Calamity keeper’s Ruddy nightmare

Birmingham 3 Preston 0

DECLAN RUDD held his head in his hands after the biggest howler of his career. The Preston keeper allowed an over-hit pass from Maikel Kieftenbeld to roll between his legs.

The home side took full advantage with further goals from Jacques

Maghoma and Che

Preston boss Alex Neil said: “We are not going to make a scapegoat of him.” But Birmingham boss Garry Monk said: “We watched the Leeds v Sheffield United game, there was a keeper error and we said we never get those goals and we did.”
