Cardiff City's Rubin Colwill has been voyted as the Carabao Cup's Round Four Player of the Round for his performance against Wrexham.

Colwill's stellar midfield performance against Cardiff's Welsh rivals helped make Cardiff the only remaining EFL side in the Quarter Finals of the competition.

On winning the award, Colwill said: “It’s nice to win the award. It was good to see (brother) Joel pick up the award in the last round but it’s good to be able to get one of my own.

“That night at the Racecourse is a memory that’s going to stick with me for the rest of my life. It was a special night and a special game, one that I really enjoyed.

“The whole squad is doing so well at the minute and we’re treating every game as the most important one. The manager utilises the squad well and everyone is benefitting.

Colwill follows in his younger brother Joel's footsteps, who picked up the award in the previous round for his performance in Cardiff's win over Burnley.

Rubin himself has picked up an injury that will keep him out of the Quarter Final, but he'll be there supporting his brother and teammates as they face Premier League side Chelsea in a massive test for thre Bluebirds.

“When we all came back for pre-season everyone could see and sense that there was a new energy around the place, a new vibe with the manager and his staff coming in. I’ve been immensely proud with how everyone has stepped up to the plate and putting in really good performances. Everyone is really looking forward to the game against Chelsea. Obviously, I’m gutted not to be involved but I can’t wait to come down and see a full stadium. It's going to be a special night that all the boys are looking forward to.”
