He didnt make that touch on purpose cos we are only playing for the draw. Ha.

When teams play for the draw, you create less chances.

Jordan Cousins creates a chance for Rangers early in the second half. He exchanges passes with Nedum Onuoha on the right and sends the ball into the box, but Yeni Ngbakoto is unable to get a decisive touch.

QPR have come out and seized the initiative. Jordan Cousins picks up the ball and tries to play in to the onrushing Yeni Ngbakoto but he can't get a crucial final touch towards goal.

Dangerous for Cardiff early in this second half.

CardiffCity haven't failed to score in their first 3 games of a season since 1989. They've got 45 minutes to keep that run going...

49 mins: Good start to the second half from QPR who show a nice tempo that allows Cousins to flash the ball across the six-yard box but Ngbakoto can't flick it in. [0-0]

What he's saying is when we try for the draw, we end up losing more. We should try to win, more likely to draw than lose then.

We are trying to win the game, just 1 or 2-0 not 6-5. Much more likely to nick away games by keeping in tight than going all out an likely getting tubbed. Home games for all out attack.

Do you think Cardiff are playing for the draw mate? They are at home and aint had a shot yet,

[Fraggy]

2nd half under way no changes at HT for either team.

[MYU]

Disagree. Keep it tight and try and nick a 1-0.

Win your home games and draw your aways and u win the league.

Agree with you there.

Would like to see us taking more of a chance going forward 2nd half. We need to start winning our away games. Playing safe for a draw will only see us lose more than we win imo

Agree with you there.

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink will be absolutely delighted with this first half. They've been very organised. If they can get their forward players a little further forward in the second half, the game can open up a bit more.
