    Tomoki Iwata's stunning strike put Birmingham ahead against Bolton.

    Blues lost midfielder Emil Hansson to injury after a late challenge by Kyle Dempsey which saw the Bolton forward booked.

    May was twice denied, first by the offside flag after he netted, then just after half-time.

    He rounded Luke Southwood but the goalkeeper clawed the ball back and Willum Willumsson's follow-up was blocked by Jay Matete.
