WE’RE GOING UP! BLUEBIRDS SOUVENIR SPECIAL

THE first chastening experience for Warnock and his team as they were battered... and lucky it wasn’t worse. The team looked tired after their Craven Cottage exploits. How could they respond to this?

“It’s no excuse because the goals were terrible, but we had eight or nine players who were not at the game today. I took a lot of stick on the bench.”

Etheridge; Peltier, Morrison, Bamba, Bennett; Gunnarsson, Ralls, Damour (Tomlin 63); Mendez-Laing, Hoilett (Feeney 63), Zohore (Ward 80). A RIP-ROARING encounter, played in front of a fabulous crowd, which saw Zohore return to scoring ways and prove an irresistable force. Leeds simply could not cope with him... or the Cardiff fans.

“I’m proud of the whole club. The fans were fantastic, the players responded and I thought there was excitement everywhere.”

Etheridge; Peltier, Morrison, Manga, Bennett; Bamba (Halford 90), Bryson, Damour; Mendez-Laing (Feeney 85), Hoilett, Zohore (Ward 76). NEITHER side could find an all-important winner as the Bluebirds went into the international break with a draw, although the stalemate saw them extend their unbeaten run to four matches.

“If we’d have lifted our game a little more we could’ve won the game. The next best thing is to tick on, keep your home record intact and move on.”

Etheridge; Peltier, Manga, Morrison, Bennett; Damour (Tomlin 69), Bamba, Ralls; Mendez-Laing, Hoilett (Feeney 83), Zohore.
