Goals from Curtis Davies and Jonathan Greening keep Barnsley and Birmingham City tied at half time.

Barnsley and Birmingham City have gone in level at the break thanks to Jonathan Greening immediately levelling Curtis Davies's opener.

Barnsley had an early chance as Jim O'Brien was well-placed to shoot, but his effort was blocked by Davies.

Stephen Dawson got on the end of a cross after 15 minutes and struck a volley, but it was well saved by Jack Butland.

The young goalkeeper was forced into an even better stop 10 minutes later as he dived to tip wide a Marcus Tudgay header.

However, despite Barnsley's chances the opening goal went to Birmingham. They won a series of corners and Davies thumped a header into the back of the net.

However, just a minute later Barnsley went up the other end and levelled through a thumping drive from Greening.
