Goals: Villa 10', 80' - Kamara 24', Leacock 78' (og.)

Emanuel Villa grabbed a brace for Derby but a 2-2 home draw against Fulham was not enough for the Rams who were finally relegated from the Premier League.

Paul Jewell’s side broke the deadlock when Dean Leacock’s long-range shot struck the knee of Villa on the edge of the penalty area and fooled goalkeeper Kasey Keller.

Roy Hodgson’s side equalized in the 24th minute when Diomansy Kamara headed Simon Davies’ cross home from six yards.

The Cottagers then took the lead when Leacock put through his own net in the 78th minute but Villa equalised with a glancing header two minutes later.

Derby were unable to find a winner and are relegated to the Coca-Cola Championship after winning promotion through the playoffs last season.
