Aston Villa 2-4 Arsenal HIgh Light Goal Video | Match Stats

Aston Villa 2-4 Arsenal HIgh Light Goal Video | Match Stats. Villa didn’t defend particularly well against Arsenal – the first goal, for example, came from a terrible mix-up between two of their back four – and neither did they counter successfully in the first half. How they managed to score two goals in this game is somewhat of a mystery considering how little creativity they showed in open play, but then Arsenal have conceded seven goals in a week despite dominating the majority of all three matches.
That aside, Arsenal were impressive in this fixture. They passed the ball well, they got plenty of shots on goal, and they pressed Villa in midfield during the second half, making it difficult for the home side to get the ball forward from defence. They take top spot for the first time this season.
