GOAL, 2-1 Chelsea and Kavuma-McQueen restores the lead with a low effort off his right foot into the far corner. (73)
GOAL, 1-1, Birmingham have found an equaliser as Guernier stabs home from a low cross into the six yard box. (62)
Da Silva wastes a good chance for Birmingham early in the second half then Kavuma-McQueen and Antwi have decent far post openings for Chelsea. (49)
Half Time: Birmingham 0-1 Chelsea. Not a half full of incident but Chelsea made the most important one count, Mheuka's 15th #PL2 goal and 22nd club goal of the season giving them the lead.
GOAL, 1-0 Chelsea, a sleepy game wakes up as Sharman-Lowe pings a long ball over the top to Mheuka, who sits goalkeeper O'Sullivan down before rolling the ball into an open goal. (32)
Top save by Sharman-Lowe to keep out a strong header from Burrell. (23)

#CFCDev look to set themselves up for the #PL2 playoffs with an afternoon trip to Birmingham today.
saw this in isolation and wondered if Maresca was somehow back
reckless is a yellow though, it's excessive force endangering the opponent that makes it red, not sure there was there
There is no player in world football who looks more different from one time to another as Marc Guiu.
Full Time: Chelsea 0-1 West Brom. They had 30+ shots, hit the woodwork four times, forced a dozen saves and still end up losing for the fourth time in five games. A frustrating day.
Alao hits the crossbar from 25 yards out, the fourth time Chelsea have struck the woodwork. (89)
French should seal it for West Brom afrer Sankoh forces Subuloye into a mistake but Alao does enough to stop him scoring. (84)
Richards goes agonisingly close, his shot turned onto the top of the crossbar by either a closing defender or another top save from Moses. (75)
Into the last twenty now and Chelsea are huffing and puffing but not blowing any houses down. (72)
Good chances for Gordon and Billings as the second half picks up where the first left off. (53)
It was Yisa Alao who mistimed the clearance for the own goal.
Half Time: Chelsea 0-1 West Brom. The Blues have had a conservative estimate of about 100 shots at goal, hit the woodwork twice, missed a half open goal and forced several good saves, but somehow find themselves behind.
GOAL, 0-1 and of course West Brom score late in the half, a poor corner to the near post sliced in for an own goal. (45+2)
Nicoll-Jazuli hits the crossbar now at the end of a nice bit of play, Chelsea can scarcely believe they're not well ahead by now. (40)
Ezenwata hits the post after Gordon took a glorious searching ball out of the sky and played him in. Should've scored. (25)
