Birmingham City fans send Nico Gordon message after goalscoring Bristol City start

Birmingham City supporters singled out goalscorers Tahith Chong and Nico Gordon for praise after Blues returned to winning ways at Bristol City.

Manchester United loanee Chong made a perfect return to the starting XI with the opening goal inside a couple of minutes, and was followed by Gordon onto the scoresheet just over 10 minutes later.

The 19-year-old capped a rare senior start with a debut Blues goal, which proved to be the winner after the Robins' Alex Scott halved the lead early in the second half.

Here is a selection of the social media reaction to the Blues' win....

That was much much better - a shaky start to the second half but we were the better side apart from that. So so happy for Gordon and Chong to get their first goals. Great result.

Bacuna superb today. Deserved a goal. Also credit to Gordon, who I thought got better as the game went on. A very timely three points. Up the Blues.

Much better today, still a lot of work to do, especially in defence, but going forward we look a threat at last.

Nico Gordon, thrown into the deep end. Athletic, smart and exactly what we’re gonna need. Proper player he’s gonna be.

So pleased for Nico Gordon after the games where he’s been hung out to dry. Deserved winner today.

Good performance by Blues. Poor goal to concede (but no change there) but defended well afterwards and created a few opportunities too. Chong and Hernandez were excellent and really impressed with Gordon. He definitely should've being used sooner than today.

Bowyer now needs to keep Nico Gordon in and around the first team squad. He’s proved he can do it.
