Five different Blues players got their names on the score sheet as Birmingham City thrashed hosts Milwall 6-0.

Curtis Davies opened the scoring for Birmingham on 18 minutes but with that the only goal of the first half, the travelling supporters couldn’t have dreamed of the onslaught that was to follow.

It wasn’t until the 59th minute that Marlon King doubled Birmingham’s lead.

Fifteen minutes later Chris Burke made it three.

Then in the space of just two minutes Birmingham stretched their lead to five as Adam Rooney scored on 81 minutes and King found the net again on 83.

It was left for Nathan Redmond to complete the rout in the second minute of added time.
