TO BE FAIR TO CARDIFF TODAY THEY WORKED HARD & GAVE THEIR AL

TO BE FAIR TO CARDIFF TODAY THEY WORKED HARD & GAVE THEIR ALL FOR A VERY CREDIBLE AWAY DRAW:

I will take that a very valuable away point, now we must win our home games.

Cardiff under Riza have now only Won 1 from their 12 games / 8pts from 36pts.
If City want to Stay up they have to start winning and get a run going.

There was a Stark difference in how Cardiff attack compared to Boro. City were just searching for bodies and passes. Boro like a well-oiled machine (barring the offsides) pinging rapid passes and shifting Cardiff's defence about.

One thing I will say they are fighting for Riza, but then he is the one recommending the 12 players out of contracts , if they prove themselves.

If he’s staying then Tan needs to actually back him in January, not just loans and free transfers and apparently Tan will not be.

Boro had nearly 75% of the possession, but City’s defence played well.

For me Cian Ashford was everywhere for Cardiff.

Boro have been very unpredictable this season and seem to draw to many matches.

See Hull managed to draw with Top of the Championship Leeds.

Cardiff stay 2nd from bottom of the Championship:


FIRST-HALF:

After sustained Boro pressure, in the 11th minute Boro so easily sliced open Cardiff.

GOAL! Middlesbrough 1-0 Cardiff City (Latte Lath 11)
Way too easy. Doak gets down the outside of O'Dowda and fires a cross to the near post. Latte Lath gets across Goutas and turns home at the near post. To easy for the hosts at the minute

21st min: GOAL! Middlesbrough 1-1 Cardiff City (Chambers 21)
Goal! What a finish from Chambers!

The rest of the half was backs against the wall for City’s players.


SECOND-HALF:

Boro continued to go forward, but City stayed strong and defended well.

65th min: Tanner off, Willock on.

Chambers put a wonderful cross on to Colwill's head but he sent it inches wide!

79th min: Colwill off for Meite.
Ashford off for Bagan.

83mins Ralls on for Robertson.

City had to defend well.

A draw up there is a good result.

Let’s continue to build now.

Good point,in fact 5 points from last 3 games brilliant
Well done Oma,coaching staff and all the fans

Great point and nice to hear Cain Ashford is continuing to impress. Seems he has had a very positive impact on the last few games

A great away point, good battling performance in the second half.

That's a fabulous point. Finally starting to battle and grind out results.

Good point that we could and should have won it late on, Colwill should have buried that header

Brilliant effort from the 500 fans who made the long trip..safe journey back guys

Yes agree we could of

Battled again for the shirt and earned a great result. Just need to make that step forward now to win games .
Both hull and us show anyone can get results against the top half teams.

Great result today

Well done Oma,coaching staff and all the fans

Great away point now we need home wins

Yes your spot on there

Tbf the point is massive we worked hard all over the pitch. I feel Chambers mom with goutas and sio close 2nd Ashford also played well and tanner in stages. Colwill worked hard to get opportunities but apart from 1 at the end no clear cut chances

As the game went on it felt we were going to get a result from it.

Siopis dashing upfield was the highlight of a battling performance. Just wish we had someone upfront to tuck the goals away.

Richards Shaw seems to have made a difference with the defence

Great point today now get our home form sorted KTF BLUEBIRDS

We desperately need at least three forwards over this window!

Far more gritty and determined. It also coincides with NG being out. Rinomhota has been outstanding the last few weeks.

It also coincides with Chambers not pretending to be a center half, also with us stop believing we are Citeh and can pass our way into tap ins.

As long as they can win or draw, I would take that especially from home, we are lacking pace & skill on the wings, we are not getting decent crosses over, when we do there is no one there, let's keep it up, I can see an improvement.

Fair play I had this down as no chance happy with a point keep up the good work keep making me eat my words happy to do so

Players applaud the travelling City Fans :
