Cardiff misses its chance to clear the danger zone
Cardiff City missed its chance to move clear of the relegation zone after suffering a 3-1 defeat to Blackburn Rovers, which ended a three-match losing streak on the road in the EFL Championship.
Andreas Wiemann scored early on in both halves, tapping in both from close range to give Blackburn the advantage.
David Turnbull gave Cardiff hope, turning in the rebound of his own saved penalty late in the game, but Lewis Baker's even later effort wrapped up the result in the 86th minute, moving John Eustace’s side up to ninth.
