Villa silence Brighton 2-1, Emery continues positive EPL trend

Aston Villa and their new coach, Unai Emery, managed to continue their positive trend in the Premier League.

Most recently, Unai Emery’s team who had been left behind finally rose to steal a 2-1 victory at Brighton headquarters.

In this match, Danny Ings created two Villa goals, one of which was scored through the penalty spot.

In particular, this goal saw them record their first away win in the Premier League this season.

This victory is also Villa’s second victory since being handled by coach Unai Emery.

Umery came on to replace Steven Gerrard, who was sacked for his poor start to the season.

In this match, SportReviews will also summarize the course of the match between Brighton vs Aston Villa, which is summarized from the official ESPN website.

Hosts Brighton took the lead in the first minute of the first half.

This goal was created thanks to the alertness of midfielder Alexis Mac Allister who intercepted Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez’s pass.

Martinez’s blunder was also put to good use by Allister and then put the ball into the Villa goal.

This goal was also Brighton’s fastest goal during their time in the Premier League.

Nineteen minutes later Ings equalized from a penalty after Lewis Dunk had tackled John McGinn.

Ings’ penalty kick could not be saved by goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.

The striker then put Villa ahead in the 54th minute after Douglas Luiz’s turn to intercept the ball that was directed at Mac Allister outside Brigton’s penalty box.

Luiz then gave the ball to Ings which was successfully converted into Villa’s winner.

Brighton dominated the final period of this game but it’s a shame they often squandered opportunities.

They even had the chance to equalize but Lucas Digne’s foul on Solly March in the Villa penalty box was dismissed by the referee as not a foul.

This victory made Villa rise to 12th in the Premier League standings by packing a total of 18 points from 15 matches.

Meanwhile, host Brighton is in seventh place with 21 points obtained from 14 matches.
