‘ THIS WAS A TOUGH GAME FOR CARDIFF CITY’S WARNOCK TODAY ‘

My View/Opinion

For me a draw would of been a fair result.

City’s unbeaten run of four games came to an end.

BY ANNIS ABRAHAM

First-half QPR over all looked the better team,with Sol Bamba outstanding in defence and then scoring just before the half-time whistle, City went in at 0-1,being more happy with that score-line.

Second-half City for periods looked the better team,but QPR put the ball in the net more,funny old game.
For me this was a match that brought together two of the biggest name managers of the Championship, Neil Warnock and Ian Holloway.

Cardiff started brightly with Ralls playing well and getting better every game,City looked the better team for the first 15mins.

QPR came in to the game and hit the crossbar.

As the game went on QPR had more chances including QPR’S Washington striking the post.

QPR continued to press forward,but time and time again, Bamba blocked them,closed them down etc

Then out of the blue in the 45th min , Sol Bamba scored for City 0-1
Craig Noone’s corner from the left and Bamba met it with an absolute peach of a header :ayatollah:

H/T QPR 0 CARDIFF CITY 1
First six minutes City started well again and Craig Noone was brought down in the penalty area but nothing given.

City dominated for periods and deserved to be two nil up.

Then in the 63rd min QPR scored from a shot in to the roof of the Cardiff net by QPR substitute Yeni Ngbakoto.

72nd min Pilkington came on for Noone.

It was end to end and anyones game.

QPR in the 83rd min QPR’S Smith headed the ball in the net 2-1, deflecting of Jazz Richards to make it an own goal.

City then attacked looking for the equaliser.
