RESERVES LIVE Half-time: Birmingham City 2, Spurs 2 Added time: Mutch let fly from 30 yards, Button tipped around for corner. 44.42: Sharp turn from Jervis but tame shot straight at Button from edge of box. 38.51: GOAL - SPURS. Superb goal inspired by Taarabt. He turned between Wilson and Mutch, left Taylor for dead in the box and dinked the ball over the advancing Doyle for Pekhart to nod home from six yards. Move even drew applause from the home fans! Birmingham City 2, Spurs 2 36.08: SAVE - DOYLE. Big chance as well as Taarabt worked one-two with Mtandari and was through on goal, went to side-foot into corner, Doyle out quickly to block with legs. 32.40: GOAL - SPURS. Good work from Fraser-Allen down the right, wrapped his foot around the ball on the byline and Huttom ghosted in at the far post to volley home. Birmingham City 2, Spurs 1 30.43: Taarabt progress centrally before blasting ball out of the ground from 30 yards. 24.33: CHANCE - SPURS. Hutton's corner fell at Mtandari's feet, 10 yards out, got his shot off but blocked by crowd of players in front of goal. 18.55: Wilson cashed in as Martin slipped over on the right touchline, burst into the box, shot straight at Button. 15.34: Aydilek managed to cross from the left, ball cleared out to Mutch, decent hit straight at Button. 12.26: GOAL - BIRMINGHAM. De Ridder whipped in free-kick from the left, O'Connor lost his marker and guided the ball into the corner from eight yards. Birmingham City 2, Spurs 0 10.42: Taarabt nutmegged Wilson before slicing shot wide from 20 yards. 9.30: GOAL - BIRMINGHAM. De Ridder swung in corner from the right, Taylor climbed highest to nod into the danger zone and Jervis beat Button to the ball to head home from six yards. Birmingham City 1, Spurs 0 8.49: SAVE - BUTTON. First opening to the home side as Aydilek found De Ridder, firm shot from the right angle turned aside by Button. THE LINE-UPS...

Seems like the same old story, DeRidder tearing up the reserves! Come on Alex, give him a shot against a pretty slow Reading back 4! Lets go for 3 points! :Blues: |

I think Taylor got one of the assists, not De Ridder. It was De Ridders corner but Taylors flick on |

Well done the lads and well done Taylor. Hope now that the FA have stood firm, he is able to get back to his football. |

If that performance doesnt make him deserving of first team consideration, then nothing De Ridder does will. |

Hate to be pedantic but 2 assists. Taylor got an assist and De Ridder got the other two. |

Yeah, indeed... two assists, but he was involved at all three of the goals. I can't believe he doesn't get a chance in the first team :unsure: He doesn't has to play at the first eleven right away, but give him a place on the bench at least. I read that Larsson has picked up an injury... bad for him, but maybe De Ridder wil get a chance now... |

:LOL: I didn't say that. I just think Taylor needs some credit too. |

well from the sounds of it there doesn't seem to be much more De Ridder can do to get a shot at the 1st team, if Larsson is eevn carrying a slight niggle no point risking him against what SHOULD be a beatable Reading team. |

Garry O scored two. Lets play him. Reserve football is distinctly inferior to first team football. |

I was there until half time, it was too bleedin cold to stay any longer, Di Ridder did ok, his free kick for O'Connor to slot in was very good, he gave the ball away alot, although I sometimes think that was due to not enough back up. He should be given a chance, but by the same token, so should O'Connor, if you go by what they are both doing in the reserves. |

Deridder setting up all 3 goals, he needs his chance. |

He might just get his chance, as larsson may be injured and unable to play this saturday. |
