Here's how the players rated during Cardiff's 2-1 extra-time win over Preston North End in the FA Cup third round clash at Cardiff City Stadium
Dillon Phillips 6
Didn't have a massive amount to do for much of the afternoon, but did OK when called upon. Distribution was a little rusty at times, but did well to spare Morrison's blushes after a wayward backpass in the first half.
Sean Morrison (c) 7
A hairy moment in the first half aside, a reasonably solid performance. A real aerial presence that will may well see him considered for league contention again.
Curtis Nelson 6
Put his foot in well defensively, and even contributed in the final third at times. Perhaps lucky not to give a penalty away late on, though.
Ciaron Brown 4
Just looked awkward throughout, although he did put in a couple of decent crosses. A brainless tackle to give away the penalty. Subbed.
Joel Bagan 5
Cannot fault the effort, but just looked a little awkward at times out wide. Some decent crosses and some nice link-up play aside, felt a little too predictable.
Perry Ng 5
Got stuck in nicely, but perhaps gave the ball away a little too often. Grew into the contest well enough, but end product proved elusive.
Marlon Pack 6
Nothing to take too much issue with. Added some steel to Cardiff's efforts in the middle, but otherwise a pretty quiet showing. Subbed.
Will Vaulks 6
Worked socks off in the middle of the park, but final ball and set-piece delivery was frustratingly poor.
Rubin Colwill 7
Looked a little shaky in possession at first, but gradually saw his influence grow as the game wore on with some nice touches. Subbed.
James Collins 5
Threw himself about and held up the ball reasonably well, but seldom looked a genuine goal threat. A missed opportunity following his heroics at the Hawthorns.
Isaak Davies 7
Initially looked well off the pace, and spurned a glorious opportunity shortly before opening the scoring. But deserves credit for what was a fine goal. Made some decent runs after the break too. Subbed at full-time.
Subs:
Mark Harris (on for Brown 69) - Denied by a fine save in extra-time. Made some superb runs and took his goal brilliantly. Changed the game 8 STAR MAN
Ryan Wintle (on for Colwill 75) - Showed some promising touches and played some decent passes in the middle 7
Kieran Evans (on for Davies 90) - Fairly decent showing. Was involved in build-up to winner. A pretty accomplished cameo 7
Tom Sang (on for Pack 100) - Earned an assist for the winner. Really good cameo on his first senior outing since October... 7
