Russell Slade pleased with Cardiff City resolve in Championship win over Brentford

Cardiff City manager Russell Slade says that he is pleased with the way that his team held onto victory in their Championship match against Brentford.

Cardiff City manager Russell Slade was pleased with the resolve that his team showed during their 2-1 Championship victory over Brentford this afternoon.

Brentford dominated proceedings at Griffin Park, but second-half goals from Federico Macheda and Alex Revell gave Cardiff the three points.

Former Bee Kadeem Harris and Macheda were dismissed in the closing stages, but Cardiff held on for victory.

"It was an interesting game. I didn't think it would explode into life like it did in the second half," Slade told TeamTalk.com.

"Brentford were better in the first half and deserved their lead but the important thing is that we stayed in the game, got the next goal and then an excellent finish from Revell got us in driving seat."

The win took Slade's team up to 14th in the Championship table.
