Events
Match Events
- 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Everton FC and Aston Villa FC is underway.
- 5' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Everton FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
- 8' Amadou Onana has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 8.
- 13' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Amadou Onana made 279 appearances and scored 10 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 18' Ashley Young, a England left-back, has 2 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 23' Aston Villa 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.
- 28' With 0 assists to his name this season, Jarrad Branthwaite is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Aston Villa FC.
- 33' 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.
- 38' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 43' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
- 48' It looks surprising Everton FC does not make any changes. James Tarkowski has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 51' Ollie Watkins doubles the advantage! 0-1 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 52' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the card for Idrissa Gana Gueye.
- 54' Jordan Pickford was booked on 54.
- 59' It is a substitution in Everton FC team. Jack Harrison is replaced by Jesper Lindstrom on 59 minute.
- 64' The energy levels are beginning to show. David Moyes might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 69' 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 Lucas Digne suffering a number of foals already.
- 74' Ezri Konsa has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 3 cards already picked up this season.
- 79' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 79 minutes.
- 81' Another substitution for Aston Villa FC to replace Jacob Ramsey by Emiliano Buendia on 81 minute.
- 83' Ashley Young makes way for Jake O'Brien at the 83 minute mark. A tactical switch from Everton FC.
- 88' The travelling Aston Villa FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for Aston Villa FC players.
