Ole Gunnar Solskjaer praises "fantastic" David Marshall

Cardiff City manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer admits that David Marshall saved his team in the draw with Aston Villa.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has praised Cardiff City goalkeeper David Marshall following the goalless draw with Aston Villa on Tuesday night.

Marshall ensured that Cardiff earned a point from the game by denying Andreas Weimann, who looked set to hand Villa a lead from close range in stoppage time.

"I thought it was a goal but, then again, you've got David Marshall there so you almost expect him to save it," Solskjaer told BT Sport.

"He's been fantastic this season and again he saved us.

"He saved us again but you can talk about Steven Caulker and Ben Turner. They've done a fantastic job, as good a performance as you can ask for."

Cardiff remain in the relegation zone following the draw, two points from safety.
