Listen - Chelsea 4-4 Aston Villa - O'Neill proud of worthy point

Aston Villa manager Martin O'Neill, speaking after a contender for 'Match of the Season' says he believed his side were well worth a point after watching them concede a two-goal advantage at Stamford Bridge.

Early goals from Shaun Maloney put the Villans two up, before Zat Knight was controversially sent off for a professional foul, allowing Andrei Shevchenko to slot home from the spot. The Ukrainian made it 2-2 five minutes after the break before Brazilian centre back Alex put the Blues' ahead. Martin Laursen nodded home to square the match before Ricardo Carvalho was red carded for a two footed lunge. But 10-man Chelsea got their noses in front again as Michael Ballack thought he had won the game for the home side when he swept home with just two minutes to go. But a further sending off in injury time for handball allowed Gareth Barry to score from the spot and make sure the spoils were shared.
