Onwards And Cupwards!

It was Cardiff City's first home match of the 2017-18 season, in the newly named Carabao Cup (formerly League Cup) v Portsmouth. On 17 May 2008, Cardiff lost The FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium to Portsmouth 1-0, so it's always nice to beat them since!

Portsmouth went 0-1 ahead in the first half with an own goal by Cardiff's captain, Morrison. My blip photo shows Cardiff's equaliser by new signing Mendez-Laing three minutes into the second half.

The game went to extra time and Cardiff's full back, Halford, scored a scorcher in the last few minutes to give Cardiff a well deserved win over their old rivals. By that time my 8gb memory card was full!
