I think sadly many officials still referee "the name" e.g. did Pereria even get a yellow?

I've probably seen all of our games at OT since Gabby's winner a decade ago and many before that. It's so refreshing to see a Villa side step out at this intimidating ground in front of a 73,000 crowd and play without fear - and, equally pleasingly, continue to press after falling behind. We're getting there.
