Alex Robertson said it was a proud moment to captain Cardiff City for the first time in their 2-2 draw with Middlesbrough. The 23-year-old wore the armband in the absence of Calum Chambers, Rubin Colwill and Perry Ng at the Riverside Stadium. "It's a proud moment, I think that's my first professional game as a captain," he told BBC Radio Wales. "It's a really proud moment for me. The boys really helped me. "I've got good leaders behind me in Osh (Gabriel Osho) and Krystian [Bielik] which made it pretty easy. "The main thing was that we got a result." The Bluebirds made a dream start against Kim Hellberg's side as goals from Jack Moylan and Ollie Tanner put them 2-0 up in the first half. But Boro responded with quickfire efforts from Tommy Conway and Will Lankshear in the second half to earn a point against Brian Barry-Murphy's side - who had Osho sent off late on. "Obviously it was very good to go 2-0 up in the first half, but second half it was disappointing to concede the two goals," Robertson said. "I think the boys showed great fight to protect our goal and try and get a result out of the game, and that's what we've done. I'm proud of the boys for that."
