Unai Emery’s Aston Villa reached the break on a streak

Aston Villa, managed by Unai Emery, He arrived this Sunday in the Premier break for the Qatar 2022 World Cup with a victory over Brighton at The Amex (1-2). The goalkeeper of Cartagena Robert Sánchez, called up by Luis Enrique for the World Cup, could not avoid defeat. After beating Manchester United 3-1 on his debut as Villa manager in the English championship, Emery secured his second straight win at the tournament, boosted by a Danny Ings double. United did beat Birmingham in the round of 32 of the Carabao Cup (4-2).

40 seconds into this intense match Brighton advanced thanks to Alexis MacAllister, that he will participate in the World Cup with Argentina and that he took advantage of a bad start by Dibu Martínez, goalkeeper of the albiceleste team, and that there was also a mistake by Douglas Luiz, to advance his team. The negative note at the start of the match for Brighton was injury to former Liverpool midfielder Adam Lallanawho had to retire in the 4th minute.

But Brighton were left unable to secure what would have been their third consecutive Premier League victory. Villa is back thanks to Danny Ings’ double, who missed the appointment with a goal at The Amex and there are 5 in the Premier.

Ings, author of 4 goals in his last 4 games, he leveled the score in the 2nd minute by converting Lewis Dunk’s penalty to John McGinn. Danny Ings himself sealed his brace on 54′ minutes, when Emiliano Buendia’s header hit the post at the first attempt but as play resumed it was Ings himself who scored, with a deflection off Levi Colwill, who was making his debut as a starter.

Brighton had a chance to tie the game, it was them that Colwill could not take advantage of. Tyrone Mings and the rest of Unai Emery’s defense need to do something.

But the ‘villains’ did not miss the victory. There was a controversial play, a possible penalty for Lucas Digne in Solly March, but VAR determined that there was no maximum penalty. Decision that did not end the doubts. In any case, Unai Emery’s team came into the break installed in a comfortable 12th place and Brighton, 7th, missed the chance to move up again at Liverpool, who recovered to 6th place.
