Aston Villa 4-0 EvertonPA
Milan Baros (35)
Mark Delaney (48)
Juan Pablo Angel (82)
Milan Baros (84)
Aston Villa literally needed a helping hand from striker Milan Baros to register only their third home Premiership win of the season and increase the pressure on Everton boss David Moyes with a 4-0 romp.

But they felt a sense of injustice when the Czech Republic international used his hand to control a cross from Gareth Barry before tucking away the opening goal after 36 minutes.
Baros could find himself in hot water with the Football Association after racing off behind the goal to cup his hand to his ear in the direction of the Everton fans situated in the North Stand.
But that will not worry him or Villa in the short term as they moved further away from the relegation zone and left Moyes to reflect on a third successive defeat.
Villa cashed in on their good fortune to deadly effect with Mark Delaney, Juan Pablo Angel and Baros again netting in a one-sided second period.
After 48 minutes Delaney doubled their lead with only his second Premiership goal in seven years at the club.
But Moyes will be furious at his defence, who allowed the Wales international to run unopposed to the near post to meet James Milner's cross and flick the ball over Nigel Martyn into the far corner of the net.
Moyes brought on Duncan Ferguson for Tim Cahill with nine minutes remaining, but Angel sealed victory for Villa when he tucked away a pass from Baros.
The cheering had hardly died down before Baros struck for the second time in the game when turning in Aaron Hughes's low cross.
It was a fitting send-off for Villa chairman Doug Ellis if, as expected, he relinquishes control of the club in the next few days.
Baros admits handball
Aston Villa match-winner Milan Baros admitted handling the ball to set up his opening goal against Everton as David O'Leary's side romped to a 4-0 victory.
Everton felt a sense of injustice when the Czech Republic striker used his hand to control a cross from Gareth Barry before tucking away the opening goal after 36 minutes.
But that will not worry him or Villa in the short term as they moved further away from the relegation zone but left Everton boss David Moyes to reflect on a third successive defeat.
Villa cashed in on their good fortune to deadly effect with Mark Delaney, Juan Pablo Angel and Baros again netting in a one-sided second period.
Baros said: 'Yes I think maybe it was handball. To be honest, I think it was but the referee hasn't seen it. But it was a very important goal for us.
'We went 1-0 up, the whole team played well and we deserved the win today. I felt good and we're happy with the three points.
'We have a very important game with Fulham in two days so we have to forget today and be ready for that.'
Delaney, who scored to silence his critics after requesting a transfer from Villa, admitted the goal - his first in six years - came at the right time.
'It's been a long time, but I fancied it today playing at centre-half,' he told Sky Sports 1.
'It was a vital second goal, at 1-0 it could have gone either way.
'I've always said I wanted to stay at Villa and that will always be the case on my behalf.'
O'Leary was delighted with his side's victory and was not worried about the nature of the opener.
'It was a lovely start,' he told Sky Sports 1. 'I thought we totally deserved it, we dominated from the start and should have scored more in the first half.
'The players' commitment, attitude and hunger was fantastic.
'I thought the first goal was important, I was delighted it came because I thought we should have been two or three up before that. It might have been fortunate, I haven't seen it, but we got it and we deserve a break this season - and if we got it tonight, I'm delighted.'
David Moyes was upset at Baros' opener but admitted his side allowed Villa too much space in the penalty area.
'It was too easy for Aston Villa to score in the end,' he told Sky Sports. 'I thought we played well in the first half barring the first five minutes.
'I thought we did well in the second half apart from the first five minutes.'
Moyes believes referee Mike Riley's decision to allow Baros' opener to stand changed the match, adding: 'It was a terrible decision that turned the game.
'There's no excuse for it to be given - he looked straight at it.
'It wasn't just one, it was two as Liam Ridgewell leads with his hand in the build-up.'
Of Baros' handball Moyes added: 'It was deliberate which should have been a booking, not a goal.' |
