Review
A great last 5 minutes, but a terrible first 90 minutes. Another red card (Thomas Lam this week), another late goal, and again it was too late and too messy, especially when Assombolonga argued with Lansbury over who should take the penalty. Cardiff should have scored more, but again we just didn't try for the majority of the game. Another deserved loss.
