Villa really dug deep for this. Fantastic stuff from the 10 men at the end. Rashford injured, Tielemans injured, Ramsey suspended. Just hope the other sides are also suffering.

That clearance from Cash at the end - superb.

Emi made a brilliant save, cash got himself infront of the forward and put him off. He didn’t clear it.
It was still massively impressive though

I feel like I'm going mad now. I'm sure Cash cleared it?

Was it given a GK or a corner?

Sky report says this 'only for Martinez to parry the first shot, with Cash then denying Daniel Jebbison with a clearance off the line.'

[Brazilian Villain]

Massive, massive win given the circumstances.

[steamer]

That's a total team performance.

Backs to the wall stuff at times and a great win despite one of the most abysmal refereeing performances  all season.

And his  reward, - Stuart Twatwell is in charge of the Cup Final next week.

Be afraid, very afraid.

No skin of my chin. Reds all round for me if he wants as I think they will apply to their last games.

Dream scenario?

Spuds play their kids next Friday and we stuff them.

Spuds then tonk Scum on Wednesday, several on both sides injured

Yanited so demoralised, we run up a cricket score at Mould Trafford last match of the season.

good for me

Our defensive shape was exceptional. Struggle with the ball especially in the second half but got over the line. Unless Mings was injured, that was a stupid decision to bring on Torres. He was at fault for both their chances and was a liability in the circumstances. Ramsey put us under pressure big time. On we go!

Martinez 8 - back to his best really. So commanding in the box and sharp off his line.
Cash 9 - delighted for him, defensively rock solid and saved us at end
Konsa 8 - I've been very critical but thought that was maybe his best performance of the season
Mings 7 - distribution not Mings friend but made no sense to hook him. Pocketed Evanilson
Digne 7 - created that chance for Kamara, got rolled by Semenyo for that shot past the post but another solid display
Kamara 7 - much better today. Sharp to support Cash and got on a lot of ball
Onana 7 - very good first half when we were dominant, faded a bit in second half
Rogers 6 - worked hard anyway and a great assist, got very tired
Ramsey 4 - decent first half but was fading in second before letting us down. Touch has to be improved
Asensio 5 - unlucky with his shot in a decent first half but not doing anywhere near enough currently to be starting games
Watkins 7 - worked like a trooper and a brilliant goal

Torres was awful, McGinn struggled to get into it a bit.

Emery 7 - will be delighted with the response since the Palace debacle and two clean sheets despite multiple changes. Decision to bring Torres on for Mings was reckless and nearly cost us.

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

Big shout out for Matty Cash.
He won the ball back which set up the goal, and made a great clearance at the end.
MOTM, without those two big moments our CL challenge would be over tonight.

Was it given a GK or a corner?

Sky report says this 'only for Martinez to parry the first shot, with Cash then denying Daniel Jebbison with a clearance off the line.'

Just watched the highlights, Atwell points for a GK so last touch was the attacker. Not stating Cash didn't contact first which changed the angle of contact, but definitely would have been easier without Cash so he should still get massive credit.

Letting in all those goals, if only we hadn't brought him on.

If we had not conceded that late goal at Cithe we would both be on 64 and same games
Tight Margins
Would it be better if either the Jawdies or Chelsea got a result tomorrow cutting the other one free ?
Or a draw ?
If Jawdies win, Chelsea may be more concerned about winning the ? cup and not compete for the last two games
What do we think ?

[Pat Mustard]

Draw tomorrow between Saudi and Chavski would absolutely be the best result - would mean if either of them drop another point we finish above them with two wins.

[manic-road]

Briliant result, may not have looked pretty but we had the better quality where it mattered.

[RamboandBruno]

Iraola, gave a really good interview, comes across a pretty top bloke. Future Villa manager maybe, when the dark moment one day comes.

[AV84]

I think one of them dropping 3 points is better then them both getting 1. We stay level with one of them then.

I made the same point in the CL thread. A Newcastle win would be the worst result (but sadly is also the most likely).
