Newcastle beat Reading for first win
Dwight Gayle (2), Matt Ritchie and Isaac Hayden on target
Blackburn's Shane Duffy scores two own goals and is sent off
Josh Scowen gives Barnsley 3-2 win over QPR
Bolton and Fleetwood win in League One
And as Shane Duffy no doubt sits quietly in a corner somewhere in the away dressing room at Cardiff, that's where we'll leave it for the evening.
Plenty of EFL action to talk about, so be sure to check out all our reports from tonight's games.
We'll be back with more action at the weekend. Until then....
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Image source, Rex FeaturesPoor old Shane Duffy, what did he do to deserve that this evening?
Two own goals and then a late second yellow card to get sent off.
Michael Pearlman watched it all unfold for BBC Sport and he can tell the full story.
Championship:
Newcastle 4-1 Reading
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Barnsley 3-2 QPR
League One:
Bristol Rovers 1-2 Bolton
Fleetwood 2-0 Oxford United
...Josh Scowen there for Barnsley, who was just one of the evening's headline makers in the Championship, grabbing a late goal to beat QPR.
A summary of the night's scorelines on the way.
Well, that wasn't too bad for talking points was it?
Image source, Rex FeaturesIt's all over in League One as well now, and the two sides who had the lead have held on.
Bolton go top of the table after maintaining their 100% record by winning 2-1 at Bristol Rovers, thanks to goals from Josh Vela and Jay Spearing.
And Fleetwood also have three points as David Ball and Ash Hunter were on target in their 2-0 win over Oxford.
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
And the final whistle blows at Cardiff City Stadium.
The hosts get the win, but the night is all about Blackburn's Shane Duffy rather unfortunately.
Two own goals from the centre-back and then a second yellow card deep in added time as he tried to rescue a point.
Cardiff will probably care little as it means their first three points of the season.
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Image source, Rex FeaturesOh no Shane Duffy! As if his night couldn't get any worse?
He's shown a second yellow card as he kicks the ball away after conceding a free-kick with Blackburn pushing for that second goal.
Red card comes out and he will take a slow walk off down the tunnel.
In case you weren't with us earlier, that red card adds to his two own goals in the first half.
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Blackburn push forward for an heroic equaliser, but leave space at the back for Cardiff to counter...
Barnsley 3-2 QPR
Grant Hall's dismissal was just about the last act at Oakwell as the final whistle blows.
After losing at Ipswich on the opening day, Barnsley have bounced back with back-to-back home wins over Derby and QPR.
By the sounds of things, the Barnsley fans are pretty chuffed.
Quote MessageThere is nothing more uplifting for Barnsley fans than to see their side show a lot of fight and skill. They have seen their side go 2-1 down but they have had the spirit to get back into it.
Derrick Palmer, Ex-Barnsley striker on BBC Radio Sheffield
Barnsley 3-2 QPR
Is that it for QPR? Grant Hall pulls down Stefan Payne and is shown a second yellow card.
Rangers, who led 2-1 at Oakwell, are going to finish with 10 men.
Newcastle 4-1 Reading
Image source, Rex FeaturesAll over at St James' Park and Newcastle have their first points of the Championship season.
It looked a bit dicey for Rafael Benitez at the break after Reading had equalised from the spot.
But, two goals in the second half from Dwight Gayle and a Matt Ritchie penalty saw them roar home.
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Five minutes added on at Cardiff.
Nervy finish for Paul Trollope's side after they seemed in cruise control.
Fantastic second half at Oakwell and it looks like the hosts may have grabbed all three points.
Injury time approaching in all our games tonight.
Barnsley 3-2 QPR - Josh Scowen (89 mins)
It looks like QPR's unbeaten start is about to come to an end as Josh Scowen converts Stefan Payne's cross on the half-volley from inside the box.
Quote MessageIt's a great tactical decision from Paul Heckingbottom, taking off a centre forward in Marley Watkins, putting on a holding midfielder and letting Josh Scowen bomb on - and he has the goal.
Rob Scott, Ex-Fulham defender on BBC Radio London
Newcastle 4-1 Reading - Gayle (89 mins)
Turning into a very comprehensive victory for Newcastle after that wobble before half-time.
Isaac Hayden, scorer of their opener, heavily involved in this one as he found space down the right.
He squared it inside to the area and it falls to Dwight Gayle for a second of the night and a close-range finish.
We're into the final few minutes of our two games in League One and as it stands Bolton and Fleetwood are both on course for three points.
The Trotters still lead 2-1 at Bristol Rovers, who have just gone close through Jermaine Easter, while the Cod Army are easing towards a 2-0 win over Oxford.
Barnsley 2-2 QPR
Been a very entertaining evening so far at Oakwell with four goals.
Can either side come up with a winner in the closing minutes?
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn
Blackburn rallying late-on after Danny Graham forced them back into things...
Cardiff 2-1 Blackburn - Graham (77 mins)
Third goal of the night at Cardiff...
Set for a nervy finish?
Quote MessageBlackburn score with their first real opportunity as Danny Graham keeps his composure where Anthony Pilkington could not do so earlier. It's game on now, even though Blackburn have struggled.
