aston villa 0 v west ham 1

 

It's a scorching hot summer afternoon at Villa Park. Everyone's up for the game, buoyed by victory against Everton in our last home outing.

Our opponents today are West Ham, languishing toward the bottom of the table and yet to score a goal. The sun is shining and what can possible go wrong?

It happens in the 74th minute. A deflected shot from Pablo Fornals and the ball nestles in the back of the Villa goal.

Oh dear! It shouldn't have ended this way at all.

The first home game of the season and it's a blisteringly hot day. Our match up against Everton pits two pointless teams against each other. 

 

A Villa victory is secured by two great goals, the first by Danny Ing who takes a touch and unleashes a blistering shot, the second by Emi Buendia following a surging run and a one-two with Ollie Watkins.

 

It's tight at the end though as Lucas Digne concedes an own-goal and Villa fans sit on their hands for what seems an eternity of added time.
