  1. GREAT SAVE!published at 90 mins

    Cardiff 1-2 Huddersfield

    Unbelievable save from the returning Lee Nicholls, that could be the biggest save of Huddersfield's season.

    Rubin Colwill lines up an effort from range which looks destined to go in the top corner, but Nicholls gets across brilliant to tip it behind.

    The resulting corner comes to nothing.

    Cardiff 1-2 Huddersfield

    Jaden Philogene - as he has for a lot of the season - looks the most likely to break Huddersfield hearts.

    The visitors are sitting deeper and deeper, and looking to counter through Joseph Hungbo.

    We've seen Jaden Philogene do that so many times, he's so comfortable running down the right or cutting in onto his left but he was stretching and couldn't get the accuracy.

    Cardiff 1-2 Huddersfield

    Jaden Philogene drags a shot wide of the near post as Cardiff go in search of an equaliser.

    It would be incredibly harsh on Huddersfield.

    This last few minutes will feel like an eternity for the travelling Terriers.

    Huddersfield looked in search of a third goal before that Isaak Davies strike.

    They look far more inclined to slow the clock down now.

    Isaak Davies did so well, he kept moving. Predicted something would happen. You could question the goalkeeper there too.

    It has got significantly less jubilant in the away section of the crowd since that goal as the nerves kick in.

    Cardiff fans are in voice for the first time in over half an hour.

    GOAL - Cardiff 1-2 Huddersfieldpublished at 83 mins

    Isaak Davies

    Talk about against the run of play!

    Cardiff are back in it, and it is the substitute Issak Davies with the goal.

    The Bluebirds win a corner and go short to Jaden Philogene, who drives a low cross through the box and Davies adds a love back-heeled finish.

    Game back on.

    In the last ten minutes Huddersfield have looked like one of the top teams in the Championship.

    Josh Koroma is off for the visitors, in his place comes David Kasumu.

    Huddersfield almost have a third, but Tom Lees cannot direct his close-range header on target from the corner.

    The Cardiff fans in front of us are heading home they've seen enough, perhaps they want to get home before it starts raining again.

    Jac Alnwick does really well to tip Jordan Rhodes' cross over the bar behind for a corner.

    Huddersfield players were queuing up at the back post.

    After the second goal I thought all the play would be in Huddersfield's defensive half, not in their attacking half!

    In case you need reminding, one point from Huddersfield's remaining two games will secure their place in the Championship next season.

    Even Neil Warnock is cracking a smile now.

    People are just fed up with this whole situation to be honest. How do you endure this if you are a Cardiff fan?

    It's carnage! Fair play to Huddersfield who are now looking for a third and it's looking highly likely that they will get it.

    This is as dominant a 10 minutes as you will see in football.

    Mark McGuinness is twice forced to block a Huddersfield shot from within his own box.

    Cardiff eventually turn the ball behind for a corner and the home crowd have seen enough, the boos have started.

    That was a great passage of play. I thought Huddersfield might have shut up shop but they have played better football since they scored.

  20. HITS THE WOODWORK - TWICE!published at 77 mins

    Cardiff 0-2 Huddersfield

    That was almost that.

    Sheyi Ojo and Andy Rinomhota lose possession once again, and Josh Koroma is so unlucky to see a brilliant effort crash off the near post.

    Even more unfortunate for Huddersfield is Jaheim Headley, who tries to divert the rebound on target but cannot keep it down as it bounces off the crossbar.

    It already feels like a long way back for Cardiff but that would have been curtains.
