For his goal, the defender mimicked the goal celebration of Villa midfielder Amadou Onana.

Gabriel said: “Yes, like I told you, we'll get the three points, no? Those sort of things spur you on. It's good fun. It's fun for them, it's fun for us as well.

"Like I said, we'll get the three points.

“It was not to get them back or to get Onana back. I know he's a good guy. So, yes, no fighting, nothing. Just something to celebrate.”
