Championship wrap: Cardiff closes in on Wolves
Neil Warnock enjoyed a happy birthday as his Cardiff City side beat Norwich City 3-1 in the Championship.
Cardiff City moved within a point of Championship leader Wolverhampton Wanderers and put promotion rival Sheffield United under pressure by coming from behind to beat Norwich City 3-1.
On manager Neil Warnock's 69th birthday, Cardiff recovered after falling behind to Marco Stiepermann's long-range 43rd-minute opener to put six points between itself and Warnock's former club, which faces Millwall on Sunday (AEDT), in third.
Joe Ralls levelled from the penalty spot after Ivo Pinto had been penalised for a shove in the box, with Junior Hoilett hitting home from a narrow angle to complete the turnaround.
Ralls saw a second spot-kick saved 12 minutes from time, but two minutes later Omar Bogle made the game safe from close range. Wolves will attempt to re-establish a four-point gap when they visit Birmingham City on Tuesday (AEDT).
Meanwhile, Aston Villa missed the chance to leapfrog Sheffield United into third as it was held to a 1-1 draw by Leeds United.
Pontus Jansson headed Leeds in front after 19 minutes, but substitutes Jack Grealish and Henri Lansbury combined to earn a share of the spoils for Villa, the latter scoring his first goal for the club from outside of the box.
