Marquis late goal piles pain on Villa

FA Cup Fourth Round: Millwall 2 Aston Villa 1

Following their midweek Capital One Cup exit to npower League Two outfit Bradford, the last thing Paul Lambert’s side needed was a tricky FA Cup tie against more lower-league opposition but their cause received a tonic start when Darren Bent put them in front after 22 minutes.

But goals from Danny Shittu and Marquis sealed a well-deserved win for Millwall and piled even more pressure on the Villa boss.
