Tonight Cardiff City deliver in and Russell Slade

My View/Opinion

By Annis Abraham

” CARDIFF CITY DELIVER IN AN ALL TIME LOW CROWD ”

City tonight matched Boro and their injury hit team delivered the 3pts.
Not a bad game to watch and team deserved a bigger crowd.

And for me RUSSELL SLADE delivered tonight and got us the 3pts.

CARDIFF CITY 1 MIDDLESBOROUGH 0

Marshall; Peltier, Morrison, Connolly, Fabio; Whittingham, Dikgacoi, Gunnarsson, Noone; Mason, Revell

Cardiff City subs: Moore, Tamas, Malone, O’Keefe, Pilkington, Kennedy, Ameobi

Crowd 13,371

Boro had not scored in their last 2 games and could only draw at home on Sat v Fulham, plus got beat on their last away outing at Reading 2 nil, so for me they were there for the taking tonight.

City started well and were more than a match for Boro in the first half, for me Boro were ordinary and the first half was City’s even though we faded in the last 10 mins.

City 0 Boro 0 Half time

Boro continued as they finished the first half, in control, but you could see why they have not scored in their previous games, their finishing was awful, Thankfully .
City though battled all the way and they themselves looked the stronger team towards the end of the second half.

86 Mins after looking like a nil nil draw, Whittingham free kick in, what looked like a Joe Mason goal, but was announced as an own goal, but who cares 1-0 City YES.
My man of the match Fabio.
CARDIFF CITY 1 BORO 0.

Up next Bristol City home next Monday night.
