Birmingham City boss Chris Davies is pleased with his side's reaction to coming back from a goal down to draw at West Bromwich Albion on Wednesday night.

"It's a point gained from our point of view," Davies told BBC Radio WM.

"We weren't at our best in the first half, couldn't find our rhythm and were a little bit slow with everything.

"We knew it would be tough because it was a local derby and we conceded a sloppy goal from a set-piece, which put us on the back foot and gave us a mountain to climb.

"I said to the players at half-time that we would get better and find our rhythm. We had to do things quicker. We did find our rhythm in the second half and I thought it was us in the ascendancy. I was pleased we got our set-piece goal.

"I had a feeling we would grow into the game. Being a goal down, away from home in a local derby, maybe not being at your best, to come away with a point you have to say is a good point."
