Scarlets had three players sin-binned, but held on to claim only their second league victory this season in a game in which Cardiff dominated territory and possession.<\/p>\n
Centre Eddie James crossed to give Scarlets the lead with Joe Hawkins adding the conversion.<\/p>\n
Cardiff hit back to level through a try from Mason Grady after both Josh Macleod and Davies had been shown yellow cards.<\/p>\n
Callum Sheedy nudged Cardiff ahead with a penalty just before the break, but Gareth Davies crossed twice, either side of a second try for the home side by Josh Adams.<\/p>\n
Johnny Williams became the third Scarlets player to be yellow-carded with an hour gone, but high-flying Cardiff could not find a response.<\/p>\n
“It wasn’t great for the nerves,” said Peel.<\/p>\n
“Three yellow cards put us in a difficult position, but we fought hard. <\/p>\n
“We took our opportunities when they came and I thought we fought splendidly well for each other. It was a great win.”<\/p>\n
Former Wales scrum-half Davies, 35, scored two tries at the Arms Park for a third successive season. <\/p>\n
“I can’t speak highly enough about him because he’s the ultimate professional and keeps himself in great shape,” said Peel.<\/p>\n
“He said to me before the game he fancied another double so he backed that up.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
