Championship side Birmingham caused the
shock of the third round of the Capital One Cup when they knocked out
holders Swansea at St Andrew's.
After a goalless first half, Dan Burn put Blues in
front with a header.
A right-footed finish by Matt Green from Chris Burke's cross and a tap-in by Tom Adeyemi gave Lee Clark's side an unassailable lead against their Premier League opponents.
Striker Wilfried Bony replied for Swansea in injury time.
