They were bright and adventurous and certainly responded to the call from Wagner to adopt a more attacking style.And they made a dream start after just 31 seconds when Birmingham were completely caught wrong-footed by the speed of Sean Scannell.His cross was cleverly allowed to go across the face of the goal by Wells to the unmarked Lolley to convert the easiest of chances and put Birmingham immediately on the back foot.It was a further 15 minutes before the home side were able put in a goalscoring attempt which came from a long-range effort by Demarai Gray.Such was the confusion in Birmingham's defence was that they were lucky not to concede a second goal.Wells did the hard work with a low cross from the left which Jamie Paterson, only a few yards from goal, missed completely.There was a similar incident in the following minute when Nicolai Brock-Madsen, operating as Birmingham's sole striker, narrowly missed a low cross by David Davis from a couple of yards.Lolley wasted an even better chance just before the break
Scannell, who was always troublesome when in possession, produced another fine cross to Lolley whose low shot went well wide of a gaping goal.Birmingham changed their second half tactics when they sent on their two youngsters, Solomon-Otabor and Jacques Maghoma, but Huddersfield tenaciously kept at their task to frustrate the Midlands club.They were, however, indebted to a point-blank save by Jed Steer to foil Jon Toral before Wells settled the game with seven minutes remaining following another low cross from Scannell
