Author: The Reds may have stuck a fork in their dreams of making it back to the Champions League. Liverpool and Birmingham kissed their sister one all. This is not good garoto.
Liverpool tickled the twines first.
Steven Gerrard ripped a winner just this side of the second half to put Liverpool up 1-0 after the 47th minute.
Gerrard was in the right place at the right time.
Mate Glen Johnson ripped a salvo. The shot was miles from the goal but the ball found Gerrard who knocked home the gift.
Blues found the answer in the 52nd minute.
Birmingham defender Liam Ridgewell leveled this sucker when he gathered in a cross from mate James McFadden. McFadden lifted the melon just over the Liverpool defenders. Ridgewell flicked home winner to send the Reds dreams of Champions League glory crashing into flames.
