Villa battles back to draw West Brom
Print Edition
Ashley Westwood capped a superb second half comeback for Aston Villa as they secured a 2-2 draw at West Bromwich Albion on Monday.
Paul Lambert’s side looked destined for a derby defeat at the Hawthorns after Albion raced into a two-goal lead after 11 minutes thanks to a pair of fine goals from Shane Long.
But Villa struck twice in the space of nine minutes after the break as Karim El Ahmadi reduced the deficit before Westwood’s first goal for the club ensured the two midlands teams remain level on 15 points in the English Premier League table.
Lambert, who sparked Villa’s revival with a triple substitution in the 57th minute, said: “In the second half we were fantastic. We were really resolute.
“We spoke about making changes at half-time but we decided to wait a bit. The three of them (Andreas Weimann, Gabriel Agbonlahor and Fabian Delph) have been big players for us all season and they made a huge difference.”
