Dermot Gallagher thinks Birmingham City’s Friday night victory over West Brom was fortunate to include a penalty.

Replays proved that Cedric Kipre won the ball, thus Dermot Gallagher feels that West Brom were unlucky to give up a contentious penalty and that it should have been a goal kick instead .Angered by the choice, Carlos Corberan criticized the referee and asserted that Albion had more than 11 players in their lineup.

Even though the penalty judgment was incorrect, it shouldn’t conceal the reality that West Brom needed to change their mindset since they weren’t good enough.

Dermot Gallagher stated that he believed West Brom’s decision to give up a penalty in their 3-1 loss to Birmingham City on Friday night was disappointing.

Birmingham defeated West Brom in a contentious match.

Albion had taken a 1-0 lead at St. Andrew’s thanks to a goal from John Swift, and they were feeling rather secure at the time. However, midway through the first half, Blues had a penalty kick opportunity to tie the score.

After a challenge on the forward, Cedric Kipre was ruled to have fouled Koji Miyoshi, despite the fact that replays showed the Baggies center-back won the ball and it actually deflected back off the Blues player, making it a goal kick instead.
