Holman on target to help Villa eliminate Norwich

Brett Holman scored his second Aston Villa goal on Tuesday night as Villains bat Norwich City 4-1 in the Capital One Cup.

The Australian international netted a brilliant 20-yard half-volley to equalise for Paul Lambert's men in the 21st minute after Steve Morison put the Canaries ahead two minutes earlier.

Andreas Weimann, who replaced the injured Darren Bent in the first half, netted a quick double in the final ten minutes before Christian Benteke added a fourth for Villa in injury-time.

Holman's goal was his second in three outings following his maiden Villa strike in the 1-1 Premier League draw with QPR just under two weeks ago.
