Leeds United 5-2 Cardiff City: Managerless Bluebirds battered in embarrassing FA Cup defeat

walesonline.co.uk

Managerless Cardiff City put in a shambolic and embarrassing performance befitting a club in such a sorry state as they were hammered 5-2 by Leeds United and dumped out of the FA Cup for good measure.

A double from Wilfried Gnonto in the first half and two more from Patrick Bamford in the second, as well as a well-taken Rodrigo strike, saw Dean Whitehead's first game as interim boss end in utter disaster.

Credit to the 700 or so fans for travelling all this way, in midweek, to witness this horror show. They were at least treated to two late Callum Robinson consolations, but that will do nothing to paper over the gaping cracks.

Never has a performance summed up a club's situation than this one from Cardiff City. Disjointed, disorganised, a complete lack of leadership and a totally devoid of ideas.
