What they Said
"We were pleased to get something out of this game as Millwall were first to the ball and calling most of the shots throughout the opening half.โ
Graham Taylor.
TONY Cascarino gave Millwall the perfect start to their first division career with two well-taken goals against Aston Villa.
Millwall's first goal caught the Villa defence napping as fellow Irish international Kevin O'Callaghan's cross found the unmarked Cascarino who easily headed home.
Still reeling from that blow, Villa slipped further behind two minutes later.
Allan Evans, the Villa captain, lost the ball in his own penalty area and Cascarino punished the mistake with his second goal.
Desperate to find a way back into the game, Villa reduced the deficit in the 30th minute when Stuart Gray converted a penalty after Andy Gray had been brought down.
Villa's search for an equaliser was rewarded 12 minutes later when a mix up between the Millwall goalkeeper Brian Horne and his defender lan Dawes, enabled Alan Mclnally to slot the ball into an empty net.
