Watch Match of the Day tonight and tweet me about that goal. I'm still excited by it.
All over - massive win for Aston Villa, with Lowton's incredible strike putting them 2-1 up late on before Benteke made sure. Stoke in the relegation mire now.
Adam has been booked for a tackle on N'Zogbia.
Steven N'Zonzi with a wild tackle on Bennett as Stoke lose their heads.
Lowton's was his second ever PL goal. His only other came in the home win against Swansea in September.
Benteke scores his 10th PL goal of 2013 – becoming the outright top PL scorer this calendar year.
It was poor defending from last man Huth as he slid to intercept - and failed.
GOAL FOR VILLA! 3-1! BENTEKE! He bears down on goal all alone with options and picks out the near post bottom corner!
Stoke throwing everything at the Villa goal - so far they have repelled it all.
Desperate defending at the far post from the away side as Stoke send in a cross.
GOAL FOR VILLA! WHAT A GOAL FROM LOWTON! 2-1 TO VILLA! He chests the falling clearance down and sends an incredible volley into the far top corner from way out!!!!!!!!!!!
N'Zogbia wins a corner. He takes it himself, but it is cleared.
Villa change: Darren Bent on for Weimann.
Stoke should have had a penalty moments ago - the ball hit Villa centre-half Ron Vlaar on the arm.
No surprises in store for Villa as Jerome lumbers up - and he smashes it straight into the stand.
Free-kick to Stoke five yards outside the box to the left of centre.
Villa change: Charles N'Zogbia on for Bowery.
Devastating for Villa - how are they not winning this game?
STOKE EQUALISE! KIGHTLY! 1-1! Adam finds Walters on the left, who skips inside and finds Adam again... he lunges to get the ball to the former Wolves winger, who finishes into the bottom corner with aplomb!
Pressure now on the away goal. Kightly's cross is blocked and the Stoke fans roar their men on.
