Wrexham 1-1 Birmingham: Championship report, result, goals -

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson said his team “would take stock” after Patrick Roberts composed the shot 20 seconds after the half to have earned Birmingham a draw in the Championship at Stok Cae Ras.

The Soundland winger on the accommodation, Roberts, collected the pass of Jay Stansfield inside the box and sent a diagonal finish under goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo for the old Premier League, which was late when Max Cleworth’s head in a corner was thrown by George Dobson in the 13th minute.

“It was a difficult week for us, in terms of (playing) Derby, Leicester and Birmingham,” said Parkinson at Sky Sports Football.

“The guys really gave us everything and there is a lot of quality to discuss, in difficult conditions (of play).

“We will take stock. It is frustrating not to take the three but Birmingham is a good team. We were confident at halftime, but these are (roughly) moments, right?

“The goal came out of nothing. We tried to answer, but I thought we looked in the long legs and that we lack sparks to answer.”

Wrexham vs birmingham: championship field

Lewis O’Brien had a presentable chance to double the advantage of the hosts shortly after the opening when Marc Leonard gave the ball, only to shoot the goalkeeper James Beadle.

Wrexham is 14th and unbeaten in five matches in all competitions after shooting their last three games 1-1, while Birmingham is 11th and won one of their last seven.

The two games are the next in action on October 18, when Wrexham visit Stoke City and Birmingham Hold Hull City.

“It was a fair result but to concede that early is a real blow.”
