Cardiff City were in Championship action on Wednesday night, travelling up to Pride Park to take on Derby County.

The Bluebirds fell behind to a Martyn Waghorn opener, but snatched a point in the second half as Kieffer Moore equalised.

Moore’s goal was rather impressive, as winger Sheyi Ojo shrugged off a challenge and drove towards the box, before picking his pass.

Ojo threaded a ball through the Derby defence for Moore to run onto and finish, giving Cardiff a share of the spoils.

This continued Ojo’s fine form, as he has now registered two goals and one assist in his last four games for Cardiff.

The 23-year-old is currently on loan from Liverpool, where he is unlikely to have a long-term future given that they have now loaned him out for the sixth time.

Ojo appears to be in his best form for a while now, and the Liverpool-owned ace is now being praised on Twitter by Cardiff supporters.

Fans called Ojo ‘quality’ and ‘excellent’, with many feeling he was the best player on the pitch last night – and that should be positive news for Liverpool, even if just drums up more interest in him.
