1-1 I reckon hope I'm wrong and we can pull off a good 3 pts come on the City

All City so far

I'm going for 2-1 Cardiff

Now it's Charlton atracking and looking good

Cardiff on top

Whittingham is causing massive problems with his delivery from set pieces

From his latest free kick Morrison was just off target with his header.

More Cardiff pressure

Another good attack from Cardiff

Jones on the charge and pulled ball back for Mason, but pass was just behind him, Mason still retained possession and shot on the turn, but that effort was blocked.

Off the line!

It’s a left footed inswinger but Cardiff deal with that, although Kenwyne Jones almost puts ball into his own net.

A second Charltion corner and it’s headed off the line by Jones.

6 shots to 2

On the evidence so far Cardiff ought to win this one, but they need a goal.

They have had six shots to Charlton’s two so far

37 - Outstanding save from Simon Moore to deny Watt's close range header. Truly incredible stop. (0-0)

Fabio having a stormer

The Brazilian is willing to get forward on the right, even though he doesn’t have Ralls protecting him as usual.

40 - Pilkington's rasping drive deflected over the bar. (0-0)

41 - Massive call from the referee! Pilkington plays Mason through, he rounds Pope, who brings him down. Mason booked for simulation. (0-0)

In the 40th minute Mason rounded the keeper for what looked like a certain goal to be in my mind brought down, yet the Ref booked Mason

0-0 half time

In the 40th minute Mason rounded the keeper for what looked like a certain goal to be in my mind brought down, yet the Ref booked Mason

Looked a blaten pen to me, linesman even flagged it as one

Second half starts come on Cardiff

Joe Mason's header goes inches wide of the post. Unlucky

49 - Goal for Charlton. HT sub Karlan Ahearne-Grant slots in. (0-1)

53 - Instant response! Joe Mason slots in at close range! Deserved! (1-1)

Goal City 2-1 Morrisson (76 min)

80 - Mason close to his second and City's, firing just over. (2-1)

85 - Final #CardiffCity change: Joe Mason leaves the field of play to a deserved standing ovation, replaced by Aron Gunnarsson. (2-1)
