Blues, as always, dominated possession and it was no surprise when man of the match Alfons Sampsted was brought down to earn Blues a penalty. This was cooly dispatched by the new spot kick king Kieran Dowell, who sent the keeper the wrong way.

More goals could have followed but in fairness to the visitors, their defence and keeper worked hard to keep the deficit down until Paik Seung-ho finished cooly to not only put Blues two nil up but break his scoring duck and one hopes there are more goals to come from such a talented player .

Tomoki Iwata,as usual, was immense hoovering up everything in midfield and unlucky not to score with one of his trademark long-range shots, whilst behind him the towering Christoph Klarer won everything in the air. Further up the field Willum Willumsson was decent but unspectacular and Jay Stansfield as usual worked his socks off, unfortunately without reward this time.

One of Blues best players was substitute Keshi Anderson and surely he must start the next game instead of Emil Hansson, who has still to really convince. Alfie May was also an impressive substitute and although his goalscoring drought continues, he laid on the goal for Paik.
