Cardiff City fight back to beat Yeovil Town

Cardiff fight back to beat Yeovil

Cardiff City came back from a goal down to register a comfortable 4-1 victory over League One side in a pre-season friendly at Huish Park this afternoon.

The Bluebirds conceded in the first half after a deep cross was scuffed in at the back post by Jay Leitch-Smith to give the hosts a 1-0 lead.

It wasn't until the second half that Cardiff got their first goal after Nicky Maynard was pulled back inside the Yeovil box to be rewarded with a penalty, which Adam Le Fondre converted clinically.

Cardiff started to pressurise the opponent with another goal shortly afterwards from Matthew Connolly, who controlled superbly and finished on the turn to make it 2-1.

A brace late on by Kenwyne Jones wrapped up the comprehensive victory.
