The Bluebirds who came from behind to be winning at one point squandered their chances of moving dramatically up the table. But Konstantopoulos who was making his Cardiff debut allowed the ball to trickle over the line from a corner-kick in the closing stages of the game.

Meanwhile Coventry stunned Birmingham at the Ricoh whilst Derby collected the bragging rights over Nottingham Forest. Below are the results from over the weekend:
