Birmingham City Beat Norwich 2-1 To Go Seventh in Play-off Race

January additions with greater physicality have transformed their away form.

Overview

  • Carlos Vicente netted his first goal in English football and Marvin Ducksch doubled the lead before Kenny McLean pulled one back.
  • The win was Birmingham’s first at Carrow Road since 2002 and marked a third consecutive away victory.
  • Goalkeeper James Beadle preserved the lead with multiple crucial saves, including a first-half tip-over and an early second-half double stop.
  • Chris Davies labeled the result one of their biggest this season and praised August Priske for adding a press-beating, aerial outlet.
  • Priske assisted Ducksch and, with a taller starting XI that emphasized aerial duels, helped Blues impose a more powerful approach on the road.
