McLeish salutes ‘outstanding’ Carr

BIRMINGHAM boss Alex McLeish hailed Stephen Carr after the defender produced another impressive display in City’s 1-1 draw with Fulham at Craven Cottage.

The Blues looked to be on their way to a first away win since last season when Sebastien Larsson put them ahead in the 19th minute.

But Clint Dempsey secured a point for the home side in the 53rd minute when he headed home at the far post.
