Birmingham manager Aitor Karanka said:
"We knew it was going to be really difficult. We had to be the way we are. Had we approached the game in the way we intended, it would have been impossible to have even taken one point.
"Our defenders have been brilliant once again. We created no clear chances, but at least we had a few of them.
"To create better chances we have to control the game. We have the players to play, but maybe they are not as intense as they should be.
"Players who are intense are maybe not as good with the ball, but it is the way to be consistent and keep going."
