We never really controlled the game, nor did Villa.
Both teams had spells of possession, the difference was with their spells they got at us and had a spell where they could of scored 2 or 3, first half Abraham was through when Tosin passed the ball straight to them, fortunately he passed it back to Johnstone, second half he had two headers, one he should of done better, the other was a good effort but went wide, he also had the ball at his feet on his own 6 yards out and again managed to mess it up.
Our chances, a Gayle header over in the start of the 2nd half? And Villas keeper is their weakest player yet we never looked like scoring.
When we had the ball, usually at the back, Hegazi to Dawson, look up, Dawson back to Hegazi, look up, Hegazi to Dawson, now and again they found Gibbs or Barnes with a crossfield pass. We were neat and tidy without ever looking like scoring, yes the first goal was a fluke and maybe had we got the first goal it would of changed the approach but we didnt and they looked a lot more comfortable and more threatening than us.
We badly missed HRK and Morrison, without them i am not sure we currently have the personnel to play 4-3-3 against the better side, against the weaker sides we should just over power them which we have done a few times this season regardless of the formation.
PS - i am delighted how we got the equaliser, they have had more than enough luck against us.
