THIS is the moment Beram Kayal delivered a very special Valentine’s gift – and sent Albion into the heart of race for automatic promotion.
The Israeli star’s winner against Bolton put his side LEVEL on points with third-placed Burnley and just ONE POINT behind Middlesbrough, who go to Leeds tonight.
Their hard-earned 3-2 success over Bolton, in which Jamie Murphy and Tomer Hemed were again on target, also keeps them hot on the heels of leaders Hull City, who they visit tomorrow.
He revealed: “My wife asked me for a goal for Valentine’s Day.
“It was the first time she had asked. I asked what she wanted for a present and she said, ‘I need a goal’.
“It was for her, she was at the game. It was special.”
Kayal, who earned man-of-the-match honours, has been carrying a groin injury while driving Albion on.
Assistant manager Colin Calderwood told The Argus: “He’s got a niggling injury. He’s got fairly chunky legs! It’s in and around that area.
“In some games when it flares up it really does hinder him, so there’s a bit of management going on with him and one or two other players.”
