Gabriel Agbonlahor: 'Win over West Bromwich Albion will give us confidence'

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor believes that his side's victory over West Bromwich Albion will give them the confidence they need to fight off relegation this season.

Aston Villa striker Gabriel Agbonlahor believes that his side's last-gasp victory over West Bromwich Albion will give the team the necessary confidence to help fight off relegation from the Premier League.

Tim Sherwood's side grabbed three vital points with a 2-1 victory over Tony Pulis and his men, after Christian Benteke converted an injury-time penalty to help hand Villa their first win in 12 games.

"This result will give us confidence," said Agbonlahor, according to BBC Sport.

"We believe we can stay up and we're not going to look back now. Any point is crucial but to get all three.

"We've not had any luck all season but we did today with the late penalty."

Agbonlahor was also on the scoresheet for Villa, who now sit outside of the relegation zone.
