 Osaze Odemwingie was on target again for Stoke City as they came from behind to record an outstanding 4-1 away win over Aston Villa in the English Premiership on Sunday evening.

The Nigeria international scored in the 22nd minute to equalize for the visitors after Christian Benteke gave the hosts a fifth minute lead.

Odemwingie's goal was the result of a good combination with Peter Crouch, as the Nigerian chipped the ball to the England international who nodded the return ball to Odemwingie who got into a gap between two defenders before holding off Ryan Bertrand to blast into bottom corner of Brad Guzan's post.

Crouch then scored four minutes later to put the visitors in front, before Steven N'Zonzi scored in the 42nd minute to give the Potters a comfortable first half lead. Before a 90th minute goal from Geoff Cameron helped Mark Hughes men seal the comfortable away win.

Odemwingie has now scored four goals in eight appearances for Stoke City since joining them in late January from Cardiff City.
