UPDATED: 11:13 EST, 13 April 2013 Aston Villa missed the chance to draw well free from the Barclays Premier League relegation zone as Fabian Delph's terrible trip to the office proved expensive against Fulham. Henry Lambert's side was unlucky to not have brought at the split but Charles N'Zogbia eventually made the breakthrough ahead of the time draw at Villa Park. But Delph's own target, combined with an obvious neglect in the 73rd second, allowed Fulham to go home with a point and denied Villa the opportunity to go five points away from the underside three. Deep trouble: Fabian Delph (right) ratings an objective that leaves Aston Villa in heavy relegation difficulty Aston Villa: Guzan, Lowton, Vlaar, Baker, Bennett, Westwood, Delph, Bowery (Holman 69), Weimann (Bent 76), N'Zogbia (Sylla 68 ),Benteke.

Latest Premier League table and results Accommodation headed into the fit relatively moment their move from relegation correctly, winning three of the past four to leave them two things clear of the drop zone heading into the game, with rivals Sunderland and Wigan maybe not in action today. They certainly were however without in-form forward Gabriel Agbonlahor, who was simply presumably eliminated with injury or disease and replaced by N'Zogbia. Fulham suffered a blow in the 10th minute replaced by Stanislav Manolev in a otherwise quiet opening time and when Damien Duff was pushed off with a knee injury. Ashley Westwood's 24th-minute spot caused Fulham a minute of panic before Christian Benteke side-footed over from towards just beyond your six-yard box when he should have included with his overall tally of 19 targets from Andreas Weimann's ball in. In the 31st minute Benteke and N'Zogbia enjoyed some one-two passes with each other ahead of the former found his colleague with a delicate combination on the left, which N'Zogbia tried to show house just for Mark Schwarzer to save lots of amazingly. The Cottagers' innovative office were fighting to spark any such thing of note, though Dimitar Berbatov did power two half-chances. N'Zogbia saw a left-footed shot straight at Schwarzer parried over and Weimann sent a half-volley extensive shortly before half-time as Fulham reached the break happy to be on an even keel. Starting the scoring: Charles N'Zogbia (centre) remembers the first goal Breakaway: Ashley Westwood (right) dribbles past Bryan Ruiz Buying a gap: N'Zogbia dribbled around Eyong Enoh (centre) and Giorgos Karagounis (left) Villa held up the force from the restart however they were nearly tried on the counter in the 50th minute when Bryan Ruiz's excellent pass found a relatively offside Berbatov, only for the Bulgarian to extend his low shot onto the outside of the left-hand post. Villa's stress eventually told in the 55th minute. Matthew Lowton found Weimann in the box and although Brede Hangeland blocked the Austrian's attempt, N'Zogbia had time to change the ball onto his left foot and extend it in to the left-hand corner. The equaliser got in the 66th second. Ruiz's place from the right needs to have been dealt with comfortably at the near post but Villa midfielder Delph contrived the flick the ball backwards with his mind, leaving Brad Guzan seated and Westwood unable to scramble it away before it crossed the line. Operating his magic: Dimitar Berbatov (middle) tries to drive his area ahead Finding Jordan Bowery struggle for the ball and shirt: Kieran Richardson (right) Apartment change Yacouba Sylla was booked scarcely one minute after replacing N'Zogbia before Fulham replacement Mladen Petric led the remarkable Ruiz's teasing mix wide when he needs to have done better. Villa had a sublime opportunity in the 73rd second when Delph lost the opportunity to atone for the own target, shooting a free ball at the rear post high and wide along with his left foot from Weimann's teasing mix. Darren Bent entered the arena to rapturous applause in the second before another effort was smashed by Benteke off goal after setting himself up effectively with full-time approaching.
