Cardiff Outplay Owls But Lose !

Cardiff City suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of relegation threatened Sheffield Wednesday after the Owls scored a 1-0 victory at Hillsborough.


The result was somewhat harsh on Cardiff after they dominated the first half with youngster Aaron Ramsey prominent. Cardiff looked the more threatening but failed to create clear chances and Wednesday took the lead after the gigantic Showumni beat Purse to head back into Tudgay’s path for the striker to finish clinically.


The second half saw a more confident Wednesday side, Cardiff had spells of pressure but the ball wouldn’t drop for them and several good chances went begging for the Bluebirds.


Sheffield continued to defend resolutely and would the clock down to score a valuable home win and deal a further blow to Cardiff’s dwindling play-off push. Cardiff deserved at the very least one point, more probably all three but it was not to be and it’s a fourth game without victory for Cardiff City.
