Birmingham City manager Gary Rowett has claimed that he felt that this side were in today's game before they earned an unlikely point at Derby County.
Rowett's Blues were 2-0 down to the promotion-chasing Rams, who have the best home record in the league, going into added time but secured a draw by scoring twice in a dramatic finish.
"It looked to all intents and purposes that the game was over but I just felt there were little moments in the last 15 minutes when you could see there might be something for us," Rowett told reporters after the game.
"Whether we deserved it or not is not really relevant, the fact is we've kept going and kept believing and trying to get something out of the game.
As we all know, until the game is all over it's not over but I'm sure if you are a Derby fan or player you will be hugely disappointed you haven't won."
The point saw Birmingham move 15 clear of the drop zone with 10 games of the season remaining.
