Oumar Niasse upbeat about Cardiff City’s survival chances

Oumar Niasse is positive that Cardiff City can survive the fight against Premier League relegation with just six games left before the end of the season.

After stunning West Ham United 2-0 on March 9, back-to-back defeats to Chelsea and Manchester City dealt a blow to their fight against the drop.

With just five points adrift of safety, Niasse who joined Neil Warnock's men on loan from Everton in January has called his teammates to maintain the mentality they had against Chelsea.

Victor Camarasa's opener gave the hosts a crucial lead at the Cardiff City Stadium before a number of refereeing decisions went against them as Cezar Azpilicueta and Ruben Loftus-Cheek completed a dramatic comeback win for the Stamford Bridge outfit.
