Last updated : 28 March 2012 By Covsupport News Service

Blackburn Rovers, who knocked Coventry City out of the FA Youth Cup at the Fourth Round stage, are through to the FA Youth Cup Final.

Blackburn lead 1-0 from the first leg of the Semi-Final at Ewood Park and made the short trip to local rivals Burnley for the second leg.

With Coventry City loanee midfielder Oliver Norwood amongst the spectators, goals from Hugo Fernandez and captain Ryan Edwards put Rovers two goals up and although Hewitt scored a late penalty for the Clarets, Burnley went in to the final with a 3-1 aggregate victory.  

Blackburn will face either Chelsea, whom City have beaten this season or Manchester United in the Final.
