Villa survive one of the most laughably bad offside decisions ever seen to recover a draw against Middlesbrough and extend their run to a single defeat in fourteen Premier League games under Martin O'Neill.

Gareth Barry scores his fourth penalty of the season after a shocking offside decision gifts Gareth Southgate's struggling Middlesbrough side the opener.

Stuart Taylor keeps his first clean sheet in a Villa shirt on his 5th appearance (4 Starts) to make it W2 D2 L1, 7 Goals Conceded and 1 Clean Sheet so far in his Villa career.

Milan Baroš makes it 15 games without a goal in a Villa shirt and 29 games without an assist as he is yet to be involved in a goal in his 13 appearances under Martin O’Nell. His record of W13 D16 L13, 12 Goals, 6 Assists and 6 Bookings at a goal involvement rate of one for every 2.33 games he has played so far in his Villa career looks very different from his first 20 starts - a run that had brought 15 goal involvements at a rate of 1.40 per game.
