Events

Match Events

  • 0' Three points are at stake. Aston Villa FC host West Ham United FC — let the battle begin!
  • 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Lucas Paqueta made 385 appearances and scored 71 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 10' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Aston Villa FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
  • 15' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 20' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
  • 25' West Ham United FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 30' What a moment for Douglas Luiz! That strike on 30 puts his side firmly in control.
  • 35' It looks like no one’s ball. Aston Villa FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
  • 40' Over 40 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
  • 45' 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 Matty Cash suffering a number of foals already.
  • 50' A quiet spell here at Villa Park. Aston Villa FC seem content sitting deep and soaking up pressure.
  • 52' Douglas Luiz has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 52 minutes.
  • 54' Emerson has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a Yellow card on 54.
  • 56' Clinical. Composed. Brilliant. Jarrod Bowen makes it 2-1.
  • 61' Emerson needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 30 Yellow cards this season.
  • 66' named a 4-4-2 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
  • 67' Mohammed Kudus has so much to prove this time. He replaces Tomas Soucek on 67 minute.
  • 72' Emiliano Martinez has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 28 cards already picked up this season.
  • 74' What a strike from Ollie Watkins! The score is 3-1.
  • 76' Aston Villa FC manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Leon Bailey is hanging Nicolo Zaniolo on the field on 76 minute.
  • 81' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
  • 85' Moussa Diaby makes way for Youri Tielemans at the 85 minute mark. A tactical switch from Aston Villa FC.
  • 86' Time for substitution for West Ham United FC. Lucas Paqueta is replaced by Danny Ings.
  • 89' A goal from the Jamaica international Leon Bailey! He fires home on 89 to make it 4-1!
  • 90' Pablo Fornals is replacing Michail Antonio for the West Ham United FC side.
  • It finishes all square. Aston Villa FC and West Ham United FC share the spoils 4-1.
