MATCH THREAD: “ CARDIFF CITY v LEICESTER CITY “ MATCH THREAD

Substitution: Meite on for Grant

The Bluebirds finallyhave a decent effort, which goes for a corner. Nothing from that and the game continues...

LATEST SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 1 LEICESTER CITY (40 mins)

It's Wintle, but there's a agood defensive header in there to clear it.

Bluebird free-kick from the right...

It's a good cross but batted away before Leicster gain a free-kick of their own..

What happened with Grant? The feed keeps cutting out.

Ralls shot is deflected wide. Better from Cardiff, who now have a corner just before the half-time whistle.

A disappointing way to go behind but it was another self-inflicted one...

A Bluebird attack brings a shot and a corner but again it is too easily dealt with...

Another late attack from the Blubirds sees another shot go sky-high...!

Only 0 - 1 though and an opporunity to reassess our play for the second half...

C'mon you Bluebirds...!

HALF-TIME SCORE: CARDIFF CITY 0 - 1 LEICESTER CITY (45 + 4 mins)

Ralls is having a nightmare with his corners.

much better 10 mins from city just need pressure and stop letting Leicester play out from the back. Shame the quality of the corners been poor.

Etete blasted a shot wide from.an angle

Pushed forward a bit more in the last 10 mins. Just a pity we were playing too defensively early on and gifted them a goal.

We've set up and concentrated really well. Leicester are outstanding at this level. In the final 5 minutes we've had chances. We need to be braver, we're not out of it. Dont expect anything but I am not unhappy with the performance. Hope Grant is ok. Did not look happy going down the tunnel.

Never a yellow for Ralls. Game’s gone. It’s gonna get to a point where slide tackling will be banned one day.

Bluebirds pressing at the start of the secon half but the referee gives a foul and a yellow card to Ralls for what looked to us a boidy goid challenge in midfield...

Ralls in the book. Goes through a Leicester player with a heavy challenge.

Meite barrels down the right-hand side, but eventually loses the ball. He had made some decent ground until then.

Oh FFS, the game is stopped for someone to tie their laces.

GOAL! LEICESTER CITY

A good one to be fair...

Cardiff had started to play

Rapid break from Leicester. Ng puts in a huge tackle to dispossess Daka, who would have been clean through, otherwise.

0-2

Leicester score again

2 avoidable goals.

Immature play from us.

2-0. Outrageous goal which now means game over. Time to chuck the darts on.

Bowler stood off lazy c**t, goal could of been prevented

Outrageous goal, but come from Bowler shitting out initially ffs

Fair play Leicester sold out their end over 3,200 fans

Lets be honest, Apart from 10 mins, we have looked very much second best. Has their goalie made a save??
…… But fingers crossed for something against the run of play.

Ralls off, Tanner on.

Bowler off, Colwill on.

All Leicester now and they ar controlling the game in 2nd gear with minimum effort. Seems they are reasonably content with the score and taking the opportunity to effectively 'rest' during a hectic period...

Robinson been a joke recently. Can’t trap the ball, can’t cross. No work.
Sooner we sell him, the better!

Etete off, Robinson on.

The difference in quality Chris is showing

Shame colwill moved to the wing,had 1 interception after a nice run after coming on in mid

Ng sticks a cross in - but it's deflected and Hermansen gathers. Shame, because Cardiff had a real chance to attack there. Just needed to miss the first man.
