' MATCH THREAD ' CARDIFF CITY v NORWICH' MATCH THREAD

Now a chance for Whittingham to deliver a set piece from the right. It was aimed towards Bamba but had a little too much pace on it.

from what I can gather, Cameron Jerome is not the most popular figure today.

In dubai at the moment but have people using my ST & listening on CC Player.

End to end

Ruddy collects neatly and gathers his composure. Norwich, not exactly wobbling, but under more pressure in these last 10 minutes. Having said that.. Jerome gets away a snap shot but it’s straight at Ruddy.

The delivery runs through, but the hosts are beginning to see more and more of the ball.

Sub

Craig Noone comes on for Hoilett, who gets a high five from Neil Warnock.

72 - Another Cardiff change: Whittingham off, Healey on.

Twins

The Canaries make their own change with Josh Murphy coming on for Wildschut. Two twins on the pitch now for the visitors.

No penalty!

Penalty?? No, the referee gives a free kick the other way and shows a yellow card to Rhys Healey! The entire stadium was convinced he was foul...

Frustration sets in

There’ll be another card here as Cardiff steam forward and a cynical challenge comes in from one of the Murphy twins. A free kick for Cardiff in a good area.... Ralls whips it in but it’s lost on the edge of the box by Gunnarsson.

Nothing again from the ref...

Harris on the left now steams into the box and goes over. The referee isn’t interested AGAIN. And he incurs the wrath of the CCS by blowing up for a Cardiff foul. Neil Warnock is far from happy on the sidelines.

Warnock is fuming

Pinto is down on the edge of our box and he needs treatment.

Second @NorwichCityFC change: Oliveira replaces Jacob Murphy. (0-1)

Still time

There’s some real frustration knocking around Cardiff City Stadium now. Mainly aimed at referee Chris Kavanagh, but also at Norwich as Alex Neil’s side run the clock down. Still eight minutes plus added time though...

We're back underway and Pinto is back on

Time ticking by

Cardiff charge forward and Pinto breaks up the Bluebirds’ attack and wins Norwich some respite. The referee wants them to get on with it, with the ball in the corner.

Wes Hoolahan is replaced by Ryan Bennett is a defensive move by Alex Neil.

Norwich defence been solid all afternoon.

FT 1-0 Norwich.

Bitterly disappointing game for Cardiff. They just could break down a solid Norwich defence.
