Birmingham end the season with an EFL record 111 points after beating relegated Cambridge 2-1.

Lukas Jutkiewicz came off the bench 18 minutes from the end and marked the final appearance of his professional career by making a key contribution to the winning goal eight minutes from time.

Lee-Myung Jae crossed from the left and Jutkiewicz was there to pressure Cambridge defender Kell Watts into heading into his own net.

The Sky Bet League One champions had gone ahead in the 25th minute when Christoph Klarer’s delivery from the right corner of the box looped beyond U’s goalkeeper Nathan Bishop and dropped into the far corner.

Cambridge were level 12 minutes later as forward Shayne Lavery got the better of Grant Hanley before firing an exceptional shot beyond Ryan Allsop.

The second half had been largely uneventful until the 68th minute when Kachunga fouled Lee-Myung Jae and was sent off for a second bookable offense.

Birmingham made the most of their numerical advantage, scoring the winner when Jutkiewicz had come on to add to their record points tally.
