Cardiff City boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer felt he couldn't risk Craig Bellamy for victory over Fulham.
Solskjaer explained why he missed out against Fulham.
"He has been ill all week so he hadn't trained," he said. "But the character of the lad; he came in on Friday and did something on the bike and felt maybe he could do 10 minutes for us with his energy, enthusiasm, drive and experience.
"We needed energy in the last 10 minutes and I was going to send him on."
