da bet7k： Aston Villa and Stoke shared a 1-1 draw at Villa Park on Monday.
The relegation-threatened hosts took the lead through an accomplished strike from young Austrian forward Andreas Weimann, but a second half Robert Huth goal ensured that it ended with a point apiece.
Villa boss Alex McLeish stated that he knows that his side are in a battle to maintain their Premier League status, and that every game from now until the end of the season holds extra importance.
“We gained some ground and we would have loved the three points,” McLeish told Sky Sports.
“It’s a cup final every week for this club. If the players battle like they did today from start to finish then they’ll get some breaks.
“I couldn’t fault any man at all for the effort they gave. Sometimes the quality can be the only thing that’s missing, but at least the effort was top drawer,” he continued.
The Scottish coach went on to praise goalscorer Weimann, who he felt gave the home side some belief.
“Goals talk and it will be hard for me to leave Weimann out.
“It was a fantastic strike. We needed a bit of inspiration at that time and it was inspirational.
“It came out of nothing and was a wonderful goal from a great young prospect. He is a good finisher and we’ve seen it again with that goal,” he concluded.
