Cahill and Arteta make 9 men Villa pay!

Aston Villa were made to pay by Everton as the Home side won 3-0. Martin Laursen and Nicky Shorey were both sent for an early shower as Everton ran riot. The first incident of the match came after 4 minutes when Gabriel Agbonlahor hit the bar from a 25 yard shot, Villa were cheering and Everton hardly had the ball, but as the game progressed, Aston Villa got sloppy and in the 22nd minute, Steven Pienaar was taken out by villa skipper Martin Laursen. The ref didn't think twice and gave Laursen a straight-red card. From the free-kick, Cahill, the lay-off man, passed the ball to Leighton Baines who struck it hard and low towards the bottom corner, but it just missed the post. As the game went on, Everton showed a bit of characeter and Cahill got his reward, he took the ball past Shorey, then past Cuéllar and finished superbly past Friedal. Shorey got a yellow card for flying into the Aussie, but advantage was played, superb refereeing. At Half Time, Everton must have thought they could expand on this lead, 4 minutes into the second have and Jacobson was brought down roughly by Shorey, who then got his marching orders. With the score at 1-0, Everton brought on Leon Osman and Louis Saha, and this changed the game, In the 74th minute, Leon Osman, took it round Luke Young and crossed the ball in for Fellaini who couldn't get his head to the ball, Cahill did though and it went in off the post. Friedal was furious and through the ball away, lucky the ref didn't see. Aston Villa tried hard to for the last ten minutes and were awarded a coner, however Barry's cross was gathered by Howard who punted the ball up for Saha, Cuéllar was the only Villa man back, and he failed under the pressure and missed the ball, Saha was through and took it towards Friedal, Saha pulled the trigger back and dummied, Friedal was caught off guard by this and slipped and Saha rolled it into the path of Mikel Arteta who couldn't miss.

Goals: Tim Cahill 42' and 74', Mikel Arteta 85'
Red Cards : Martin Laursen 22', Nicky Shorey 51'
Man of the Match : Tim Cahill
