Match Commentary
90' Final whistle goes and for a second weekend in a row Newcastle draw a blank. It had looked like Villa were going to run wild until Newcastle were reduced to 10 men and decided to dig in for all they were worth. A performance full of character from the visitors and an opportunity wasted for David O'Leary's men. Liverpool the winners then today as they remain in fourth, but with these two still on their heels. 0-0 the final score |
90' No one able to get a foot on it in the tense last couple of minutes. When Samuel finally does his deep cross is too long for everyone except Given |
90' Given, who has been warned several times through the game, finally gets a caution for time wasting at goal kicks |
