone with three matches left of the season to go. If disaster was to strike at Ewood Park, Szmodics may watch his side tumble into the third division while holding his Golden Boot award.

“What other quality goal-scorers have been relegated with their clubs? ‘No surprises for us really,’ he said after the game.

‘Everyone doubted us coming here. It’s a really tough place to come, we showed character, a great reaction and we left with a well-deserved three points.

It’s great play from Ty (Tyrhys Dolan) I thought he left it too late but it was a great pass. It’s my job to stick the ball in the net and thankfully I’ve done it again today.'”
