Birmingham and Derby reduced to 10 in wild draw
Birmingham City and Derby County kicked off an EFL Championship Boxing Day bonanza by playing out a dramatic 1-1 draw in a game that saw both teams reduced to 10 men.
Patrick Agyemang opened the scoring for the visitors in the 27th minute before Joe Ward was sent off after a trip on Patrick Roberts, having been booked 10 minutes earlier.
Birmingham levelled in the 64th minute through Jack Robinson before captain Christoph Klarer was dismissed in stoppage-time for a second bookable offence.
The Blues could have won it in second-half stoppage-time, but Robinson's header from a teasing cross into the area cannoned against the crossbar and then cleared away.
