85 mins 4-0 Cardiff
Embarrassing, it truly is. Colwill all on his own on the right, fires in a low ball to the near post, there is Ikpeazu infront of his defender to poke it in.
83 mins 3-0 Cardiff
Kent has probably done the best of the defence, comes across well there to dispossess Davies after a dangerous call over the top.
80 mins 3-0 Cardiff
Cardiff break instantly and Davies shrugs off any attempts at a tackle and fires inches wide to Benda’s lefhand post, that would have been a great goal.
77 mins 3-0 Cardiff
That could have been something for Posh there. Mumba ball over the to, headed on by JCH Poku looks to be in between the centre halves, the pass is on to Morton on his right but he takes too long and its cut out.

JCH registers another shot on Posh’s tally. The freekick is from about 25 yards out, ripples the side netting.
71 mins 3-0 Cardiff
Cardiff win the first ball from the corner and the second and Flint fires in a shot but it’s blocked by mixture of a couple of bodies.
70mins 3-0 Cardiff
Mumba gives the ball away on teh left, Drameh is off again, drives into the heart of Posh’s defence again. Cuts is back for Hugill but it’s a great block from Edwards to prevent a fourth.
69 mins 3-0 Cardiff
The possession stats will be heavily in Posh’s favour at the end of this but it is largely simple passes before being forced to turn around and go back. Then invariably a ambitious ball goes astray.
