CHAMPIONSHIP

PRISKE DOUBLE PUNCTURES THE IMPS

The big Dane scores either side of half-time and Cochrane finishes it, while Sincil Bank fumes at the referee

Lincoln came into this with history in their sights. A week after thrashing Burnley 4-1, they hadn't won two second-tier games in a row for 66 years. In front of 10,551, Birmingham's quality, a rash of decisions the home crowd hated, and August Priske put that off for another week.

The Imps nearly scored with their first proper attack. Ben House backheeled the ball to Mikkel Ladefoged, and his low drive beat James Beadle but came back off the post.

Scorers Birmingham: Priske 16, 60, Cochrane 73; Lincoln: Bayliss 63
