"We tried to create and score, but we couldn’t quite do it and now we go into Oxford on Monday taking moments of confidence from this game today to try and get the points."

Omer Riza spoke exclusively to cardiffcityfc.co.uk from the Bluebirds’ Sheffield base ahead of this evening’s Good Friday clash with Sheffield United.

“We know the position we’re in and we’re focused on what we need to do to try to get out of that position."

"We tried to go for it as much as we could, but we didn’t create enough clear-cut moments."

“Us as players, we know how important these last few games are because of the impact it can have. I know the impact it can have on every fan, player, staff member and the city as a whole."

"Everyone wants to play their part for this Club and that togetherness is great to see."

"With the substitutes that came on and made an impact, and the players that finished the game, we have to take that point and it’s an important one."

"There were a couple of little half-chances, and in general I thought we dealt with some of their directness at time. We'll take a point."

“Obviously there’s a little bit of edge to it, but that has to be a good thing. The players, the staff and the Club have to take that and use it as energy for the next games."

"It’s about what we do and if we do what we do right, then we can give anyone a game and take three points off anyone.”

"Even though there’s a lot of young players here, a few of us have experience of being in these situations. I feel we all want to help this club."

"We can’t find excuses, we’ve got to find solutions."

"It’ll be a tough game but it’s one we’re looking forward to, where we’ll impose our own gameplan."

"Blackburn was a good result, it keeps us where we are and we’ve already said we had nine finals, that's one down and we’ve got eight to go."

"If you go with quality and you go with that fighting mentality, as we just did, fighting for each other today, coming to a tough place, you can do it together.

"We have eight finals left this season."

“We’re all working towards the same goal, that’s me, my staff, the players, that’s the whole Club."

"We’re putting a lot of energy into the games, we’re getting ourselves in good positions at times, but the same mistakes keep happening over and over."

"For 95 minutes of the game we were focussed but switched off for that one moment and got punished for it."

“With games coming thick and fast, we have to be physically and mentally ready to go and pick up points.”
