A delighted Sabri Lamouchi heaped praise on his players and free-kick scorer Perry Ng after Cardiff City broke their 14-game winless streak at Birmingham City.
The Bluebirds were the better team over the course of the evening, but it took them until the final 10 minutes to score their two goals, courtesy of Ng and Callum Robinson.
It was Ng's strike that caught the headlines, a 20-yard stunner which left a sprawling John Ruddy helpless. The joyous celebrations in the away end after Robinson sealed it had been a long time coming too.
