23'

Fellaini gets his head on the end of a Baines cross, however he is unable to test Friedel.

21'

19'

Leighton Baines has looked a threat early on for Everton. His combination with Pienaar is causing Villa problems.

18'

Villa enjoying their best spell of pressure so far, Everton back on the attack though...
