Cardiff City earned their first win of pre-season by edging out top-tier Israeli outfit Ironi Kiryat Shmona in the Netherlands this evening.
Russell Slade's side took the lead in the 18th minute when defender Bruno Ecuele Manga found the net.
The Bluebirds saw out the result in the second half, adding a second shortly before full time through Anthony Pilkington.
Cardiff's second friendly in the Netherlands takes place on Friday when they face Sparta Rotterdam.
