Well, apart from former manager Ron Saunders making his first return to Villa Park in over 20 years, there was no other Christmas cheer to be found there yesterday as Villa were beaten
3-0 by Manchester United. Villa's next game is on Boxing Day against Tottenham Hotspur at White Heart Lane. It won't be an easy one.
Meanwhile, over the other side of the pond, the
Caps suffered a loss of form with a
5-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, and a
4-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils in the week, but they managed to hold on last night to beat the Toronto Maple Leafs
3-2 at the Air Canada Centre. Up next for the Caps: the Sabres on Boxing Day.
