A devastating second-half display from Aston Villa gains all three points as John Carew’s first hat-trick for the club gives the Villans a 4-1 win over a Newcastle side who were pretty abysmal after the break.

Dream start for the away team as Owen gets a flick on from close range to a superb Milner cross from the left. There is a slight touch off Gareth Barry on its way past Carson.

Villa are level from an unlikely source. Bouma comes onto his right foot 22 yards from goal and his shot takes a slight deflection while Given slips slightly. The result sees the ball roll into the back of the net.

Young fires in the corner and Carew is on hand in a crowd of players to guide the ball into the far corner with his head.

Villa extend their lead after some comedy defending from Newcastle. This time Butt’s tame header goes straight to the big striker who reacts quickly to nod home from close range.

A hat-trick for the striker as he thrashes home the spot-kick to give Harper not the slightest chance.
