What they Said

โ€œWe had enough chances but never took them. When you donโ€™t take chances, at any level of football, then you get punished. You donโ€™t have a divine right to beat any team.

โ€œDarren Bent is deadly in those situations and on another night they would have gone in. But like I said, if you donโ€™t take chances things like that happen.

โ€œItโ€™s disappointing because in the first two Premier League games weโ€™ve been absolutely solid - we havenโ€™t conceded a goal. Shayโ€™s save was a warning and we never took that warning, but it should never have got that far. We should have finished it off.โ€

Paul Lambert, Wednesday, 27 August 2014.

*Premier League Aston Villa suffered a shock exit from the Capital One Cup as Romain Vincelotโ€™s late header gave Leyton Orient a dramatic victory.*

The League One side had earlier hit the woodwork when Mathieu Baudryโ€™s header was pushed on to the bar by Shay Given.

Darren Bent had Villaโ€™s best chance but was denied by Gary Woodsโ€™s save and Nathan Baker and Ashley Westwood also headed off target when well placed.

But Vincelot scored in the 87th minute, following Bradley Pritchardโ€™s corner.

Orient, 14th in the third tier of English football, held on for the victory to move into the third round of the competition for only the second time in 23 years.

Nevertheless, it was an embarrassing night for a Villa side who failed to hit the target in their 0-0 draw against Newcastle on Saturday and only had one effort on target at home against a side two divisions below them.

Bent, making his first start for Paul Lambertโ€™s team since May 2013, was played through by debutant Joe Cole but Oโ€™s goalkeeper Woods saved the shot with his legs.

Orient ended strongly as Baudry hit the crossbar and Jay Simpson had a goal ruled out for offside, before Vincelot converted Pritchardโ€™s cross.

That goal was enough for Russell Sladeโ€™s team, who will entertain fellow League One side Sheffield United in the third round.
