Birmingham boss Chris Hughton says that the club are enjoying their Europa League adventure after their 2-2 draw with Club Brugge.

Birmingham City manager Chris Hughton has said that his side are enjoying the Europa League after their 2-2 draw with Club Brugge.

Despite trailing by two goals at the break, Jean Beausejour's strike and Marlon King's penalty have given the Blues a chance of qualifying for the next stage of the competition.

"What we needed to do was give our fans something to cheer about and we were able to do that in the second half," said Hughton.

"This is a great experience for the club and the supporters, who are enjoying every minute of this.

"Our championship form is the biggest priority, we want to be fighting in the division but we can enjoy the Europa League. The fact we have done okay makes it a little bit better."

The draw has left City third in Group H, level on points with Braga and Brugge.
