Gunnarsson scores winner for Cardiff

Goals from Sean Morrison and Aron Gunnarsson have ensured Cardiff City victory Leeds United in the Championship at Elland Road this afternoon.

Cardiff began the game brightly, with both Craig Noone and Joe Mason having shots blocked in the opening minutes.

Sean Morrison opened the scoring for the Bluebirds, slotting home at the back post following Peter Whittingham's corner.

Just three minutes later, Kalvin Phillips scored his first goal for Leeds on his home debut, tapping in after Charlie Taylor's cross.

Cardiff were forced into a change before half time, with Eoin Doyle replacing Conor McAleny after the striker went off injured.

Just after the hour mark, Aron Gunnarsson gave Cardiff the lead in similar fashion to their first, converting from close range after Whittingham's corner.

Leeds failed to break down the Cardiff defence for a second time, meaning the Welsh outfit grabbed all three points to move into 12th place.
