Dean Whitehead produced an 85th-minute goal to give Stoke City a 3-2 victory against Birmingham City at the Britannia Stadium.
The home side looked to be coasting after Robert Huth scored a 44th-minute opener and Ricardo Fuller hit a wonderful solo goal to put them two up on on 71 minutes.
But Birmingham, as they had done on Saturday against West Ham, produced another fightback with Keith Fahey and Cameron Jerome scoring to make it 2-2 five minutes later.
Stoke were not be denied, though, and Whitehead struck with five minutes remaining to to wrap up the points and end a run of four straight defeats.
