    O'Neill said: "We were really great in the first half. Maybe we could have scored more goals.



    "I believe now that seven points will definitely get us through to the play-off stages."





    Steve Sidwell scored 26 minutes into the game with a low shot deflected by John Carew and Slavia skipper Marek Suchy to put the Premier League side ahead.



    Ashley Young hit the post from a free kick two minutes later and Carew then forced a spectacular save from Slavia keeper Martin Vaniak with a low shot as Slavia struggled to produce a decent pass.
