MY VIEW: NATHAN TROTT WAS SUPERB AND WITHOUT A DOUBT WON THE GAME FOR CARDIFF CITY


FROM BOOS AT H/T CARDIFF CAME BACK TO WIN THE 3PTS


“ CARDIFF CITY ARE BACK ON TOP OF THE LEAGUE “



MAN OF THE MATCH CARDIFF GOALIE NATHAN TROTT / SUPERB SAVES AND WON THE GAME FOR CARDIFF IN MY VIEW:

Reading 27 Shots / Cardiff 11 shots

BUT 3PTS AND A WELL NEEDED WIN

FOUR CHANGES

But No Alex Robertson again.


Reading arrived in Cardiff 21st in the League and without an away win in the league.















FIRST-HALF:Reading well deserved their lead,with Cardiff defending to much and passing back way to much??

Shots :Cardiff 4 Reading 11
Possession Cardiff 64%


14min Reading hit the cross bar.

28min Great have by Trott , one on one ( Caused by a mistake by Osho again).

38min City passed back to Trott twice in a row for no reason, then bang Reading get the ball and shoot from no where, GOAL! Cardiff City 0-1 Reading (Wing)

40min Excellent save by Reading goalie

45min Osho passes back again a nearly another big mistake.

Booed off at h/t by City fans







SECOND-HALF: Cardiff improved but Trott was their Saviour


One change at the break - Will Fish replaced Osho.

46min Great Save by Trott again one on one.

Reading want a penalty NO

50min GOAL! Cardiff City 1-1 Reading (Kellyman)
Driving run from Kpakio, who feeds Kellyman and he dances his way into the box before shooting. Takes a deflection, and maybe the keeper should do better, but I doubt Cardiff will care.

57min another good save by Trott

63min Robinson and Davies replace Joel Colwill and Kellyman

65min GOAL! Cardiff City 2-1 Reading (Salech)
Davies slips in Kpakio, and the ball across finds Salech, who sweeps up more or less unchallenged.

73min Fish clears off the line

76min Trott gets yellow card for wasting time

78min Ashford replaces Willock

82min great save by Trott and then again a min later.



Then yet again Trott saves

88min Ashord replaced?? for NG

Reading were unlucky today but we’ll take the 3points well done Tinkerman from half time :D

Good result, if we keep getting the results with the poor showing first half we’re onto a good thing

Trott was unbelievable, reading will be disappointed they didn’t get anything from that

A win is a win but we got lucky and and great stops from Trott.Mid field was crap today.
This team could do with Robertson having a run of games.

We didn't play well and the first half was the worst this season.

But we did show good spirit to get those two goals in the second half.

Trott, Chambers and Fish (second half) were brilliant and got that win for us.

Trott saves us again and a special mention to Fish for that goal line clearance. I really don't understand how he can be dropped.

Subs made at the right time but CM is really concerning me now. Turnbull and Wintle can't play together. We’ve got a player like Robertson out in the cold so if J Colwill isn't at the races then we're really going to struggle.

Thought Chambers played well and kapkio was good going forward . Rubin still seems slow to me, I know he is big but I felt he is slow to react, I rate him so I hope we can get him in the position which suits him. I like Robinson starting upfront with Salech. Midfield was weak today. Loved the 3 points but were lucky Reading at at least 6 good chances. Goalie is top.

12 games is a good measure and we’re top and at worst 2nd if Stevenage win their game in hand.

Generally I’m happy but the defence needs to be settled and the front three too.

But nobody can say BBM has had a poor start. There are things to improve on but most would have taken this position after 12 games.
