CARDIFF were relieved to get over the line after edging past the Dragons on Boxing Day.
-
The Blue and Blacks put their defeat to the Scarlets behind them with a 22-19 win over the Men of Gwent at the Arms Park.
"After what happened last week against Scarlets, we just wanted to take the win," said coach Corniel van Zyl.
"Ultimately the fight that the boys showed to defend so many phases at the end was pleasing."
A late penalty try for the Dragons set up a dramatic finish, with Cardiff failing to make the most of a strong second-half showing and the Dragons being reduced to 14 men following Harri Keddie’s yellow card.
"I'll be honest, it was a head-scratcher that last 20 minutes," said captain Liam Belcher.
