Bellamy makes instant impact for Bluebirds
Craig Bellamy announced his arrival at Cardiff in style with a goal and two assists as they cruised to a 4-0 victory over Doncaster at the Cardiff City Stadium.
The on-loan Manchester City man never looked like disappointing a capacity crowd and almost enjoyed a dream start but his close-range shot was saved by Neil Sullivan.
However, it did not take long for Bellamy to make a telling contribution and he played in Jay Bothroyd who opened the scoring after 36 minutes.
Cardiff doubled their lead in the 62nd minute when Chris Burke, who had earlier came on for Michael Chopra, crossed from the right for Bothroyd to head in his second of the game.
Bellamy was getting all over the pitch and six minutes later he found himself in the left-back area and launched a fine ball to set Burke free and he made it 3-0 with aplomb.
It was almost inevitable that Bellamy would get a debut goal and so it proved when Bothroyd was upended, allowing the 31-year-old Wales striker to flash home a superb free-kick from 35 yards.
