Cardiff boss Warnock: Manga tackle earned Crystal Palace point

Cardiff City boss Neil Warnock hailed a Bruno Ecuele Manga tackle during their 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace.

Warnock described the challenge as a "miracle" after it denied Wilfried Zaha a near-certain goal and earned Cardiff a 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace.

After watching Palace not score from 31 shots on goal, the 70-year-old Cardiff manager said: "I don't know how Bruno got to that. A miracle, that.

"Somebody above us; a magnificent tackle.

"He couldn't catch him given (he had given Zaha) a five-yard start."
