As expected, Jaap Stam’s men enjoying plenty of possession early on.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:05 pm
So Gunter has started on the left of the defence, and McCleary in a right wing-back role.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:07 pm
Some casual defending by Peltier is nearly punished as Swift nips in - Kelly shoots, and Bamba blocks.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:08 pm
Noise
Plenty of noise coming from the away end. More than 2,000 fans have made the trip from Cadiff.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:08 pm
Chance
The ball is pumped long to Zohore who does well to drive toward goal but his long range shot is easily blocked.
Reading go up the other end and win a free kick 30 yards from goal.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:09 pm
Yellow - Sol Bamba has his name taken early as Beerens breaks away and gets taken down.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:10 pm
McCleary forces the first save - plays a one-two with Swift, but McGregor holds well.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:11 pm
Shot
Garath McCleary shoots from range but his shot is easily saved by McGregor.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:12 pm
A brief stoppage as Moore and Hoilett clash heads, but they're both fine to continue.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:13 pm
Injury
Gunnarsson goes down injured. He doesn’t look good at all.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:19 pm
Healey
It’s his first start for the Bluebirds, and Rhys Healey looks very keen to make an impression, winning a 50:50 header and getting himself around the pitch.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:19 pm
Ease
McCleary waltzes his way past Jazz Richards before floating a cross into the penalty area, but McGregor gathers it with ease.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:19 pm
no goals yet. McCleary with the best chance so far.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:20 pm
McCleary receives from Williams on the right, cuts in on the left and floats in a curled cross - McGregor gets to it first.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:21 pm
Really good chance goes begging. McCleary leaves Richards in his wake, squares - Swift steps over it and Williams can't get a true touch
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:22 pm
Ralls hits the post with a header
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:23 pm
Huge chance for the Bluebirds as Gunnarsson whips in a free kick, Reading clear the ball to Ralls who thumps a shot onto the post. Massive chance.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:23 pm
Looks like Williams wasn't expecting it to come to him, and it squirms off his toe agonisingly.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:25 pm
Beerens is incensed as the ball appears to strike Morrison's hand as he was played through - the claims fall on deaf ears.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:25 pm
gmccleary12 drives past Cardiff's Jazz Richards as he look for options ahead.

Midway through first half. Kermorgant has made a couple of good defensive headers, and Kelly has nipped in ahead of Hoilett a few times.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:27 pm
Possession
Some lovely play between Rhys Healey and Kenneth Zohore as Cardiff keep possession well.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:33 pm
Roy Beerens beats Cardiff's Sol Bamba but is then brought down by the defender as he runs towards goal.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:33 pm
Cross
Rhys Healey plays a lovely pass to Junior Hoilett on the right but the winger’s cross is deflected into the hands of Ali Al Habsi.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:35 pm
Scrappy game
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:36 pm
Foul
Free kick for the Bluebirds on the left wing after Ralls was brought down.
Junior Hoilett whips it in and Morrison’s header goes over.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:37 pm
Morrison's flicked header drifts just wide of goal. (0-0)
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:39 pm
Healey
Healey does well to win Cardiff a free kick on the half way line.
He’s looking very positive so far.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:40 pm
Stoppage - Van den Berg appears to have pulled up with an injury. Doesn't look good.
Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:42 pm
L_Kelly95 closes down Joe Ralls in midfield as he looks to win back possession for the Royals.
