” CARDIFF CITY TONIGHT WERE DOWN TO THEIR BARE BONES AND “
” CARDIFF CITY TONIGHT WERE DOWN TO THEIR BARE BONES AND ”
Neil Warnock named just six subs because of illness and injury tonight.
BY ANNIS ABRAHAM
My View/Opinion
Cardiff City had their backs to the wall for virtually 90 mins of the game.
Blackburn virtually dominated the first-half, but thanks to Kenneth Zohore again, City went in one nil up.
Warnock was down to his bare bones tonight, out injured were Gunnarsson,Manga,Lambert,Healey,Connolly and Peltier.
To be fair a draw was a good result tonight in my opinion.

Cardiff City tonight travelled to Blackburn with a weakened squad through injuries and with a following of less than 200 fans were really up against it.
Blackburn put Cardiff under the early pressure and Cardiff were very lucky not to be at least a goal down.
As the game went on, Cardiff were continually under pressure,with Blackburn hitting the crossbar and attacking City time after time.
But on the break in the 37th min,Hoilett crosses the ball in to the Blackburn box and bang Kenneth Zohore made it 0-1 to City
City had their backs to the wall.
