   • 2011 January 22, Phil McNulty, “Aston Villa 1 - 0 Man City”, BBC:

     City, predictably, subjected Villa to a sustained spell of pressure as the clock ticked down - and the home team hada [sic] double escape with eight minutes left. De Jong's shot was unwittingly deflected on to his own post by Clark and then Dzeko headed Johnson's cross wide at the far post when he should have restored equality.
