Alex Smithies 7
Did well in the swirling wind. Had to have his wits about him to tip a cross over the bar in the first half and made a couple of decent saves after the break.
Perry Ng 7
A really assured performance again from the defender. Gives Cardiff more options on the ball and works well with Drameh on that far side.
Aden Flint 6
Defensively pretty sound, although struggled in the air with the wind a little. Distribution was a bit hit and miss too.
Mark McGuinness 6
Missed his header before Ekpiteta headed home. Bit of a rocky start for the young defender but grew into the game in the second half.
Cody Drameh 8
Another stellar display from the Leeds United loanee. Looked the most likely to create for most of the afternoon and was terrific in defence, too.
Ryan Wintle 7
Swept things up well at the base and kept things ticking over. Cut a frustrated figure at the lack of options ahead at times but some really neat and tidy play.
Will Vaulks 6
A little clumsy in the challenge sometimes but put himself about when he needed to. Booked for a cynical challenge on Bowler late on.
Tommy Doyle 7
Did most things very well, only got sloppy when he tried to force the issue, which is no bad thing when there is a lack of creativity. Better later on.
Joel Bagan 7
Cannot stop him scoring at the minute! Was uncharacteristically sloppy at the start but excellent after the break. Should have had two but snatched at a half-volleyed chance.
Isaak Davies 8 (star man)
His work rate is so impressive. Pressed and defended brilliantly from the front and was a menace when the game opened up. Fantastic performance.
Jordan Hugill 7
Did a lot of the ugly stuff well. Won lots of duels and held the ball up well. A really solid shift again from the striker.
Subs
Uche Ikpeazu (on for Hugill 72) 7 - Made a big difference when he came on. Won so many fouls and duels, a positive cameo.
Mark Harris (on for Davies 79) 6 - Another decent outing for the striker but no clear-cut chances fell his way.
