Thursday, December 1, 2005 - Web posted at 7:08:15 GMT Doncaster down Villa LONDON - Doncaster Rovers claimed their second Premiership scalp of the season when they beat Aston Villa to move into the League Cup quarter-finals with a 3-0 win on Tuesday that added to the pressure on embattled Villa boss David O'Leary. |

Elsewhere in the fourth round, Premiership giants Arsenal defeated Championship leaders Reading 3-0 at Highbury. Meanwhile Villa were almost joined in the out tray by city rivals and fellow Premiership strugglers Birmingham, who were twice pegged back by Championship tail-enders Millwall before prevailing 4-3 on penalties. At Belle Vue, Doncaster, the lowest ranked team left in the tournament, outclassed five-times League Cup winners Villa. O'Leary, while paying tribute to Doncaster's football, said decisions had gone against his side with referee Mike Dean awarding Doncaster the 20th minute penalty from which they took the lead but denying Villa a spot-kick 12 minutes from time. -Nampa-AFP |
