Aston Villa beat Leicester, after half time pep talk from new manager Tim Sherwood

New manager Sherwood made an impromptu appearance during Villa’s 2-1 win over Leicester with the score locked at 0-0. Leandro Bacuna and Scott Sinclair then netted in the second half to send Villa into the last eight for the first time in five years.
Marshall, Villa’s first-team coach, was in charge after Wednesday’s sacking of Paul Lambert but admitted Sherwood made his presence felt yesterday. “He came in and made a couple of points to the lads, a couple of bits and pieces for everyone. I thought the boys delivered in the second-half and were very good,” he said.
