What they Said
โThere are bound to be tight experiences in front of us and we have all got to keep our nerve.
โWe are not going to have too many games when we are comfortably ahead by two goals.
โI have told our players they must not become affected when we score or maybe concede a goal.โ
Graham Taylor.
FULL-BACK Kevin Gage earned joint leaders Aston Villa a crucial victory over their Southampton rivals yesterday.
Villa took a deserved 39th minute lead when winger Tony Daley moved onto a long throw and drove a left-foot shot into the net.
Glenn Cockerill's 54th minute equaliser was brilliantly taken, chesting Rodney Wallace's cross down to drive a left foot half volley past Spink.
Eleven minutes from the end Villa grabbed the points to stay level pegging with Liverpool after Ormondroyd took a return pass from Olney and crossed low and lethally from the left. When Daley's shot was blocked, the ball spun to Gage who drove home his third goal of the season.
