Bluebirds boss Brian Barry-Murphy spoke to the press after his side secured a fine 1-0 win against Luton Town to maintain our unbeaten start to the campaign.
"I’m ecstatic." Brian began. "It was an end-to-end game where both teams went for it. There were slightly different styles in terms of how we played the game, but equally as effective – so for us to come out on the right side of the scoreline is really beneficial for us. It was very enjoyable.
"It’s the best win because it’s the latest one! I never look too far ahead or too far back. We were conscious of the fact that we’d been to Wimbledon, so it was a long journey for us to go back to Cardiff and the come back again. I was conscious of how big a test it was for us, so to play the game, right from the first whistle, in the manner that we did, made us very proud."
A blend of sturdy defending and attacking quality saw the Bluebirds come away from Kenilworth Road with three points, and Brian was pleased with both sides of his team's display.
He said: "We look to attack at every opportunity. I think against a team of that calibre, there’s always the element of jeopardy if you give the ball away – they can get on goal in a matter of seconds, and all of your hard work can be undone in an instant.
"So for our young players to feel that pressure, in terms of how much risk we had to take, was good for them. There were key elements of the second half that I liked, where we came under pressure and we put our bodies on the line, but still managed to play the way that we wanted to play at all times.
"Nathan [Trott] made some really good saves for us at key times, but I think all the lads deserved that. We put our bodies on the line, and to see them do that is very good for us."
The boss ended with a comment on match-winner, Chris Willock, and looked ahead to Tuesday's CCS clash in Round Two of the Carabao Cup.
"I think it was a big day for Chris. He had an excellent pre-season, and then he’s had a couple of niggles, so he fell a little bit behind. We pushed him very hard this week, and he has that quality to show. I think he really helped us in the moments where we came under pressure, because of his ability to take the ball and dribble it past opponents."
He concluded, "Tuesday is a very important game for us. We treated the last round of the Carabao Cup in the exact same manner as a league game, and we'll take on a Cheltenham team who will give us a stern test. We want to win the game, and give ourselves a chance to progress to the next round."
