League One Cardiff City claimed a Premier League scalp as they beat a much-changed Burnley side 2-1 at Turf Moor to reach the fourth round of the Carabao Cup for the first time since their run to the 2012 final.
Joel Colwill and Callum Robinson struck inside a five-minute first-half spell to put the Bluebirds in command, and although Zian Flemming's curling effort early in the second half set up a nervous finish, Brian Barry-Murphy's side held firm for a deserved win.
Continuity Trumps Wholesale Change
Scott Parker switched his entire team from the weekend draw with Nottingham Forest, while Cardiff's line-up showed five changes from their first defeat of the season at home to Bradford City. The Bluebirds' greater continuity, and their promising start to the campaign, was evident as they controlled the opening exchanges, pressing Burnley effectively and keeping possession with relative ease.
