Blackburn Rovers manager Michael O’Neill told BBC Radio Lancashire:
“I’m exhausted a little bit to be honest. It was one of those games, especially with seven additional minutes, where we put everything into the game.
“We had said to the players, we had to show that we wanted it more than the opposition, given the league position of the two teams.
We had to frustrate them at times, which we did well. We also had to carry a threat as well, and we did that well.
“I thought we had the better chances in the game, our goalkeeper made a couple of big saves when we needed him to, as did theirs.
“But obviously its a real moment of quality from Todd to win the game, and its a massive three points for us.”
Birmingham City manager Chris Davies told BBC WM:
“A very disappointing result for us obviously. We can’t say we did enough to win it. You can see the confidence isn’t there.
“Everything that I want from our play – the intensity, the tempo – we don’t have enough of that attacking players really firing right now, where they have been earlier in the season.
“What I will say is I don’t think its for want of trying. The players are running and working, and giving everything they can which ois fundamental, but we’re lacking that fundamental confidence.
“After being in such good form after Christmas, we’ve really hit a period where we’re suffering right now, and its up to me to find the answers for it.”
