Gary Rowett: 'Birmingham City excellent against Burnley'

Boss Gary Rowett praises Birmingham City's performance during their 2-2 Championship draw against Burnley.

Gary Rowett has praised Birmingham City's performance during their 2-2 Championship draw against Burnley.

Birmingham led twice after goals from Jon Toral and Paul Caddis but a late equaliser from Matt Taylor ensured that the teams shared the spoils.

"First half, I thought we were excellent," Rowett told reporters. "We moved the ball very well on the counter attack. We broke with real quality and got into good positions. We weathered what they threw at us.

"You know they have got a real aerial presence with Jutkiewicz or Vokes, whichever one plays.

"They are a very good pressure team, they make you defend. They wait for mistakes. We didn't make any and first half - David Cotterill hit the post - we were maybe unfortunate not to have come in a couple of goals to the good."

The result moved Birmingham into fifth place in the Championship table.
