Erol Bulut was left "angry" with Cardiff City's performance after their 3-2 home defeat by Norwich City.

Cardiff were on course for victory after goals from Josh Bowler and Callum Robinson put them 2-1 up at half-time.

But two late goals saw Norwich claim a first win in seven league games to leave Bluebirds boss Bulut criticising his team's concentration levels.

"You can lose a game, but not how we lost it in the last 25 minutes," he said.

"This makes me angry. Maybe it's [because of] the international break, I don't know.

"You have a few days free, so maybe we are 2-1 in front so [players think] the game is already finished and you are more relaxed.

"I am thinking [it was] like this. Maybe the players are different.

"Some players were not concentrated enough. We were planning to take the three points today, but now we have zero."

Bulut was also critical of the match officials in the Norwich game, arguing his side should have had a first-half penalty when Bowler went down under Przemyslaw Placheta's challenge.

The Bluebirds boss, meanwhile, is hopeful Perry Ng's problem is not serious after the defender missed out against Norwich because of a knee injury.

"He got injured yesterday (Friday) in training," said Bulut, whose side return to action at Preston in a fortnight's time.

"I think it's not serious. He had a kick on his knee. His ligament. The medical department said he would not be available."
