‘Mendez-Laing > Neymar’ – Jubilant Cardiff City fans react after Sheffield United win

It was another very strong win for Cardiff City as they beat Sheffield United 2-0 at home.

The Bluebirds have got off to an amazing start in the Championship and had never won their first three games of the season before last night.

They mainly tested Jamaal Blackman in the Blades goal from long range before Sean Morrison headed in from a corner to open the scoring just a minute before half time.

In-form winger Nathaniel Mendez-Laing then struck an absolute peach into the bottom right corner 10 minutes after the start of the second half, setting Neil Warnock’s side up for a third win of the season.

Cardiff were considered one of the dark horses of the Championship before the start of the season, and now lead the way at the top of the table.

It’s fair to say fans of the Welsh club are pretty pleased, and here’s how they reacted on twitter:

Three games, three wins, six goals scored and zilch conceded. Remove the old badge and this is a thing of beauty. #cardiffcity pic.twitter.com/3H9kGdRuiY

#CardiffCity are flying

Mendez-Laing will get a lot of praise. But in 3 league games, they're yet to concede. Morrison outstanding again
