Top of the table becomes so much tighter
Just six points separates the top half of the table. Cardiff's win sees them move to within three points of leaders Southampton who they beat last night. With Middlesbrough drawing 0 - 0 at home to Leicester they missed the chance to capitalise on Southampton's defeat.
