00:00Well, it's been a busy and eventful week for Cardiff City, whose influence had been felt both at home and away.
00:08The news came first from Sheffield Wednesday, where Cardiff's loanee Ethan Horvath was sent off late in the L's two-on-defeat to Charlton Athletic.
00:18The US goalkeeper's red card left Wednesday without a senior option for their midweek clash against Middlesbrough,
00:24prompting the EFL to grant permission for an emergency loan under Regulation 58.
00:30Horvath's suspension is another reminder of Cardiff's reach across the EFL this season,
00:35but back in South Wales, the focus remains on progress under Brian Barry Murphy.
00:40The Bluebirds continue to impress in League One, climbing the table with a mix of youth and attacking flair.
00:48Central to this has been young forward Amari Kellyman, who scored his first goal for the club
00:53in the 2-1 win over Reading.
00:56The 19-year-old on loan from Chelsea described the strike as a milestone
01:00after a challenging year that included a serious hamstring injury.
01:04I'm delighted, Kellyman said.
01:06Last year was tough, but moving here has helped me rebuild my confidence.
01:12Every game I play gives me more belief in my body and my ability to push on.
01:16The manager's style suits me.
01:19We like to dominate possession and I can feel I express myself and create chances.
01:26His first league goal marked a step in his development, adding much-needed spark to Cardiff's forward line.
01:32Meanwhile, academy graduate Joel Colwell was named Carabao Cup's Player of the Round,
01:38after starring in Cardiff's 2-1 win over Premier League side Burnley.
01:42Colwell opened the scoring at Turf Moor and helped the team control the game,
01:47highlighting the strength of Barry Murphy's youth integration.
01:52With optimism growing around the squad and key young players stepping up,
01:57Cardiff City look ready to continue their rise.
02:00The next test comes in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup,
02:03where they will face an all-Welsh clash against Wrexham,
02:07offering another chance to showcase the club's progress and ambition throughout the season.
