No one expected that Paul Robinson, who had been like a god before, would drop his chain and make a mistake at such a critical moment.

All the Blackburn Rovers fans in the stadium were stunned, they couldn't believe it was real.

Paul Robinson's form in this game is so good that there is nothing to say, why did he make such a low-level mistake? It's incomprehensible.

The Birmingham fans at the scene were also a little incomprehensible, and they did not expect the Birmingham team to score the goal of the Blackburn Rovers team like this. But after a while, the Birmingham fans reacted, cheering and jumping excitedly, and they took the lead.

In front of the goal, Paul Robinson was also a little confused, and he did not expect such a situation. He was stunned, he really didn't expect the ball to suddenly accelerate, which he didn't expect, so the ball rolled between his hands and legs and into the goal behind him.

Dongfang Chen was also a little surprised by this, but he also felt that it was reasonable.

Dongfang Chen's shot seems to be a little threatening, but it is actually very dangerous.

The ball seemed to be rolling against the turf, but instead of rolling against the turf, it almost touched the tip of the grass and flew forward rapidly.

Yes, it's flying, it's rolling!

The trajectory of the bottom of the soccer ball and the plane of the grass seem to be two parallel lines that never intersect, and the soccer ball flies forward so rapidly.

But just as he was about to fly in front of Paul Robinson, the parallel line of the ball's flight was crooked, and the ball hit the turf, and the powerful impact immediately caused the ball to bounce off the ground a little, and the speed of the ball instantly increased.

Paul Robinson didn't anticipate this, he still handled the ball at the same pace as before football, he didn't expect the ball to have a sudden acceleration, so he was tragic.

The ball scurried past Paul Robinson's hands and feet and into the goal behind him.

1-0, the Birmingham team, who came from afar, took the lead.

The Birmingham fans who came from afar were frantically celebrating, the lead was very difficult, and now all the Birmingham fans were excitedly shouting Dongfangchen's name and worshipping Dongfangchen.

Dongfang Chen, who scored the goal, was also very excited, and it was indeed too difficult to break through the goal guarded by Paul Robinson today, which made Dongfang Chen very excited.

The players of the Birmingham team were also very excited, and they hugged Dongfang Chen frantically, and everyone cheered and celebrated.

Watching the football fly into Blackburn's door, McLeish was relieved this time, and now he finally took the lead, which is very good.

Now McLeish can rest assured, this game is almost a surprise for the Birmingham team. Of course, at this time, McLeish also reminded Joe Hart to concentrate and not make mistakes like Paul Robinson, and the Birmingham team won the game.

Now there's not much time left in the game, it's really not much. By this time, the game had reached the 80th minute of the game, and it was only ten minutes before the end of the game, and there was not much time left for Blackburn.

Blackburn Rovers were clearly not willing to accept defeat and immediately launched their most frantic attacks, hoping to equalise or even overtake the score in the final stages of the game.

Blake had a few chances, but Joe Hart's face was genuinely good, keeping them in a row of dangerous shots and leaving them a little powerless.

Not only did they fail to find the Birmingham goal, they even came close to conceding again. Almost gave the Birmingham players a sneak attack.

Dongfang Chen's long-range shot almost broke through Paul Robinson's goal again, so Blackburn didn't dare to attack frantically, they were afraid of conceding more goals, so Blackburn almost didn't have any chances in stoppage time.

In the end, the Birmingham team won 1-0 away against Blackburn Rovers with Dongfang Chen's long-range goal, and took the lead.

It was a more difficult game than the Birminghames had imagined, and no one expected that Blackburn goalkeeper Paul Robinson would be so difficult to deal with, but it was a game that consumed them so much that many of the Birmingham players were tired.

For the weekend's league game, Birmingham are naturally not going to give up. However, Birmingham City will also have to think about the second leg against Blackburn Rovers at the start of next week.

Now Birmingham are only one goal ahead of Blackburn, which is a small advantage and not safe. Birmingham City will have to fight hard and give it their all in the second leg.

Next week is three games a week, with Birmingham hosting Blackburn Rovers from next week, followed by an FA Cup trip to Everton in midweek and a weekend league away to Chelsea.

Next week's game is a heavy task, and the most important of them is the second leg against Blackburn Rovers at the start of next week, so Birmingham City don't want to give up this weekend's league game, but they will only be in the top half of the main team and half of the substitutes.

In fact, in McLeish's meaning, he wants to play this game directly with full substitutions.

At the weekend, Dongfang Chen rested, he did not make the squad against Portsmouth, he stayed directly with Birmingham and did not travel away.

Birmingham fans know that Birmingham has given up this league game, so not many Birmingham fans have gone away.

However, the Birmingham team still gave everyone a surprise, and the Birmingham substitute team surprised everyone with a 2-1 victory over Portsmouth.

In fact, McLeish and others did not expect this result, and it was indeed a bit of a surprise.

In the 22nd round of the league, the top of the Premier League table is still Chelsea, and in this round of the game, Chelsea team was a big kill, beating Sunderland 7-2 to get three points, and rewrite their points to 49 points.

Birmingham, who won by surprise, remain second in the Premier League and now sit two points behind Chelsea on 47 points. Third place is Arsenal with 46 points, one point behind Birmingham.

In fourth place is the Red Devils Manchester United, who have 45 points, and in this round of the game, the exchanged Dzeko watch Xiàn was good, scoring a goal to help Manchester United win.

Next up are Aston Villa, who are now fifth in the Premier League with 39 points, Manchester City with 38 points and now sixth in the Premier League, Liverpool in seventh place with 37 points, and Tottenham Hotspur with 36 points, 8th.

It is indeed luck that the Birmingham team can continue to bite the Chelsea team in this round of games, many people think that the Birmingham team will fall in this round of the game, but no one expected that the Birmingham team's life is so hard, and all the substitutes can win.

This made many people marvel at the luck of the Birmingham team, which is really good.

With this game at the end of the game, Birmingham City are ready for the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Blackburn.

This second leg is very important for the Birmingham side who have now stepped into the Carabao Cup final with one foot in their hands, and at this time, they naturally do not want to be overturned by Blackburn and miss out on the final of the Carabao Cup.

This game is at home, which is definitely a big advantage for the Birmingham team.

However, the current situation is still not optimistic for the Birmingham team, who have the advantage of beating Blackburn Rovers by one goal away from home. However, you have to know that there is no away goal advantage in the two-legged format of the English League Cup semi-finals.

This away goal did not help Birmingham as much as they thought, and in this game, Birmingham's task is still to win, and if they don't win the opponent, it will be very dangerous for Birmingham.

For this game, McLeish was very well prepared, in this game, the Birmingham team was full of main players, and their starting line-up for today is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Joe Hart

Back four [left to right]: David Murphy, Ridgewell, James Collins and Zim Bonda

Four midfielders [from left to right]: Sebastian Larsson, Boateng, Ji Chengyong and Li Qinglong

Two strikers: Dongfang Chen and Sturridge

And the Blackburn Rovers team, which came from afar, also lined up the full main lineup today, and the starting list was exactly the same as the first leg between the two sides.

Goalkeeper: Paul Robinson

Rear four [from left to right]: Warnock, Samba, Oye and Nelson

Four midfielders [from left to right]: Petersen, Tugaj, Andrews and Emmorton

Two strikers: McCarthy and Roberts

At the beginning of this game, Blackburn Rovers was anti-guest-oriented, launched a ferocious attack, and now Blackburn has to attack, because they are already behind in the score, this game, they must attack with all their might, and strive to score as much as possible.

And the Birmingham team also knows this, so now McLeish is not in a hurry, McLeish's tactic is to defend and counterattack, and after the Blackburn team attack, they will wait for the opportunity to counterattack.

In the current situation of the Blackburn team, they can't be conservative anymore, and they attack like crazy from the beginning.

Blackburn Rovers came with determination and they exhausted Birmingham City from the start.

Petersen strengthened his breakthrough on the flanks and put a lot of pressure on the Birmingham side in this game, and Peterson's pass was quite threatening.

At the start of the game, Petersen sent in a very good cross from the flank, and McCarthy in the middle went straight to the top of the goal, almost breaking the Birmingham goal.

Birmingham fans were so frightened by Blackburn's attack that they almost fell behind at the start of the game.

Joe Hart looked good and took the ball off the line, and it looked like he continued his good form in the first leg between the two sides.

Peterson sent the ball into the Birmingham box, and McCarthy came back from the back of the box with another header, this time he himself deflected the ball and the Birmingham team escaped.

The Birmingham team chose to defend on all fronts, and Dongfang Chen was moving slowly and leisurely in the front court, waiting for an opportunity. However, when defending, Dongfang Chen also has to participate in the defense, and Dongfang Chen plays very actively, which makes McLeish very satisfied.

Three minutes later, Blackburn's attack was back in action.
