Ghana winger Albert Adomah scored the opener for Aston Villa in their 3-1 triumph over Cardiff City in the English Championship on Saturday afternoon at the Villa Park.

Adomah's opener was cancelled out by Rickie Lambert but Jonathan Kodjia's header restored Villa's lead and a late penalty from Rudy Gestede sealed the win.

The goal is the first for the former Middlesbrough man since his arrival in the summer as his performance continues to appreciate.

The Ghanaian winger, who has been in fine form since Steve Bruce took charge last month, slotted home after good work from the two Jordans, Ayew and Amavi, down the left wing.

Adomah could have increased the tally for Villa moments after his goal but saw his effort go just wide off the post.
