Aston Villa 1 - Manchester United 4 (Premier League, October 20, 2007) (Longer highlights here.) Agbonlahor headed Villa in front, but United equalised when Rooney capitalised on a Zat Knight mistake. Rooney then collected a precise pass from Tevez, and he had time to control the ball before slotting it past Carson. Villa then left in a third goal just before the break when Craig Gardner sliced the ball into his own net after Ferdinand’s strike on goal. (First-half highlights here.) It then went from bad to worse for Villa, as both Reo-Coker and Scoot Carson were sent off, with the latter incident resulting in Rooney’s penalty kick which was sensationally saved by Stuart Taylor. Yet United were relentless, and scored their fourth from Giggs’ shot with deflected off Laursen.

ljepo,ljepo,odlično smo se vratili,a mislio sam da će villa uspjeti održati to vodstvo,ili da ćemo uspjeti zabiti samo 1 gol.
