HŠK Zrinjski Mostar v Aston Villa Post Match Thread

[Brazilian Villain]

Scissor lifts were more interesting.

Just google scissoring in Mostar.

Just wait till you google 'Scissor sisters Dublin'.

Young keeper will learn a lot from it, thought he should have saved the equaliser.

How?!

By being better than Martinez and Yashin combined. Or having Inspector Gadget arms.

I was thinking the stretchy rubbery fella out of the fantastic 4

[Legion]

Dr. Octopus might have got to it.

[VillaTim]

It was nice that O'Reilly got a run. Not many make their villa debut at a leisure centre  in Bosnia.

[Clampy]

Inspector Gadget would have saved it easily.

[Lastfootstamper]

Martinez might have got to it. Might. And if he had, we'd all be saying that's why he's the best 'keeper in the world. It was a goal unsavable by almost the entirety of eternal sentient existence in this solar system or any other.

Done one of those scissor kicks

[astonvilla82]

Overall disappointing but can understand why,no point running around and getting knackered unless it's really called for considering we got Brentford Sunday

The lads are currently over the English Channel, should be arriving in BHX at 12.35am.

If they get their skates on they'll catch last orders at Snobs

Some important players got rested. Others got vital minutes in their legs. Two youngsters got their debuts. Zaniola got a goal. We got the draw we needed to win the group. Objective achieved.

[Matt C]

Bit of an odd game but we’ve done what we needed to do. Aside from a short spell away to AZ we’ve not got out of second gear in any of these group games and still progressed as group winners. Be interesting to see where the competition features in our priorities when it resumes in March.

And not many Bosnians have graced the stage at Aston Villa Leisure Centre.

Not a great game as they sat deep in numbers but we got what we needed out of it to progress, so onwards & upwards...

[ROBBO]

The deflection did the goalkeeper, seems to happen more these days.
