MY VIEW/OPINION
EXCITING/END TO END AS CARDIFF CITY TODAY FINALLY WON THEIR FIRST MATCH THIS SEASON
TWO RELEGATION THREATED CLUBS FOUGHT AND BATTLED AGAINST EACH OTHER / BUT WARNOCKS TEAM GOT WHAT THEY DESERVED THE 3PTS
Gunnarsson, Murphy, Patterson and Reid all had a great game, plus over all the whole team gave everything and deserved the standing ovation by the Cardiff fans
The First-half Cardiff deservedly were leading, but allowed Fulham to make it 2-2 and finishing the half the better team.
The second-half was Cardiff and Fulham attacking each other non stop and it was anyones game.
Cardiff City went in to this match looking for their first win of the season whilst their opponents Fulham had just won once and had conceded 21 goals.
Fulham are the only side yet to keep a Premier League clean sheet this season.
