Cardiff strikes back to score a point at St Andrews

Cardiff City had a wonderful counterattack in the second half, scoring a point in the St Andrews game against Birmingham City.

Troy Deeney and Ivan Sunjic's counter-attack goals allowed the home team to control the home team at the end of halftime, after which a late strike by Kieffer Moore led the away team Here comes the lifeline that deserves it.

When Mark McGuinness rose to the highest point in stoppage time to go home, Manchester City won a good score on death.

The result retains Cardiff's unbeaten record on the road under the leadership of Steve Morrison, and he will once again be pleased with the character displayed by his team.

But there must be some cause for concern. On the defensive side, the Blue Jays have been exposed by the hosts many times, and it is understandable that they are frustrated when they are full-time.

Peterborough's victory over Millwall means Cardiff is still in trouble at the other end of the standings, with only three points between Cardiff and the relegation zone.

Morrison knew that before the difficult Christmas schedule, next week's game against Derby County had to add points on the board.

However, Cardiff's never-giving up attitude is driven by the obvious buzzing team spirit, which is very commendable, especially behind the performance.

Morrison returned to the same side where he recently defeated Lutontown in Kenilworth, except for the suspended Sean Morrison, Jolars took the captain's armband.

Moore and Rubin Colewell returned to the starting lineup, Cardiff started on the front foot of the second city, and the two combined well with James Collins in the dynamic top three.

Moore saw the goal early, and just three minutes later, Collins' cross was hit and crossed the crossbar.

Three minutes later, after paying tribute to the young Arthur Labinjo-Hughes, Birmingham responded. Only a few inches from breaking the deadlock, Sunjic saw The effort drilled in the distance went wide of the goalpost.

But Cardiff was still a threat in the last third, with Aden Flint's header directly into the arms of Matia Sakic.

Nelson scored with a header half an hour ago, but Cardiff's enthusiasm for the start will disappear in a few seconds, as Birmingham cut through the Blue Jays defense with a clinical counter.

Riley McGree slipped and slipped in Deeney, and the latter gave Perry Ng a nutmeg before taking the time to pick his place and go home one-on-one. .

Before today, only Blackpool had won more points than the Blue Jays for losing their position. But Cardiff, after such a bright start, was clearly disturbed.

Christian Pedersen almost doubled the lead after blowing a free header on the crossbar five minutes before the halftime break, and Cardiff's defensive weakness on the counter was exposed again at halftime.

Deeney and McGree reconnected again. The latter defeated Curtis Nelson to gain a foothold for Sunjic, who swept the home court with a simple finish.

Had it not been for McGuinness's excellent blocking, McGlynn could have made it to the scoring list, and shortly after Ryan Giles was rejected at the other end, Dini glanced at the free header.

Morrison had seen enough and made three changes in four minutes. Wilvox almost instantly impacted from the bench and directly scored a low free kick directly into Sakik’s arms. .

Given their outstanding performance against Sheffield United last weekend, Mark Harris and Isaac Davis may consider themselves unlucky because they started the game on the bench and again when Cardiff tried to chase the game. It had an impressive impact.

It was Harris who was at the center of Cardiff's potential recovery, hitting for Moore from the edge of the penalty zone, despite a trace of luck, and City No. 10 made no mistake in driving home to the corner.

After so much panting, Cardiff was finally surging again, although Alex Smith had to do his best to stop Jordan Graham's free kick midway through the second half.

Moore then saw a low-intensity effort gathered at the other end, as the visitors wanted to turn the screw, although Chuks Aneke should probably keep the game out of sight, bounce a half volley after Dini’s flick, in Bench a few seconds after leaving the goal.

But Cardiff survived and paid off in the first minute of stoppage time, as McGuinness helped Lars take a corner kick for his third goal of the season, saving most likely for his team. A very valuable point.
