FA Cup Third Round Replay Time!
Rodrigo and Sonny Perkins spared Jesse Marsch's blushes and got my beloved Leeds United out of jail two weeks back when we visited Cardiff in the FA Cup 3rd Round. Today, it's time to get the job done as we host the Bluebirds in the replay at the sacred Elland Road ground. I'd like to see the return of some injured warriors (e.g., Patrick Bamford, Luis Sinesterra) and a comprehensive, say, 3 or 4-0, win over the Championship strugglers. Come on, you Whites! #MOT!

I'm just settling in to watch in time to see Willy Gnonto volley home brilliantly!
Pick that out!
1-0!
We're all over the Bluebirds so far. Rodrigo has already had a load of chances.
Oh - Gnonto should have had his second there. Great ball in from Greenwood and Willy was only six yards out but his finish bobbled over the bar this time.
I'm still nervous every time that Cardiff go forward given the porous nature of our defense. We really could have used that second goal.
Oh - Gnonto in again and worked the keeper. Great strike!
YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
Rodrigo doubles our advantage with a cool finish after a lovely defense-splitting pass from Jack Harrison.
2-0!
Make that 3-0! Gnonto with his brace. This is the sort of morale-building performance we needed!
Half-time: 3-0. We dodged a bullet with a goal ruled offside just before the break. But we've deserved this lead with some sparkling attacking play.
We're off in the second half and Marc Roca should have notched a fourth.
Aaronson and Lord Bamford on for Adams and Rodrigo.
New boy Max Wober is struggling now and will need to come off.
Luke Ayling set to replace Wober now.
Oh - Lord Bamford in there but his sharp shot is turned aside.
Lovely finish from Lord Bamford - 4-0!
And another clinical finish from Pat for 5-0 - boy, he really needed those goals. He's on three in the last two now.
Well, those two late goals for Cardiff somewhat blotted the copy book but it was still a stonking win for us. 5-2 in the end with two goals late on from Patrick Bamford after coming on in the second half.
