Cardiff City
AFC Wimbledon
Cardiff City delivered a commanding performance to dismantle AFC Wimbledon 4-1 at home, with the match effectively decided in a devastating 11-minute second-half spell. After Joel Colwill's opener was cancelled out by substitute Mathew Stevens just before the break, Cardiff showed their Championship pedigree with quickfire goals from Perry Ng and Ollie Tanner putting the game beyond reach. The Bluebirds' superior fitness and squad depth told as they made multiple tactical substitutions, with Omari Kellyman adding gloss to the scoreline late on. This emphatic victory extends Cardiff's strong home form and demonstrates the gulf in class between the Championship dropouts and League One opposition.
