Half-Time Report: Cardiff City on top but can't break down Millwall

Millwall are level at Cardiff City at half time of their Championship clash.

Millwall almost fell behind immediately as Joe Mason headed Scott Malone's cross just wide from inside the penalty area.

The Lions struggled in the early stages, and didn't create a chance until Nicky Bailey flashed an effort marginally over the bar from 25 yards.

Cardiff remained in charge of the half, and continued to create chances as Sean Morrison headed a corner over the bar and Dan Harding almost scored an own goal.

Harding then had a shot at the right end, but his stinging volley was blocked before Peter Whittingham forced David Forde to beat away his long-range attempt.

Joe Ralls almost broke the deadlock minutes before half time as his whipped cross cannoned off the crossbar before it flew to safety, allowing Millwall to survive.
