West Bromwich Albion matchwinner Craig Gardner explained his shirt presentation after victory over Aston Villa.

The midfielder scored his first goal for Albion in the 1-0 victory at The Hawthorns on Saturday.

Gardner also handed his shirt to young fan Rui Roper at the end of the game.

He said: "It was nice to give a little bit back, I'm a fan myself. I've been in that position that little lad has been in. It's nice, he'll remember that for the rest of his life. He's going to go home, probably sleep with the shirt on, tell his friends and family.

"I do know the kid, he was in my eye line. It was going to go to a kid and lucky enough I knew him. I know his dad."
