Super Eagles forward Victor Moses grabbed the winner as Stoke City came from behind to earn a 2-1 Premier League win and spoil Tim Sherwood's first match in charge of Aston Villa.
A stoppage-time penalty from Moses spoiled Tim Sherwood's first match in charge of Aston Villa as Stoke City earned a 2-1 victory in Saturday's Premier League match.
Sherwood saw his side remain in the bottom three after Ron Vlaar hauled down Moses, with the forward coolly converting from 12 yards after the defender had seen red.
Scott Sinclair was able to take one of the few chances the home side created as he headed in his first top-flight goal since August 2012 after 20 minutes, but Stoke restored parity before the break.
Mame Biram Diouf met Stephen Ireland's cross seven yards from goal and placed his header past Brad Guzan on the goalkeeper's 100th successive league start.
A second half devoid of quality and chances failed to lift the atmosphere inside Villa Park, with Stoke slightly edging proceedings before Moses' winner.
