TONIGHT CARDIFF SHOWED THE QUALITY THEY REALLY HAVE AND OUT

Tue Oct 28, 2025 9:52 pm

TONIGHT CARDIFF SHOWED THE QUALITY THEY REALLY HAVE AND OUT PLAYED CHAMPIONSHIP WREXHAM TO REACH THE QUARTER-FINAL OF THE LEAGUE CUP.


What a Different Side Cardiff looked tonight compared to the last 6 weeks, played like they did at the beginning of the season, played superb and passed with quality and attacked time after time, looked confident again.


Absolutely loved watching tonight’s game as we looked the club from the higher division.

BBM got it spot on tonight.




“ONE TEAM IN WALES “



FIRST-HALF: Cardiff hit the post 3 times


Rubin hit the crossbar.

Cardiff had 15 Shots / Wrexham 4 Shots

Cardiff had 4 on target / Wrexham 0

14mins: Cardiff Deservedly took the lead
Goal Cardiff! Salech taps home! 0-1

It's not one George Thomason will want to see back. He plays an awful ball which Rubin Colwill cuts out. He feeds Omari Kellyman, who slides a low shot bound for the corner of the net. Callum Burton dives to his right and manages to tip it - but only into Yousef Salech's path and he can tap home into an empty net.

Cardiff continued to press Wrexham and should have Scored more goals.


Best Cardiff have played for over a month.











SECOND-HALF:

Isaak replaced Omari Kellyman for the second half.

Half-time subs for Wrexham.
Kieffer Moore on for Sam Smith., Matty James on for Ollie Rathbone.
Josh Windass on for Nathan Broadhead


52mins Ryan Longman’s cross found Kieffer Moore who headed past Nathan Trott 1-1

Wrexham now were the better team.

65mins Double City change: Alex and David replace Joel Colwill and Ryan Wintle


71min: Unreal volley from Fish! Couldn't have connected any better! Burton gets something on it but he cannot keep it out! City ahead once again! (1-2)


77mins: Wrexham Subs Ryan Barnett off and Issa Kabore on.
Conor Coady off and Ryan Hardie on.



81min: NG replaced Bagan

87 - Gabe replaced Ashford for the final minutes.













LEAGUE CUP 4TH RD


WREXHAM 1 CARDIFF CITY 2

Brilliant display and thoroughly deserved the win. For large parts, Wrexham just couldnt cope with us, with and without the ball.

Just superb. All the players proper up for it too!

Think that puts BBM right out there in the shop front window coz that style of play, when it works, it don't half look good!!!

They give Colwill too much space first half, I think second half they got tighter to him and doubled up to stop the control we had, as well as bringing on Moore who we know too well. We struggled to contain him and gave Wrexham an out ball.

One that not many have mentioned is Ashford, I was sure he was spent and couldn’t believe he was still on as he looked shattered, but when we were caught on the break he shifted some yards to get back and break the play up. He came off shortly after, but looks to have a good attitude which we have missed the last few years.

Great finish by Fish too

Didn’t see that coming tonight,expected a lose the way we’ve been playing but FairPlay every player tonight worked their socks off and deserved that win

Our quality showed and we were dominant in the game.
Surprised how poor Wrexham were especially in the 1st half where we should of been 3 goals up.
Every player put a shift in tonight and it shows that if you try hard enough in matches you can get the win.
Wrexham did not try nowhere near enough in the 1st half and that is why we won.

Outstanding all round. Great to see us getting more balls in the box.

Kellyman is a player and will get better, hopefully pulled as part of BBMs plan.

Colwill was outstanding and i was calling for him to have a spell on the bench.

They were all great.

Oh and Ashford played on the left and he looks so much better there than on the right

What a good win. Alot of players back to their best. The cup feels like they remove any shackles; BBM's challenge is to get that free-flow into the league.

Alot of great performances, but Bagan's ball onto Fish's toe-nail was sublime. That's 2 world class crosses in 2 games - this is a weapon that we need to start taking advantage of!


Time to start enjoying this season, knowing there will be bumps in the road??

Best performance under bbm never stopped chasing and wanting the ball.
29 shots 9 on target. The most pleasing thing for me was they brought on the big guns conceded straight away and showed some character to go win the game .
Thats is what cardiff city is all about long may a performance like that continue.
Just to add first half we absolutely smashed them
