TONIGHT CARDIFF CITY IN VERY TOUGH CONDITIONS AND AGAINST A

TONIGHT CARDIFF CITY IN VERY TOUGH CONDITIONS AND AGAINST A VERY DEFENSIVE STEVENAGE GOT THE 3PTS

Callum Robinsons Strike in the 85min got the 3pts and a deserved Win against a very dirty and boring Stevenage side.

CARDIFF CITY STAY TOP OF LEAGUE AND INCREASE THEIR POINTS ADVANTAGE:


Tonight was a Massive 3pts





It was a dire game but how the hell are Stevenage 3rd from top as they put eleven players out to defend and play dire football?

But then the first shot on target was 77mins by Callum Chambers.

The match over all will not get fans rushing back to watch the two play each other again, it was that bad.





First-Half Not a Shot on Target by either team:
City did have 6-1 Shots and 70% Possession.
Cardiff played the better football but not much created in front of goal.
Over all a bit of a scrappy hand.




58min: Joel Colwill hit the crossbar

61mins: Omari Kellyman replaced Joel Colwill

80 mins: Turnbull, Isaak and Callum replaced Alex Robertson, Chris Willock and Cian Ashford

85mins: GOAL! Stevenage 0-1 Cardiff City (Robinson 85) And what a strike! Robinson!









OVER 90 MINS:

Stevenage Possession 38 % Shots 2 Shots on Target 0


Cardiff Possession 62 % Shots 11 Shots on Target 2





STEVENAGE ( 3rd ) 0 CARDIFF CITY ( Top ) 1

H-T 0-0

That was a gutsy professional away performance! Huge credit to the players, they all stood up to be counted tonight.

Similar kind of opponent to Port Vale (but better) earlier in the season and it shows how we are dealing with these threats better!

Nice to see us on the front attacking. A couple of years ago we would have been the team sitting back conseeding possession.
Hard old game and we stood up to it. Great goal top performance from all players and management.
Began top performance especially in the first half!

Well done all! :bluebird: :bluebird: :bluebird: :bluebird: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :santa: :santa: :reindeer: :reindeer:

Stevenage had no intention to play football. Just endless long balls and endless fouls.

Glad we didn't let them bully us.

A big win and puts us in a great position. Guaranteed to be top at Christmas if we win on Saturday.

BBM subs were spot on again.

Perhaps we can now put an end to posters referring to the manager as Tinkerman and disrespecting him. He sets his teams up based on research he has done before the game, and late on in the game tonight, had the courage to go for the win rather than settling for the point.

Long may he tinker.

One for the Callum Robinson haters. His experience will be valuable this year .

I totally agree. I've never called him that word because I think it's not right for a manager that is doing well.

He always respects the fans, and they should respect him.

His way is making changes to the team and it's working.

Stevenage were very disappointing tonight. They had the bigger side but did not use it to ther advantage. They were playing for the draw which came obvious from the early stages. Thats always a dangerous ploy and they paid for it in the end.

Lets not take anything away from our performance. You can only play what is against you and although it was a late 1-0 win they don't come any easier than that. So for me its 3 points and no injuries.
