MY VIEW / OPINION:
BLACKBURN SNATCHED A DRAW IN THE LAST MINUTE & TO BE HONEST WAS WELL DESERVED
PROMOTION FINALLY FINISHED
Cardiff put out a very strong team.
Four changes to the starting XI - Smithies, NG, @joshmurphy65 & @harrywilson_ came in!
Blackburn before today had only won one game in their last 14 Championship games.
Blackburn were also without a goal in their last 6 games.
Great to see Jordi Osei-Tutu back after injury, but shocking Lee Tomlin still unfit.
Man of the match the Cardiff woodwork
First-half: For me Cardiff dominated the half 1-1 Smithies was awful in the way he let Blackburn equalise
Second-half: Blackburn hit the post twice & also hit the bar. City were no where near as good
CARDIF CITY 2 BLACKBURN 2
H-T 1-1
Cardiff City: Smithies; Nelson, Flint, Brown; Sang, Vaulks, Pack, Ng; Wilson, Murphy, Moore.
Subs: Phillips, Osei-Tutu, Ralls, Williams, Colwill, Hoilett, Ojo, Watters, Harris.
24th min: Personally I believe the Blackburn keeper should of been sent off.
Harry Wilson was sent through by Pack, he nicked it around the keeper who took him down, denying what appears to be a clear goalscoring opportunity.
But after Flint and Nelson came sprinting up the field to demand a red card, but Kaminski gets only a yellow.
27th min GOAL! Cardiff City 1-0 Blackburn Rovers (Vaulks 27)
Goal! Vaulks from a free-kick!
Wilson layed it off to Moore, who blasted it low and under the wall. Kaminski could only get a hand on it and tip it into the bottom corner.
1-0 and Cardiff have more than deserved it.
43rd min: GOAL! Cardiff City 1-1 Blackburn Rovers (Armstrong 43)
Goal! Rovers equalise against the run of play.
Harvey Elliott played a lovely ball in behind the defence and finds Amstrong, who turned Ciaron Brown before firing low and it beats Smithies at the near post.
The keeper could of done more there,way more awful by Smithies
H-T 1-1
50th min Blackburn hit the post.
60th min; Joe Ralls on for Josh Murphy.
66th min Blackburn hit the post again.
69th min Bar! Barry Douglas smacked a free-kick at the woodwork. City were clinging on here.
GOAL! Cardiff City 2-1 Blackburn Rovers (Ralls 70)
Ralls scores!
He intercepted the keeper's ball out and layed it off to Wilson, who in turn slid him in on goal.
Ralls took it coolly with his right foot to slot it home and give City the lead.
Five subs for Rovers.
Brereton, Dolan, Holtby, Downing and Davenport all on. wow
Blackburn deservedly equalised 90th min
UP NEXT: Friday April 16th Live SKy 6pm Reading v Cardiff City
