Bluebirds victorious after Battle of Selhurst

Last updated : 12 April 2009 By Michael Morris
Never has a victory felt so sweet after Claude Davis' attempt to decapitate Roger Johnson. The City defender spend the night in hospital, spitting blood after a cynical forearm smash from the Palace player.

Dave Jones was so insensed he was ordered to the stands at half time and we learn today that Cardiff have referred the incident to the F.A.

The challenge on Chopra has left him a doubt for tomorrow's game against Burnley.

Ross McCormack scored a first half penalty and then rounded off the result with a cracking 2nd goal in injury time. The Scot was put in by Paul Parry and his clever movement saw him beat the defender before firing past the keeper.

The severity of Davis' challenge can be seen here

Cardiff have virtually secured a play off place and now can target an automatic promotion place if they can beat Burnley tomorrow.
