Cardiff 0 - 1 Wolves: The Verdict

[Alan]

Cardiff make you earn everything you get off them, and boy did we earn it.

Great performance, great defending. Shows the growth of this team that today we've faced the absolute archetype of "Championship football" and come out on top.

And after those late penalties, good Lord.

I'm gonna go have a lie down.

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

I can't believe what I've just watched.

I'm a wreck.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Yeeeeeesssssssssssssssssssssss. I am exhausted!

 

[NoodleWolf]

What.

Just happened?

 

[Alan]

Fucking mental.

Good to see Warnock losing gracefully, telling Nuno to fuck off all the way across the pitch.

 

[nimrod]

I CANNOT SPEAK!

Fucking ace.

 

[t3ch]

I'm getting a bit annoyed with these games where it just feels like we do nothing but defend for the last 20 minutes. we were lucky to win that. two stupid penalties within a minute of each other, 3 minutes into stoppage time?

jota and bonatini terrible-- bonatini shouldn't be starting another game until promotion is secured. costa made an immediate impact. ruddy with a fantastic save on the first penalty.

almost as hard earned of a win as last game.

 

[Jack Regan]

Insane! Mad! Incredibly bad on the old ticker.

 

[Alan]

I $#@!ing hate teams like Cardiff, everything I hate about English football, literally just lump it into the box for 90 minutes until you get your spawny goal. They'll come up with us but hopefully get crushed next year

Their lead on Fulham is only five points and they don't have a game in hand anymore. Fulham could very reasonably catch them now.

 

[Premier Quality]

Shit the bed - we were pretty comfortable until injury time!

 

[Tredman]

Costa looked quality, but what a fucking match.

 

[Jabbawolf]

Ruddy was ace all game. Bennett solid. Nuno got the starting XI wrong, but we won, and Colin’s pissed.

 

[AndyWolves]

I think we might go up this season

 

[The Bear]

About time their late goal bullshit came home to roost.

SUPERB defending apart from a silly push and a crazy slide challenge.

Coady was my MOTM until injury time. Boly gets the nod now.

 

[arklowolf]

Don't make it easy do we. Just recovering. 2 stupid penalties. We got lucky for a change.

 

[YoungWolf]

Shit the bed - we were pretty comfortable until injury time!

Agree, and then all hell broke loose!!

John Ruddy has taken some fucking flak on here - what a hero.

 

[Boozad]

These Friday night games are pretty fucking intense! We should have killed it off with Costa's chance really but that's the best three points I think I'll ever witness.

The difference Costa and Cav made in the second half was immense, I really hope you could see the difference Alan.

 

[east-coast-wolves]

Don't think we deserved to win that tbh. But I am not complaining. Exceptional defending for 90 minutes. Then what the fuck Cav and Coady thought they were doing I have no idea. Got away with it, big time.

We were much more dangerous with even just Costa on the pitch. Did Nuno get it wrong, or did he plan on just not conceding for minutes and then having a go? If so, I'd rather not see it again, even if it did work.

 

[YoungWolf]

Ruddy was ace all game. Bennett solid. Nuno got the starting XI wrong, but we won, and Colin’s pissed.

I thought Nuno got it spot on tbh

 

[Parkins left foot]

Going to watch the golf now to calm down - glad that Jinky told me to out the room towards the end as that wouldn't have done my blood pressure any good
