MATCH THRE: “ CARDIFF CITY v STOCKPORT COUNTY " MATCH THREAD

Stockport are a disgrace. Constant fouling all over the pitch. Weak ref again. Credit City for coming back. I hope City win the second half for Salech. My guess is thats his season over.

A disgrace this is how they play. Its no different to all season. We need to match it.

The ref is the issue in the first half.

We're playing ok. We can win this.

Sky Sports have now analysed the Salech clash and its 100% a deliberate elbow from Stockport centre half, Hills

I’m sure the EFL can take retrospective action against the player for this, and hopefully against their referee too!

It was clearly an elbow as soon as it happened. The CB had been leaving something on Salech right from the kickoff which is fine, but the elbow was really naughty and should certainly be looked at. He knew what he was doing for sure.

Perry Ng lifts a lovely cross to the back post and Callum Robinson closes in on it, but Joseph Olowu nods out for a City corner.

This game is backwards! When we had Salech on the pitch, we hardly put a cross in, but now he’s ff, we put in some beauts!

Time to show our mettle now!

Joel Bagan in the book. Cynical foul, tugging on his opponent's shirt.

Two key moments apart from the injury,Sajech should have scored and maybe Trott should palmed the shot out for a corner rather than straight back to them.

Thanks, Tim! Always difficult to be 100% in the moment!

Ollie Tanner tries his luck from the corner of the box, but again gives it too much air. Over the bar.

Their right back doesnt want to know. Switch and put Tanner on him!!

Cardiff resist cries of "shoot" from the crowd and work it wide. Trouble is, with Yousef Salech no longer on the pitch, City's forwards are all too small to win these aerial duels against the Stockport backline.

Alex Robertson's free-kick hits the wall and it ricochets out for a corner.

Why is Robertson taking free kicks from shooting positions just outside the box he's awful at them either hits the wall or row z

Cardiff playing a lot better this half

Stockport fly up the other end of the pitch and Josh Stokes is found in the box. Gabriel Osho flies in and puts his body on the line to block the shot.

I felt Trott was fouled then?

Joel C is doing a job on Norwood. Norwood hasnt had a sniff!

Joel Bagan tries his luck from 20 yards or so. He catches it sweetly, but it's always arcing wide of the post.

Their right back doesnt want to know. Switch and put Tanner on him!!

Why ? To give him a break ??

Tanner has been truly awful!!

A driving run through midfield from Ryan Wintle, but he and Callum Robinson aren't on the same wavelength and the ball through goes through to the keeper.

Stockport shot wide

Some of Tanner’s decision making today has been very questionable.

Tanner has been truly awful!!

He found Joel C for the goal and, whilst may not always play out, has been very direct. Decent performance for me

Ollie Tanner off for Chris Willock.

Joel Colwill off for Omari Kellyman.

A very good performance for me made the goal. Scares their defends he puts them under pressure. Best player so far for me.

Oliver Norwood flies through the back of Callum Robinson. No booking, though ??

Well it’s all about opinions!!

But he’s given the ball away more than any other City player and looks way off the pace to me.

Huddersfield are beating Bradford 1-0 but down to 10 men

Plymouth beating Luton 1-0

Good for us so far.

Dont lose!!

2 footed!! Ref's had a stinker, again.

Omari Kellyman is cautioned. Again a cynical one, pulling down Brad Hills on a marauding run into Cardiff's half.
