Cardiff corner after strong work by Tommy Smith.
FIVE minutes of added time here - seems like a liberal amount...

Cardiff break - Noone is on his own though... and he's run off the ball.
Ben Arfa drives it in! - but it's high and wide.
Santon attacks the area - crosses - cleared by the Cardiff defence, and Anita is fouled. Free kick to Newcastle, 10 yards outside the Cardiff box.
