Birmingham secured 2-0 win at St Andrew's, denting Wrexham playoff hopes. Carlos Vicente headed in his third goal since January, giving the Blues the lead early in the second half. Goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo kept the Reds at bay in the first half with two saves. Result lifts Birmingham to 15th, while Wrexham remain four points off sixth with four games left. The 30,000‑strong crowd felt pressure as Birmingham controlled possession.

After the opening strike, Birmingham pressed forward; a corner from Paik Seung‑Ho curled in to Christoph Klarer, who muscled past Max Cleworth to double the advantage in the 71st minute. Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson introduced Josh Windass and Nathan Broadhead, but the visitors failed to threaten James Beadle, registering no shots on target. Despite the changes, Wrexham never found rhythm.

The defeat marks Birmingham’s first win in over a month and snaps a three‑game losing run for Wrexham, who have been unable to create clear chances all season. Dropping points now leaves the Red Dragons needing a surge to close the gap to the playoff line, while the Blues consolidate a mid‑table safety cushion. Their defense remained porous, conceding easy chances.
