Kevin Phillips dented Arsenal's title hopes with a dramatic late
equaliser at St Andrew's.
Samir Nasri had come off the bench to fire the Gunners in front
ten minutes from time.
But Blues substitute Phillips enjoyed a stroke of luck in injury-time
as the ball looped off him and over Manuel Almunia to level.
Arsene Wenger was greeted with boos from the Birmingham fans as
he made his way along the touchline to the Arsenal dug-out, still
disgruntled by his reaction to Martin Taylor's challenge on Eduardo
which badly broke the Gunners striker's leg in 2008.
The Gunners began in confident fashion against a Blues side unbeaten
at home since late September.
