MATCH THREAD: " MILLWALL v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREAD

Great stuff from Smithies.

Burke breaks free and goes one-on-one, bearing down on goal.

But the Cardiff keeper is quick to react, and smothers the MIllwall man's effort.

McGuinness is there to hoof clear, but it's only as far as Jed Wallace, who hits it over the bar from the edge of the area.

Millwall win a corner.

It's whipped in towards the near post and a mis-communication between Harris and Smithies sees the ball cannon of the former and out for another corner.

Hearts were in mouths a little there.

Second corner comes to nothing and Cardiff have a goal kick.

Doyle is doing his best to make something happen but it's just not clicking for him at the moment.

He wins a foul from Kieftenbeld, who looked to raise his hand into the face of the Man City loanee.

No card.

Doyle not happy, mind.

Another corner for Millwall.

Doyle whips it in, but it's punched clear.

Quite boring


That's the end of a pretty uneventful first half.

H-T 0-0

H-T 0-0

As you say quite boring so far but we're not losing so that's good.

Have to say a generally poor show. We have done nothing, neither have Millwall but they are probing and are having more creative possession.

We are coping well at the back, but please can we not give away easy possession time and again.

It's not a game for Harris, I would even plump for Hugill and Uche up front.

At the moment it has 0-0 or a narrow 1 goal loss written all over it.

I will take a point.

But my over all view is match nothing happening.

54th: Sub for Cardiff as Davies is on for Harris.


Harris did a few runs, but not good enough in my opinion.

A lot more lively in this second half.

Jed Wallace lets fly on the edge of the box with a daisycutter.

Afobe is there with a touch in the box

But it's over.

Afobe breaks through one-on-one.

Looks nailed on to put it in the net.

Wide.

Probably just as well that the flag is up then.

Davies lets fly with a low shot, but Bialkowski gets down well to palm away.

Hugill is lurking but can't turn in the rebound.

Goal kick.

Ralls delivers a corner into Flint at the far post.

Deflected behind for another corner that ultimately comes to nothing.

All Cardiff

Some class by Bagan

Brilliant run by Bagan, who sells a dummy to two Millwall players before turning into trouble.

He wins a corner, which is delivered in towards Hugill, whose bullet header is just over the bar.

Burke does well to shake off Wintle in the box, but Smithies is ther to get down and smother again.

Millwall man receiving treatment now.

Doyle cuts inside from the right and sends it over the bar.

Jed Wallace makes room for a shot from distance. It's hard and low, but just wide.

Double change for Millwall.

Burke and Mitchell are replaced by Bennett and Saville.

1-0

Free header

Free header

Awful defending.

Free header

Awful defending.

Dreadful

Another sub.

Doyle makes way for Vaulks.

Ikpeazu on for Cardiff now.

He replaces Hugill.

Can't see us getting anything here. Pretty sure the ref would agree with me.

2-0 thanks to more poor defending, 3 city players & 1 millwall player who walks away with the ball.
