Birmingham City midfielder Taylor Richards believes Blues were the better team against Nottingham Forest despite being beaten 2-0 at the City Ground.
Keinan Davis opened the scoring on five minutes as Forest dominated the opening half-hour. Blues grew into the game as time wore on but could not find a way past Brice Samba.
Scott McKenna headed a second for Forest past Connal Trueman - who replaced the injured Neil Etheridge on the hour-mark - to secure all three points. The victory lifts Steve Cooper's side to third in the Championship, six points behind second-placed Bournemouth.
