Ninian Park, Cardiff
Ninian Park, Cardiff
Cardiff City beat Leeds United 2–1 in their third-round 2001–02 FA Cup football
match at Ninian Park (pictured) in Cardiff on 6 January 2002. Premier League Leeds
United were favourites as Cardiff City were tenth in the Second Division, two tiers
below. As a Premier League team, Leeds entered the FA Cup in this round, while
Cardiff had had to win two earlier matches. The gate was more than 22,000, a record
at Ninian Park that season. Andy D'Urso was the referee. Leeds scored in the 12th
minute via a goal from Mark Viduka. Cardiff equalised soon after with Graham
Kavanagh scoring from a free-kick. Shortly before half-time, Leeds midfielder Alan
Smith was sent off after clashing with Cardiff's Andy Legg, so Leeds had to play
defensively in the second half. With three minutes remaining, Scott Young volleyed
in the winning goal. Cardiff fans invaded the pitch and clashes between the two
sets of supporters led to police intervention. Cardiff were eventually fined
£20,000 for the pitch invasion. (Full article...)
