Aston Villa head coach Steve Bruce was happy with the character his team showed to get the win despite being behind on two occasions.
He told the club website: “I thought it was an excellent game – end-to-end and great for any neutral that came to watch the game today.”
“We went for broke and were a bit open for my liking in the first half, conceding twice.”
“We were under the cosh a little bit. So to show the character and run out worthy winners, scoring four times, is testament to what we’re about at the moment.”
“We’re in the melting pot with 12 games left. Long may it continue.”
