CRICHTON: Appeared to be fouled for the goal but otherwise had little to do apart from one superb first half save...6

COX: Credited with the Cardiff goal but otherwise impressive as the Clarets snuffed out the threat of Nogan and Co...7

DAVIS: Bagged the all-important opening goal to cap a commanding display at the heart of the Burnley defence...8

THOMAS: Strong and physical as ever, he was a tower of strength alongside Davis and Cox...7

LITTLE: Produced a couple of teasing centres before the red mist descended...6

MULLIN: Had little time to make an impact before limping out of the action with an injury...6

COOK: Served up a delicious centre for Davis's opener and was generally at the hub of most of Burnley's best work...7

JOHNROSE: Another hard-working display from the midfield dynamo...7

PAYTON: Always looked the Clarets main threat going forward and scored the decisive second with a cool finish...8

BRANCH: Awesome in the air at times and generally linked up well with Payton...7

SMITH: Served up a couple of inviting centres but struggled to get into the game down the left...6

SUBS:

MELLON: Didn't really have a major impact after being thrust into the action early on following Mullin's injury...6

LEE: Worked tirelessly but still looks short of match fitness.
