A Villa vs West Ham
Premier League
8:00pm Monday 16th September
Villa Park
(Att: 42010)
West Ham survived Arthur Masuaku’s dismissal to extend their unbeaten streak from the Premier League .
The Hammers needed to browse the 23 minutes with a guy down after referee Mike Dean issued Masuaku on Ahmed Elmohamady that did not appear to make contact using another yellow for a battle.
Villa may well have been decreased to 10 or nine guys when his head drove to the surface of defender Tyrone Mings.
But as the Hammers battled their way to a point that sees Villa climb from the relegation zone and moves them up Dean Smith’s side didn’t take advantage of the advantage and the reprieve.
Villa’s bid to improve their dismal record of just one win in 16 Premier League matches on a Monday almost got off to the perfect beginning when Jack Grealish turned into West Ham land and picked out Wesley using a cherry of a cross into the near post, however the hosts’ album signing led over on 13 minutes when it seemed easier to score.
It was the turn of Sebastian Haller to go close because the Hammers’ scorer stole a march on Mings to get on the conclusion of Felipe Anderson’s cross from the left, however, he would just steer a header wide.
The strain on the Villa defence caused tempers to flare on 35 minutes when El and Mings Ghazi were involved in a heated exchange that saw the latter push against his head into his team-mate’s face.
Both players lived a VAR review and, three minutes later, Mark Noble was lucky to be relegated to his toes and not after visiting earth seeking a penalty without contact shown a yellow by Dean.
Villa drew a line since El Ghazi wrapped the ball however his crisp drive from the edge of the area drew a fine save from Lukasz Fabianski.
McGinn was at it again in the second half, fizzing a very minimal drive inches wide of Fabianski’s left wing pole and Declan Rice watched as both sides saw an opportunity a fierce drive blocked.
And Villa’s odds received a hike on 67 minutes when Masuaku was seeking to get a visit on Elmohamady and given his marching orders though replays showed contact had been minimal.
But off the sending had the contrary effect, invigorating West Ham because they produced a spirited display with 10 men in a pulsating finale.
Grealish had the opportunity to win it with two minutes remaining however, at full stretch, he was not able to direct a volley on goal from seven yards while West Ham could have been granted the opportunity to win the match had Mings’ barge on Ryan Fredericks from the region been penalized.
Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish told Sky Sports:”"It is all purses. Heat of the moment, when you are on the market. After we got into half-time, it was all put to bed. Shake hands. We all said that can’t be happening out on the pitch.”
Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish told Sky Sports:”I have just been back in the changing room and the lads are devastated. It feels somewhat like a reduction when they went down to ten men. In the first half I believe we had the better chances. Everybody tries to do a little too much. When they went down to 10 men we have worse I think. I gave away too many passes. We attempted to force things.”
