MATCH THREAD: “ CARDIFF CITY v MANSFIELD TOWN " MATCH THREAD

We deserved that goal

Totally outplaying them

Fish

Half time and it's 1-0 to CCFC. Salech & Robinson seem to keep trying to lay it off to each other rather than having a go themselves, other than that we seem to be in control but another goal or two wouldn't go amiss.

Very professional first half. Given Turnball some credit, hes played well. Wintle has been excellent so far. Have to go for the kill now though and finish them off early second half. Willock should enjoy himself agsinst this lot.

They’ll be different second half, we need to pounce on the space they’ll leave early on to stop them playing.

Nice to see us whipping balls into the box, Salech will be disappointed not to have scored

Mansfield pressure

Mansfield miss golden opportunity

Like I said at half time, we could do with another goal or two & they're getting closer & closer to an equalizer.

Joel colwill replaced Isaak Davies

Willock replaced Robinson

Like I said at half time, we could do with another goal or two & they're getting closer & closer to an equalizer.

I agree

Salech makes it 2-0 with a header & then misses a sitter after being gifted the ball by the keeper who atones for his error with a diving save, anywhere else & it would have gone in. Cardiff back on top though & now with a little breathing space.

Another Schmeicel in goals for the opposition

Robertson on for Turnbull who has had a good game.

Well it was brilliant olay by Lawler and Kpacio for the second goal.we took off Robinson who had one touch (a hedar in 17 mins of the 2nd half. We brought on some players with pace and hard work and what a difference some youthful enterprise has made. We should be 4 or 5 up now. Totally different approach getting forward to support Salach who could (and maybe should) have had a hat trick.

Ashford makes it 3-0 with 3 minutes left on the clock.

6 minutes of added time on top of the 90.

We have done enough to win this easily.

If they kept it tight it would have always been a chance for them to peg us back, 3-0 a fair result. Salech could have had a handful

What is impressive is we are lobbing crosses in, varied, deep in swingers, drilled, floated, we’ve had plenty of chances as a result.

Good Win yesterday - Busy December ahead for Us
