Nigeria winger, Victor Moses, was the hero for Stoke City in the club’s 2-1 win over Stoke City at Villa Park as the Barclays English Premier League entered match day 26.
Moses netted a 90th minute penalty as the Potters came back from a goal down to defeat the Villans on Saturday.
Moses was cynically fouled by Villa’s Dutch defender, Ron Vlaar and the 22-year-old Nigerian picked up the ball and decided to take responsibility.
He showed nerves of steel to calmly send his penalty into the bottom left hand corner of Brad Guzan’s net, sending the American the wrong way in the process.
The goal, which was Moses’ second in the league this season was his second in almost four months.
It also represents the first time in three seasons that Moses will be scoring more than one league goal in a single season.
Saturday’s win takes Stoke up to 10th in the Premier League standings with 36 points from 26 matches.
