In a tightly contested match, Aston Villa secured victory through a first-half goal from Matty Cash, who found the net in the 18th minute. Despite Manchester City dominating possession with 53%, they were unable to convert their control into goals. Villa, playing at home, held firm defensively and capitalized on their chances, ending the match with a narrow but deserved win.
The game saw a flurry of yellow cards, with five Manchester City players booked, including Phil Foden, Nicolas Gonzalez, Tijani Reijnders, and Savinho. Aston Villa’s Boubacar Kamara also received a caution late in the second half. The result reflects a dip in form for City, who had previously enjoyed a strong run of wins but now face questions about consistency.
This defeat leaves Manchester City with a record of five wins and three losses in the league so far, while Aston Villa improves to four wins and two losses. The loss could have implications for City’s position in the standings as they aim to maintain momentum in the title race.
