MY VIEW: TODAY RIZA STARTED WITH AN ATTACKING LINE UP AND PL

MY VIEW: TODAY RIZA STARTED WITH AN ATTACKING LINE UP AND PLAYED SOME EXCELLENT FOOTBALL IN THE FIRST-HALF.

But once again sat back in the 2nd half and conceded, in my opinion losing 2 valuable points.

But Riza what happened to us in the 2nd - half ???



City are really down there now and needed a Win.

Two away games coming up QPR & Preston.


The match was entertaining and to be fair a lot of good football.


Both sets of fans were singing to the Ref your not fit to referee.

With Wednesday comfortably in Midfield. Cardiff desperately needed to win this after only 5 league wins from their last 25 games.








For play: The majority of the First-Half was all Cardiff, attacking and good football.

21st Min: From left to right! Good work from Salech to play in Alves down the left. He cuts in-field and finds Isaak on the opposite wing.
Davies beats his man and fires low into the corner to give City the lead! 1-0

A very well Deserved H/T 1-0





Second-Half:
61mins: Riza did it again sat back and guess what GOAL! Cardiff City 1-1 Sheffield Wednesday (Ihiekwe 61)
Goal. Ihiekwe heads home.

64th min:
Turnbull and El Ghazi on.
Mannsverk and Alves off.

City then created good chances.

77min Tanner replaced Isaak Davies.



85th min Meite replaced Salech







CARDIFF CITY 1 SHEFFIELD WEDNESDAY 1

H-T 1-0

Not winning at home we are only going one way league one

I think it wasn’t that we sat back, Wednesday changes put them on the front foot and we just didn’t react quick enough.

Had we weathered the storm and gone back to how we dominated the first half it would have been a good call, but the two half’s were a mile apart.

Davies and Ashford were great, Davies goal wasn’t a great hit but it was well finished if he meant it. The fact he looks to step in and shoot is promising as well, he really does mix it up by going to the by line and that keeps defenders true

I disagree that we sat back. Sheffield Wednesday made changes so that allowed them to start the second half by putting pressure on. They scored with their only real chance from a corner.

But we were the better team in both halves. Played well and deserved to win.

But performances don't matter at this stage, it's all about winning games and we didn't do that.

I think that's the best we've played for a long time. Take out Ng's pathetic attempt at a dive and giving them a free corner to which they scored, they never really threatened us. I don't agree that we sat back, they had the upper hand for 10 or so minutes but that was it.

That being said not winning this today could have massive implications on our survival. Luton gained two points on us and Derby still have to play.

They made 3 changes half time and completely changed the way the game went. Riza failed to react to it. The equaliser was coming and deserved.

Riza out

That was shit , sick of watching this shit

Sheff Wed are no mugs and I went into that thinking we would get nothing. We should have came away with all the points. Disappointed we didn't but if we do play like that we can get the points to stay up.

The best 1st half display from us all season.
Man of the match without a doubt is Issak Davies.
Did a wonderful job alongside Ashford.
QPR next up away and with a 3-1 loss I think we could get something there.

We are going down, end of. Riza should have been sacked a long time ago. It's no longer in our hands now. Derby win their next game we are in the bottom 3. Riza is pathetic and I am tired of the excuses.

The simple fact is we cannot defend a lead and that has been the case for months and that is down to the coaching team ….

Woeful finishing & defending.
You could see the team fading on 60 minutes.
Riza taking us down

Agree mate but Riza should have reacted immediately rather than wait for us to converse. Take off the second striker and ADD Turnbull to the midfield.

Derby Vs Preston Wendesday night if they win that we will be 3rd from bottom

Good football first half then take the lead and we all know what happens then it's the same old shit sit back and concede because you could see they had changed the system but we done nothing to change what they was doing

Great first half to be fair great effort.
Second half Wednesday changed it up and we didn't have an answer to it .
Add it to the list of games we should of one .It's game management and a weak defence that's cost us time and time again .So close to the drop zone now should of been 3 valuable points

Preston playing in fa cup tomorrow can't see them being up for facing Derby on Wednesday they are comfortable in mid table .I can't see beyond a Derby win

Can't agree that we sat back & invited pressure, thought we were on the front foot most of the game.

Gentlemen,

The game was 100% their to be Won, We smashed them First-half.

We let them right back in it the 2nd half.

Cried booed at full time.

The facts are their 5 Wins from 25 League have put us in a real relegation battle.

That’s 100% down to Riza.

First time it’s ever been out of our hands.

We showed how good this team is the first half.

The only thing I'm disagreeing about is that IMO we didn't sit back but that SW were better after their 3 subs at half time. We were still the better team & had NG smashed the ball into row z instead of falling over looking for a foul they wouldn't have score because I can't remember them coming close at all.

I agree we did not sit back like usual, but as soon as we started to
Let them attack us, bang what usually happens.

The IF has been RIZA’S words all season, if / but.


We were the better team by far.

Best display for a long time, yet we lost 2pts, it just can’t keep happening because we will go down at this rate.

No ifs or buts We have to Win games

Well I don't agree we sat back. Sheffield Wednesday were awful first half and changed their system to improve, that's why the game changed.

But I agree the only thing that matters is winning games and we didn't do that - that is on the manager.

Points over performances at this stage of the season.
