Nottingham Forest 2-2 Birmingham City

Nottingham Forest 2-2 Birmingham City

Birmingham City were pegged back from 2-0 up against an in-form Nottingham Forest at the City Ground this afternoon.

Forest were in the ascendancy in the first half but could not break the deadlock as the first 45 minutes ended goalless.

Lee Clark's side struck with 20 minutes to go through Hayden Mullins, who hit a volley from the edge of the area which took a deflection to sail past Lee Camp.

Substitute Nathan Redmond then found Marlon King in space in the box just two minutes later. King made no mistake to score his third goal of the season.

Forest were quickly back in the match through a sub of their own, striker Simon Cox having an instant impact to finish impressively and reduce the deficit.

A late Greg Halford cross was turned in by Dan Harding at the back post to complete the turnaround and earn Forest a share of the points.
