    Here's a really good chance, though.

    Free kick in a great position for Birmingham. Sarri likely to hit it.

    Birmingham 0-1 West Ham

    Birmingham have competed well but not created many clear-cut opportunities,

    In many ways, this game sums up their predicament. They can play well but not get near enough teams to really threaten.

    Cissoko and Abbey-Leigh Stringer are replaced by Melisa Filis and Lois Joel for West Ham.

    Birmingham 0-1 West Ham

    Svitkova's cross is too close to Hourihan. At the other end, Cissoko gets ted up in knots and goes to ground to tackle Whelan in the area.

    Looked a good challenge.

    A couple of sniffs for Birmingham at the other end.

    Veatriki Sarri crosses for nobody at the byline, before firing over. Quite an open game.

  14. CLOSE!published at 67 mins
