LEAGUE CUP SEMI SECOND LEG
VILLA 2-1 LEICESTER AGG 3-2
TERRIFIC TREZEGUET
It was made by
Grealish, who held off Ricardo just inside the Leicester area while he waited
for support. Eventually he bounced a short reverse pass to the overlapping
Targett, who smashed a first-time shot that whistled past the left leg of
Schmeichel. He couldn’t decide whether to try to save it with his hands or
feet; in the end, he did neither.
Leicester
moved the ball nicely from left to right and then back across again. Barnes
swerved away from Guilbert on the edge of the area and hammered a speculative
low cross into ths six-yard box. It cleared everyone in front of goal but
reached Iheanacho beyond the far post, and he finished gleefully from close
range. It was a harder chance than it looked, actually, because of the pace on
the ball. Iheanacho adjusted his feet quickly on the run and slammed it in with
his left foot.
Elmohamady, deep on the right, curled a
glorious ball between the Leicester defenders and keeper. It went beyond the
far post to Trezeguet, who cushioned a beautiful left-footed volley across
Schmeichel and into the far corner.
MY
OPINION
This is not the way that I
thought this tie would go in the slightest with the position both teams are in
the league. Villa are a small club but they did deserve to get the late goal
but the result did feel that it was cruel on Leicester after the lateness of
the goal
