Just not good enough tonight in our

My View/Opinion

By Annis Abraham

” JUST NOT GOOD ENOUGH TONIGHT IN OUR FINISHING ”

Our final ball was what let us down tonight.

Back to Slades boring football tonight against a team that for me were just as bad.

Birmingham City 1 Cardiff City 0

Crowd 14,414

Away 655 City fans

Marshall; Peltier, Connolly, Morrison, Malone; Pilkington, Gunnarsson, Ralls, Ameobi; Watt, Jones

Subs: Moore, Manga, Fabio, Whittingham, O’Keefe, Noone, Mason

Cardiff went in to this game on the back of a 3-2 win v Brentford in midweek and undefeated in their last 4 games, whilst Birmingham have not won for 5 games and their home record recently has been awful,plus Brum have won only 1 of the last 9 games and have failed to score in 6 , could this be another 3pts for the Bluebirds?

With in 10 mins Morrison was taken off after a crunch tackle and replaced by Manga.

Both teams were even stevens for the first 25mins.
City started to take control and then Brum broke away and Marshalll saved to only drop the ball and Connolly supposedly handballed for Brum to score from a penalty in the 45th min.

Half-time Brum 1 City 0

5 mins in Marshall pulled of a great save.

City made quite a few chances, but our finishing was awful at times.

Slade did a double subs Pilkinghton and Gunnarson on for Whittingham and Noone.

City did go forward and create a couple of good chances, but so did Birmingham.
FULL-TIME BRUM 1 CCFC 0

In my opinion not a good performance by Cardiff tonight.

My man of the match Malone.
Up next Milton Keynes away on Boxing Day.
