Love this line

"But, incredibly, this time they did. On 58 minutes the Villa winger prepared to venture down the left, beat his man and put a good ball in for the England international. Again."

Loved that the 3rd goal had shades of Withe’s in ‘82.

Great review.
The last paragraph about Nas and Wes sums up very well, that they have been the catalyst for these times.
