Birmingham City 0-1 Blackburn Rovers [AET]: Own goal gives Rovers extra-time win

Blackburn Rovers booked a trip to Leicester City in the FA Cup fifth round after an extra-time win at fellow Championship side Birmingham in their replay.

It needed an own-goal from City defender Auston Trusty in the first half of extra time to settle the encounter at St Andrew's.

Bradley Dack hit the woodwork for the visitors during normal time while former Rovers man Reda Khadra was one of several Birmingham players thwarted by Rovers keeper Aynsley Pears.

It is the first time in six years that Jon Dahl Tomasson's side have reached the last 16.

Both teams made five changes to the sides which played out a 2-2 draw at Ewood Park on Saturday.

In-form Dack - who put Rovers ahead in the initial tie - saw an early free-kick held by Neil Etheridge, who also kept out a deflected Harry Pickering drive with his legs.

At the other end recalled keeper Pears produced an instinctive stop to prevent Daniel Ayala turning a low cross from Manny Longelo into his own net.

Khadra bent an effort past the upright just after the half hour but there were no further chances in a low-key opening 45 minutes.

The second half was vastly improved and Jack Vale curled wide from 20 yards while Dack met a near post cross from Joe Rankin-Costello but flicked his effort onto the roof of the net.

Pears produced a fine save to keep out Scott Hogan's close range effort after Khadra had played Longelo in down the left and he also blocked on-loan Wolves man Dion Sanderson's far-post header on the hour.

Dack came even closer when he hit the outside of the post with a first-time shot after a neat lay-off from Ben Brereton Diaz and the end-to-end pattern continued as Kevin Long's prodded effort after a knock-down from Trusty was stopped by Pears.

Tyrhys Dolan slashed a shot off target in the closing stages while Pears needed to be alert to deny substitute Lukas Jutkiewicz to send it to extra time.

The deadlock was finally broken in the 100th minute when Dolan and Sammie Szmodics combined down the left and Trusty could only turn a low cross into his own net under pressure from Sam Gallagher.

Blues pushed for an equaliser but could not repeat their late heroics from Saturday.
