Ali Benarbia magic does the trick for Man City

Manchester City 3 Aston Villa 1

With Keegan’s Manchester City side struggling to find a breakthrough after Dion Dublin pegged back Marc-Vivien Foe’s opener before the interval, Benarbia was brought off the bench to change the game.

And the 34-year-old completed his task to perfection, flying in to meet Nicolas Anelka’s cross with a perfectly executed diving header before setting up Foe for the strike which sealed a welcome 3-1 win and extended Villa’s unhappy record of failing to win an away game all season.
