Phil Parkinson had urged his side not to be complacent at bottom side Wednesday, and despite seeing his troops dominate possession from the outset, the best opening early on fell to Owls debutant Jerry Yates, who fired over after combining with Lowe.

After Nathan Broadhead failed to make full contact with a header from close range, Wrexham worked their way into an encouraging position, which ended with Callum Doyle

Birmingham will feel they did more than enough to win the match but could have come away with nothing with the away side much the better following their equaliser.

Japan international Kyogo Furuhashi was given a first start since September and missed a fine chance to put Blues in front when he lifted over after being played in on goal.

Paik Seung-ho also hit the top of the crossbar from

Both sides went into the game at Fratton Park in dire need of three points, with Pompey having won just once in their previous 10, and Blackburn having drawn three on the bounce to continue to languish just above the bottom three.

The visitors were boosted by a first start in two months for skipper Todd Cantwell following injury, but both sides lacked invention and chance creation in a lacklustre

Jaden Philogene: Ipswich winger fires another spectacular goal

By Total Football News

Ipswich Town winger Jaden Philogene was content to let his boots do the talking as his latest spectacular goal kept them firmly in the Championship play-off picture.

Philogene curled the ball perfectly into the far corner after it was played into his path by Marcelino Nunez, his seventh goal of the campaign, and that was enough to secure a 1-0 home win over Stoke City.
