Championship roundup: Cardiff make it easy for Swansea, Watford near play-offs

• Cardiff’s Callum Robinson’s red card helps Swansea in 2-0 win
• Watford three points from a play-off place after 4-0 Luton rout

Russell Martin felt that the Cardiff forward Callum Robinson was guilty of making an “easy mistake” for the seventh-minute red card that allowed Swansea to continue their dominance of the South Wales derby.

Ollie Cooper and Michael Obafemi were on target as Swansea ran out comfortable 2-0 winners to secure a sixth win in eight derby meetings. Cardiff have won just once in that time and their fate on Sunday was sealed when Robinson reacted to Ben Cabango’s early nudge by throwing the ball in to the face of the Wales defender.
