Cardiff City 1-2 Burnley: Report, Ratings & Reaction as Clarets Steal Three Points in Wales

Burnley were able to secure their first away win of the season after defeating Cardiff City 2-1 on Sunday afternoon.

Cardiff created the best opportunities during a very quiet opening first half with the Burnley post and Joe Hart keeping the home side at bay.

The Bluebirds would live to regret those missed chances as Johann Berg Gudmunsson rose above Greg Cunningham to head beyond Neil Etheridge at his near post, putting the away side into the lead on the 50 minute mark.

That lead lasted just ten minutes before Josh Murphy stroked home a cool finish from just inside the 18 yard box to bring his side level, which was ample reward for a stellar performance from the young winger.
