It's a vital win for Huddersfield, who are now three points clear of Reading with a game in hand over the Royals.

They have the daunting task of facing Sheffield United next, before what could be a thrilling final-day decider against Reading!

For Cardiff, it was job done on Thursday for the most part, and they looked weary at times against a well-rested Huddersfield side.

Take nothing away from the visitors though, they deserved the victory despite a late rally from Cardiff.

Cardiff face champions Burnley at Turf Moor on the final day of the season.

Thank you for joining us this afternoon, and enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Huddersfield manager Neil Warnock told Sky Sports:

“That’s up there with one of my biggest wins.

“We’ve really scrapped to get the goals. I knew we needed to get that second but I thought we deserved to get more goals in the second half.

“I’m such a proud manager. I couldn’t have asked for more from the lads and we’re really chuffed with the result.”

On next game against Sheffield United: "They've done so well to get promoted but we've been on the front foot and we'll do that again.

"There was no talk today about losing or a draw and we will have a go at Sheffield."

Man of the match, Huddersfield's Matt Pearson, told Sky Sports:

“It's just a feeling of relief. Survival is in our hands. It’s obviously in our favour but we can’t get too carried away.

“We’ve got a game at a time and we’ll just focus on Sheffield United now.”

Once they took the lead, Huddersfield had the passion.

You have to praise Huddersfield for causing the mistakes from Cardiff, pressuring them high and getting the rewards.

We've seen some good goals from Huddersfield and one by Cardiff which gave them a late rally towards the end of the match.

We didn't get relegated this time but it is approaching.

There will be some fans who will be making a choice about season tickets next year and Cardiff have it all to do.

As he did while manager at Cardiff City, Neil Warnock does his fist-pump send off to the Bluebird fans.

Both sets of fans chant "One Neil Warnock", and they are not wrong.

A master of the game at this level.

It was silly errors from Cardiff, Huddersfield were unlucky not to get a third too by hitting the post and bar.

Huddersfield survive the Cardiff fightback!

After a dreadful first half the game came to life after the break.

Substitute Joseph Hungbo gave the Terriers the lead after some awful Cardiff defending, and an own goal from Jack Simpson looked to have put the game to bed.

But Cardiff found a late way back into the game when replacement Isaak Davies flicked in a cross to make it 2-1.

And the hosts almost earned a late draw but Rubin Colwill was denied by the save of the game from Lee Nicholls.

The travelling fans are celebrating away to my right, and their players deserve he applause for their efforts today.

They are not safe yet, but one more point will do it.

It is a Huddersfield throw right by their own corner flag.

The whistles are coming out of the away end, they want full-time to come as quick as possible.

Cardiff take the corner short, and look for Rubin Colwill on the edge of the area, but the Wales international drags his shot wide.

More vital seconds drift away.

Cardiff need some urgency here. They are too slow.

You just feel there is one more chance in this game, either for Cardiff or on the break for Huddersfield.

Lee Nicholls is taking every available second before restarting, and I don't blame him.

Lee Nicholls gets pats on the back all round as he plucks the corner out of the air.

There is a slight pause as Connor Wickham receives treatment.

Beautiful technique from Rubin Colwill, 20 yards out but great save too by Lee Nicholls.

It is remarkable how a goal can change games.

It is all Cardiff, and they have another corner.

Five minutes added on! Huddersfield fans are not happy about that!
