Tuncay dedicates goals to Middlesbrough coach Agnew

Tuncay Sanli has dedicated his goals for Middlesbrough in their victory over Aston Villa to coach Steve Agnew.

"I'm very happy," said Tuncay after the last gasp winner that sparked badge-kissing joy.

"We have been celebrating as it is Agger's birthday and this was my present to him.

"I am very happy for him, and for me too but mostly I am happy for the team."

The Turkey star also told the Evening Gazette: "Everyone worked very hard in the game but the manager had said we must relax and enjoy the game and I think we did that.

"We were all confident that we could win the game, not only come for a draw, but win.

"And to beat a top six team was a very good result. We are all very, very happy."
