Villa plunges into bottom three, Cardiff on top

LONDON: Aston Villa crashed in the Championship relegation zone after a 2-1 defeat at Reading, while Cardiff sit top of the table following their 2-0 win over Sheffield United on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila).

Villa’s latest stumble means their star defender John Terry is still searching for his first Championship win since joining Steve Bruce’s side following his release by Chelsea at the end of last season.
