Steve Morison admitted he was left speechless and "emotionally drained" after his side bounced back from last week's hammering by Swansea City to beat Reading 2-1.
Morison had described the week leading up to the Royals game as "horrible" due to the nature of the South Wales derby defeat last weekend. But he knew his team had to produce a far better performance to get back on track after what has been a largely positive period since the January transfer window ended.
It looked like Cardiff were going to be on the receiving end of back-to-back losses, though, when Reading took the lead early on and dominated the first half. But goals from Alfie Doughty and Will Vaulks, who has had to be patient and bide his time recently, ensured Cardiff earned another victory to take their recent record to only one defeat in the last six games.
