MY VIEW " CARDIFF CITY PUT IN A GREAT EFFORT BUT JUST FELL SHORT "


Cardiff City dominated the second half and deserved to at least be level on the tie but couldn't get the goal to equal the tie

Fulham go to Wembley to play Brentford in the play-off final on Tuesday



Cardiff City went into this game knowing they had to overturn a two-goal deficit to progress to the final and play Brentford


Neil Harris made three changes with Will Vaulks, Josh Murphy and Danny Ward all coming in

There was no Aleksandar Mitrovic for Fulham again


Smithies, Bacuna, Morrison, Nelson, Bennett, Pack, Vaulks, Ralls, Hoilett, Murphy, Ward




Anthony Knockaert nearly extended Fulham's lead in the first couple of minutes but his shot was straight at Alex Smithies

Marek Rodak tipped over from a Will Vaulks long throw

GOAL: FULHAM 0-1 CARDIFF CITY - Curtis Nelson headed in from the resulting corner :ayatollah:

GOAL: FULHAM 1-1 CARDIFF CITY - Straight from the kick off, Neeskens Kebano went up the other end to equalise on the night for Fulham

Junior Hoilett won a couple of dangerous free kicks in the first 20 minutes, but neither came to anything

Sean Morrison made a crucial goal-saving challenge on the half hour mark to stop Bobby Decordova-Reid

Smithies made a great save to deny Knockaert

Morrison booked in the 35th minute for handball

Danny Ward shot over from distance in the 38th minute

Leandro Bacuna booked in first half stoppage time for pulling back Kebano

Cyrus Christie's shot from distance was well saved by Smithies, before Knockaert's shot was deflected wide


HALF TIME: FULHAM 1-1 CARDIFF CITY (3-1 ON AGGREGATE)

Neil Harris brought on Lee Tomlin and Nathaniel Mendez-Laing for Marlon Pack and Junior Hoilett at the start of the second half

GOAL: FULHAM 1-2 CARDIFF CITY - Another long throw into the box and Lee Tomlin put the ball in the net to give City the lead on the night

Decorodova-Reid booked for Fulham in the 50th minute

Vaulks booked in the 52nd minute

Rodak booked for time wasting in the 59th minute

Joe Ralls booked in the 61st minute

Smithies made a brilliant save in the 67th minute to deny Kamara

In the 68th minute, Smithies made an outstanding save to deny Kamara

Christie booked for Fulham in the 70th minute

Robert Glatzel replaced Danny Ward in the 71st minute

Fulham somehow survived a goalmouth scramble with Rodak making a brilliant save in the 72nd minute

Michael Hector headed wide from a corner in the 76th minute

Mendez-Laing shot just wide from distance in the 78th minute

Callum Paterson replaced Josh Murphy in the 81st minute

Lee Tomlin got injured in the 84th minute and was replaced by Gavin Whyte

Five minutes were added on

Glatzel volleyed over in the 95th minute


FULL TIME: FULHAM 1-2 CARDIFF CITY - 3-2 ON AGGREGATE

My MOTM was Alex Smithies :thumbright:

Well I must say we were superb.

I wasn’t a fan when Harris came in but with a pre season and a few new players we will do well again next season.

Whatever a great season in the circumstances bring on 20/21.

Yes great effort to get to lay offs but let’s be honest Fulham were streets ahead of us in midfield. So when are we going to see better footballers than Ralls, Paterson, Glatzel and others?

Harris has got to find some players with better basic skills, pace and ability to pass forwards on the deck.

Not another season of Ralls and Pack and Paterson please :roll:
