ON THIS DAY
Sunday, 19 April 2015
Villa follow up their best performance of the season with an even better one as Jack Grealish stars at Wembley to earn Villa an FA Cup final against Arsenal.
Villa’s twenty first appearance in the FA Cup semi final and one of their best sees an effervescent team under Tim Sherwood look the polar opposite of their performances under Paul Lambert as a Jack Grealish inspired Villa light up the Wembley stage. Villa were not the finished article by any means, in fact serious doubts remained, however Tim Sherwood was showing he could get things out of a squad previously unimaginable.
Jack Grealish contributes his 2nd assist on his 19th appearance for Villa (5 Starts) and first at Wembley to make it W10 D4 L5, 2 Assists, 2 Bookings, 1 Red Card so far in his Villa career in a performance that brought him to the attention of the wider public.
