www.centrebet.com.au – After two major defeats against Newcastle and Middlesbrough, Aston Villa finally pulled up their socks, and scored a good 2 – 0 against Arsenal.
The previous games in the Premier League have saw Arsenal’s victory over Manchester United, but yet, losing to Aston Villa. This is probably a huge blow to the entire team. The last 20 minutes saw the 2 goals that many of Villa’s supporters were highly anticipating for. The first crucial goal came as it saw Gael Clichy score with the help of Ashley Young making it a perfect situation ‘conducive’ for a goal. The second goal came by not too long at the 80mins benchmark by Gabriel Agbonlahor.
What were frustrating about this game were the many missed opportunities that Villa’s players had, and yet failed to follow through. The performance of Aston Villa is considered highly remarkable, but more polish is needed as, the attempted attacks on the opposition goal post were far too many to narrow the attacks down to just allow 2 goals through. This victory means that Villa is now able to challenge for the top four positions.
On the other side, Arsenal’s earlier victory against Manchester United seemed to be totally wiped off due to the defeat. For a team that was the hot favorites, this is simply unbearable to supporters and the players themselves. A good defense played by Arsenal is noted, as many saves were made from the opposition team. However, more mental concentration on the game was required to make this game a walk through, and Arsenal was simply not up to it.
