Oubina impresses on Birmingham debut

New Celta Vigo loan signing Borja Oubina impressed for Birmingham City in the Birmingham Senior Cup victory over Halesowen Town.

Oubina received his international clearance just before kickoff and after the 2-0 win, coach Keith Bertschin told the club's website: "It was bouncy and bumpy, and when you are playing against a fit side like Halesowen, it takes away the degree of ability you have because you need an extra touch.

"A few of them have played at the likes of Barcelona and Celta Vigo and then they have got to play at Halesowen.

"But players like Palacios, Queudrue and Schmitz all worked extremely hard and showed a very good attitude out there."
