Events

Match Events

  • 0' Both captains have shaken hands and the referee is ready. We are underway at Villa Park!
  • 5' Ibrahima Diallo has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 10' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Samuel Edozie made 452 appearances and scored 11 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 15' It looks like no one’s ball. Southampton FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 20' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 25' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
  • 30' Supporters expect more eagerness from Moussa Djenepo, as he is very good at scoring at Villa Park with 0 goals in the last 0 games.
  • 35' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
  • 40' Over 40 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 41' Jacob Ramsey does the damage! The net is bulging and Aston Villa FC surge ahead!
  • 44' Boubacar Kamara makes way for Douglas Luiz at the 44 minute mark. A tactical switch from Aston Villa FC.
  • 45' Douglas Luiz is ready to make an impact after coming on for Boubacar Kamara at the 45 minute mark.
  • 45' Aston Villa FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 46' Juan Larios gets the nod from Southampton FC. He replaces Romain Perraud and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 51' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 56' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
  • 58' It’s a booking for Aston Villa FC player. Jacob Ramsey gets a Yellow card.
  • 63' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Che Adams suffering a number of foals already.
  • 67' Fresh legs for Aston Villa FC! Leander Dendoncker comes on to replace Jacob Ramsey.
  • 71' Stuart Armstrong is replacing Adam Armstrong for the Southampton FC side.
  • 72' Stuart Armstrong gets the nod from Southampton FC. He replaces Adam Armstrong and will look to change the dynamic.
  • 77' The tempo has dropped considerably in the last few minutes. Ralph Hasenhuttl will be considering his options from the bench.
  • 79' Southampton FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Samuel Edozie is hanging Mohamed Elyounoussi on the field on 79 minute.
  • 82' Southampton FC player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 84' Fresh legs for Aston Villa FC! Danny Ings comes on to replace Philippe Coutinho.
  • 89' The energy levels are beginning to show. Steven Gerrard might look to freshen things up shortly.
  • 90' Ashley Young catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 90.
  • The referee blows the final whistle. Sensational lose for Southampton FC.
