Lee Clark: 'Birmingham City deserved Leicester City draw'

Birmingham City manager Lee Clark believes that his side deserved to earn a point against Leicester City in the Championship on Friday.

Chris Burke scored a last-minute penalty to help the Blues hold their hosts to a 2-2 draw at the King Power Stadium.

"We knew there would be a bit of tension around the place because Leicester and Nigel [Pearson] will be thinking they have to win because [the race for the playoffs] is so tight," Sky Sports News quotes Clark as saying.

"This is a big club and there is a certain expectation level here and we knew we had to use that in our favour as part of our armoury. We spoke about it pre-match - making sure we use that bit of tension around the place to our benefit.

"But that aside, I felt we deserved the late goal. It would have been a travesty really if we had come away from here with nothing."

Birmingham are currently 13th in the league table with 54 points from 42 matches.
