MATCH THREAD: " CARDIFF CITY v FULHAM " MATCH THREAD

Cardiff needed those subs as they looked suddenly tired

Tomlin gets to the byline and thumps one across goal, but it's somehow cleared away by Fulham.

City starting to bite back and Tomlin asking questions...

C'mon City...!

Tomlin brings down Decordova-Reid on the touchline and it's a free-kick for Fulham near the corner flag.

Fulham free-kick

Easily caught by Smithies

Kebano skins Bacuna, who hauls back his opposite number. Another free-kick near the corner flag.

Bacuna booked

Fulham wasted that

Harrison Reed fizzes the free-kick well over the bar.

Let’s take a 1 nil loss and re group for the next game. Don’t loss 2 nil

City attacking

Fulham now attacking

Pack is dispossessed in a dangerous area and the ball is fed to Cairney, relatively unmarked, in the middle of the box. But the Scot fires at a defender. Big chance missed there.

Fulham look in control of this game

We Havent looked like scoring .....

Fulham look in control of this game

With only 22% possession I'd have to agree

We don’t seem to be able to hold onto the ball for more than a few passes....getting a bit of a possession lesson

Danny Ward / Joe Ralls wasted an attack

Where is our energy and heart tonight? This is lifeless. Frankly, we've not been in it at all. So disappointing.

Simply outplayed tonight

Jut need to see this game out with limited damage. We have not been in it at all and we will need to do some soul searching over the next 2 days. This reminds me of our play off games against West Ham. Very disappointing.

Managers been crap today Pack been awful and the subs were a joke. Why waste Tomlin out on the wing?

We’ve lost this playoff game because of the manager making idiotic decisions today.

Not much you can do, Fulham are just better. They play with fluidity in passing, we knock it around but with less pace and mobility.

Let’s take a 1 nil loss and re group for the next game. Don’t loss 2 nil

Could have jumped with enthusiasm and would have hit his head..

Two high quality goals give Fulham a well deserved win. We simply got outplayed tonight. Championship again next year. Not a hope of scoring 3 goals in London.

Got away with Pack one game but it hasn't worked this game. They are far superior to us. We haven't helped ourselves, why Glatzel starts is beyond me.

To be fair, that was a magical free kick and worthy of a goal

Sadly, it's for Fulham (aptly named Neeskens Kabano) and the game ends soon after

FINAL SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 2 FULHAM
