MATCH THREAD: " CARDIFF CITY v FULHAM " MATCH THREAD

Game kicks off; just about the same time as my nerves!

I can see my seat from here...!

C'mon City...!

Smithies tries to find Bacuna on the right but Bryan heads clear, throw-in to the Bluebirds on halfway.

Positive this, from City. Really sustained attack from the off.

Harrison Reed is down for Fulham and the game stops, it comes after he challenged Mendez-Laing.

Cairney is found down the Fulham left, but Morrison cuts out his ball which attempted to release Kebano.

Glatzel looks to break, but is hauled down by Michael Hector. Looks to be a stonewall free-kick but the referee waves it away.

Decordova-Reid runs into the City box but is easily thwarted

Moments later, he's back but Bacuna clears high for a corner from which the resulting melee sees City given a free kick

A cross is whipped in from the Fulham right and Bacuna can only hammer it over the bar for a corner to the visitors.

A training-ground move from Fulham sees Decordova-Reid turn it to Joe Bryan outside the box, but his shot from range is blocked.

City looking good

Fulham you can see have more quality, but City can win tonight

CLOSE! Bacuna strikes from just outside the box and Rodak's save parries the ball into the centre of the box. Glatzel and the Fulham defenders battle for it, just three yards out, but Rodak recovers to smother!

How did that stay out?

C'mon City...!

Saved on the line, great attacking football by Cardiff

SAVE! Lovely work from Cardiff again!

Lee Tomlin dinks in a terrific ball to Hoilett, who controls and lays off Glatzel, who swings a left foot from 12 yards out - but it's straight at Rodak!

Lee Tomlin once again

Ooooohhh!

Tomlin on fire and City go close again!

Ooooohhh!

Tomlin on fire and City go close again!

Lee Tomlin running the show

Tomlin goes down after landing awkwardly following an aerial challenge with Hector.

Tomlin ok

Fulham in the Cardiff half a little more and trying to play it around to stretch the City defence...

City resolute and holding their own!

Bacuna in a scuffle

Bacuna's throw-in is cleared from danger.

Throw to City and Morrison lurking but it's cleared to Bacuna, who does little with it

Drinks break!

Game restarts...

City quickly on the attack but Glatzel offside

We really should be ahead

Fulham just look to take the sting out of this, passing it along their back line, no real danger to City at the minute.

Glatzel is found with a stunning reverse pass from Marlon Pack.

He cuts inside and fires from 20 yards out, but miscues and Rodak collects easily.

Good move from City sees Glatzel shout from the edge of the area (Fulham's)

The right decision but it's easily saved

Fulham attack but City are resolute and s goodblocj from Sean Morrison eventually sees the ball up field

Great save from Smithies sees a good Fulham chance thwarted

The resulting corner comes to nothing
