Malky Mackay goes into the first Premier League South Wales derby on 3 November 2013 with talk about his relationship with owner Vincent Tan for company, so a defeat would hardly help. His Cardiff sit sixteenth beforehand, with no league win since late September, seven places below Michael Laudrup's Swansea.
Aron Gunnarsson joins in the 54th minute, and Cardiff go ahead in the 62nd minute when their scorer rises above Chico Flores to head in a corner. Swansea then lose Michu to injury, and Laudrup throws on Wilfried Bony, Alejandro Pozuelo and Álvaro Vázquez chasing a reply.
The Cardiff goal survives a Jonathan de Guzmán free kick and a late Pozuelo effort. A minute into stoppage time Michel Vorm flattens Campbell as he goes round him, and the Swansea man is sent off in a game refereed by Mike Dean. Laudrup has already used all three substitutes, so Ángel Rangel goes in goal for the last few moments and Cardiff hold on. Mackay takes the bragging rights for a little while.
The phrase "top bins" is all about the top corners of the goal, where the crossbar meets the posts. It describes a goal scored with precision, power, and accuracy right into the top corner - an unstoppable strike! It is synonymous with "finding the corner" or a "perfect" strike - e.g. "They've put that top bins" or "That is top bins!".
