What they Said

Brighton & Hove Albion.png

โ€œDavidโ€™s [Ginola] goal got us out of jail.

โ€œIt rescued us and kept us in the tie. This is two-legged football and it does not matter how you play as long as you go through.

โ€œAfter David scored I thought we would draw 1-1, but to be honest they deserved a 2-1 win.โ€

Paul Merson.

*Ginolaโ€™s strike supplies lifeline*

Aston Villaโ€™s captain Paul Merson was thankful that a fine strike from David Ginola handed his team an Intertoto Cup third-round lifeline against Slaven Belupo on Saturday.

Villa may have slipped to a 2-1 defeat in Croatia, but Ginolaโ€™s stunning 30-yard drive that briefly put the team on level terms could prove crucial in Saturdayโ€™s second leg at Villa Park. โ€œDavidโ€™s goal got us out of jail,โ€ said Merson. โ€œIt rescued us and kept us in the tie. This is two-legged football and it does not matter how you play as long as you go through.

โ€œAfter David scored I thought we would draw 1-1, but to be honest they deserved a 2-1 win.โ€

The result will have left Villaโ€™s manager John Gregory feeling even worse, after he was unable to make the trip to the Balkans having suffered a bout of food poisoning.

Yet it could have been a far bigger winning margin for the home side, who had dominated proceedings in the second half but only goals from Pavo Crnac and Goran Gersak accrued from their 17 shots on target.

โ€œThe heat played a big part,โ€ admitted Merson. โ€œWe have only had a weekโ€™s training, but I am not making any excuses. The better team won and we have got to make sure that we are fitter next time.โ€

Villa, bidding to recover quickly from the recent sales of David James to West Ham and Gareth Southgate to Middlesbrough, left their ยฃ9.5m record signing Juan Pablo Angel and winger Ginola on the bench. With Gregory on his sick bed, the reserve-team manager Kevin MacDonald and the chief scout Ross MacLaren took charge of affairs.
