Cardiff extend winning run at Zebre
By Peter Thompson
Cardiff Blues claimed a third Pro14 win in a row with a hard-fought 10-7 triumph at struggling Zebre on Sunday.
It took 28 minutes for the deadlock to be broken at Stadio Sergio Lanfranchi, in-form wing Owen Lane taking an offload from Rey Lee-Lo before racing away to go under the posts and Jarrod Evans adding the extras.
Zebre have claimed only four victories in Conference A, but they were level when Giovanbattista Venditti intercepted a loose pass to dart away for a try four minutes before half-time.
Guglielmo Palazzani converted to level the contest, but Evans was on target with a penalty just before the break to edge Cardiff back in front.
Zebre applied the pressure without reward in a scoreless second half in Parma, Cardiff clinging on to move six points behind the third-placed Cheetahs.

Dear Ben Smith you are a genius! God please become the next all blacks coach that can take on the mighty BOKS. Your rugby acumen is second to none - imagine your dads sperm bounced as unfortunately as that oval ball did….we would not be blessed with your presence. Just as the all blacks were missing a man you too are missing a chromosome for 80% of your life, so your insights are not only profound but ring true from your own experiences. Just as the TMO interfered with citing an illegal pass I am sure your local authorities interfere with your illegal passes you make on women - How dare they!!! God forbid that rugby be officiated fairly. You are the right man for the job. Next all blacks coach is here ladies and gentlemen Miss Ben Smith (He/She/They/IT)
