The ball was thrown into the air, and the ball was thrown into the air.

At this moment, Grealish, who was dribbling on the left side, had already seen Xia Yuan rushing into Everton's penalty area at a speed of 100 meters.

As a good friend of Xia Yuan, Grealish naturally knew how good Xia Yuan's header ability was.

When he saw Xia Yuan had rushed into the penalty area, he immediately completed the cross with his right foot.

As the owner of Aston Villa's No. 10 jersey, Grealish's footwork is still very sharp. With a cross, the football went straight to the front point!

Grealish and Xia Yuan still have a certain tacit understanding.

Grealish's pass landed at the same point as Xia Yuan's running position. When the ball flew to the front point, Xia Yuan had already rushed there!

Everton's central defender Mina was marking Wesley at this time. The defensive player responsible for defending Xia Yuan was another Everton central defender, Michael Keane. He was also 191cm tall!

Quite tall!

However, Grealish's pass this time was not a high ball, but a low ball.

This made Michael Keane quite uncomfortable.

Xia Yuan made a direct leaning forward and heading at the front post!

Bang!

He successfully completed a header before Michael Keane.

The football quickly turned into the goal.

Although Everton's goalkeeper Pickford was very focused, he couldn't resist Xia Yuan's header speed. In the end, the football still rubbed Pickford's fingertips and flew into the goal.

2-1!

Aston Villa, playing at home, successfully overtook the score!

"Xia Yuan!!"

"Header overtook the score!"

"This is Xia Yuan's 4th goal in the Premier League this season! He is in great shape!"

After scoring the goal, Xia Yuan rushed into the corner flag area and made his signature left hook celebration.

In the stands of Villa Park, 43,000 Aston Villa fans shouted Xia Yuan's name in unison!

It is undeniable that at this moment, Xia Yuan became a hero in the hearts of all Aston Villa fans!

Grealish, McGinn and other teammates also rushed to Xia Yuan and celebrated with him.

The score of 2-1 put the pressure of the game on Everton players.

The expression on the face of head coach Marco Silva showed a trace of collapse and despair.

There were only 6 minutes left before the end of the first half, and there was not much time left for Everton to score.

After the kick-off, coach Dean Smith immediately made tactical adjustments and gave instructions to the Villa players on the field, requiring the offensive players to return to the backcourt to defend.

For Aston Villa, the most important task at present is to keep the score of 2-1 until the end of the first half.

Of course, this is definitely not an easy task.

In the last six minutes, Everton's players immediately launched a crazy attack on Everton's goal.

Bernard, Sigurdsson, Richarlison and other players all got the chance to shoot continuously in this short period of time.

It's a pity.

The luck of these Everton offensive players was a little worse.

All the shots were saved by Aston Villa's goalkeeper Villa.

When the referee Oliver blew the whistle to end the first half, the score between the two teams was still 2:1.

Aston Villa, playing at home, temporarily took a one-goal lead.

In fact, looking at the first half of the game alone, Dean Smith was very satisfied with the performance of his disciples.

After all, Everton can be regarded as a strong team in the Premier League. In the away team's locker room, coach Marco Silva was furious at the first time!

He absolutely does not allow his team to lose to a relegation team away from home.

During the fifteen-minute halftime break, Marco Silva has been emphasizing one thing, that is, attack!

He requires every Everton player to play more actively and openly in the second half of the game.

At present, Everton, as the lagging party, has no way out!

We must do our best to attack!

After the start of the second half,

Everton did not waste time talking to Aston Villa, and midfielder Andre Gomes immediately rushed towards the opponent's goal with the ball!

McKin, Douglas

The reaction speed of players such as S. Luis was also very fast.

He rushed to Andre Gomes in front of him and double-teamed him. In addition, Xia Yuan also chased Andre Gomes from behind.

For a while, three Villa players appeared around the core of Everton's midfield attack to interfere.

Andre Gomes is not Iniesta. He has no way to break through the interference of multiple defensive players in a short period of time.

So, Andre Gomes has only one way to choose.

He passed the ball with his right foot.

Passed the ball directly into the penalty area of ​​​​Aston Villa.

However, Villa's central defenders are very focused, especially Mings!

Mings is also a tall central defender, 196cm tall! To be honest, this height is outstanding in football games!

And the Everton striker Calvert Lewin, who is facing Mings, is only 186cm tall.

In fact, Calvert Lewin's height is enough for the striker position, but compared to Mings's height of 196cm, Calvert Lewin has no advantage at all.

When Andre Gomes kicked the ball into Aston Villa's penalty area, Mings easily headed the ball away.

Judging from the current state of Everton's players, it is almost impossible to threaten Aston Villa's goal through crosses from the wing or high crosses.

If Everton wants to equalize the score, it must change its tactics.

Marco Silva is a very experienced head coach, and he quickly found the key to the problem.

But he did not adjust the tactics or make substitutions at the first time, but gave the team ten minutes.

It's just that Coach Marco Silva's trust did not reap rewards.

Aston Villa's iron bucket formation made Everton's offensive players see no offensive opportunities at all.

In the 58th minute, Coach Marco Silva finally made substitutions.

Walcott comes on the pitch, replacing Bernard!

Walcott is a striker known for his speed, and of course, he can play as a winger.

In football games, Walcott's speed is almost the best.

However, in real life, Walcott's speed is not as amazing as in the game because of his injury.

Of course, it is definitely much faster than the average player.
