Barry-Murphy toasts Colwill after Cardiff fightback

Colwill began on the bench having struggled recently with an ankle injury.The Wales international was introduced just after the hour as Barry-Murphy made a flurry of changes in an attempt to turn the tide of the contest."He's only trained for two days really, so I probably shouldn't have put him on as early as I did," the Cardiff head coach added."But the way the game was going, I felt as if we needed a bit of something different and he can do that from deep, so we just take it day by day with him and see how he is."He's an impeccable professional, loves the game, loves the club, so he's a huge figure for us here, I can't deny that. He just needs to find some rhythm and volume in his training because he hasn't done a lot of training, so we can't rush him back because that would just put him at risk for no reason."Colwill's goal means Cardiff are off and running in the Championship with a draw which felt almost as sweet as a victory.Amid frantic celebrations after the leveller, Barry-Murphy was cautioned for leaving his technical area.When asked whether the booking was worth it in the circumstances, he said with a smile: "No, no, no. I don't want to be paying any fines. I was a bit embarrassed."
