CYRILLE Regis snatched Aston Villa's last-gasp equaliser to rescue boss Ron Atkinson from despair. Big Ron was staring defeat in the face when Villa reject Kevin Gage fired Sheffield United in front with only 11 minutes left. But veteran Regis turned home a low cross for his ninth goal of the season in the dying seconds.
