Before Saturday's meeting between Cardiff and Arsenal few expected the 'Bluebirds' to do anything of note in the clash. Imagine their surprise when the minnows twice came from behind to peg back their more illustrious opponents.

Surprisingly, the game was an entertaining encounter. The 'Gunners' took the lead through a Shkodran Mustafi header, before Victor Camarasa broke Cardiff's seasonal duck to level.

A wonderful Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang strike put Arsenal back in front, but with just 20 minutes to play the hosts pegged them back again.

It was a simple goal from Cardiff as Joe Ralls floated in a free-kick from deep, with Sean Morrison rising highest to nod the ball into the mixer at the far post.

That header dropper perfectly for Ward to glance home from around the penalty spot, via a kiss off the far post.

The Cardiff City Stadium exploded into life as they drew level for the second time as they searched for only their second point of the season so far.
