1:55am, 17 August 2025【Football】
At 19:30 on August 16, in the first round of the Premier League, Villa played against Newcastle at home. This showdown between the "second-tier tyrants" ended 0-0. Villa's Consa became the first player to be red in the Premier League in the new season.
This is a "quasi-strong dialogue" in the Premier League. Last season, Newcastle ranked 5th in the Premier League and won a Champions League place; Villa ranked 6th with a goal difference and missed the Champions League qualification. In this game, Villa lined up the attack lines of Watkins, Rogers, Tilemans and McKinn, while Newcastle was the trident of Elanga, Gordon and Barnes. Isaac was absent from the training.
Newcastle took the lead in the first half, and in just 3 minutes of the game, Iranga's right-footed shot was saved by goalkeeper Bizzo. Villa, coached by Emery, seems to be still on vacation, with 0 shots in the first half, weak offense and defense, unable to organize effective offense. In the first half, the two teams 0-0 against each other. Newcastle performed slightly better, completing 8 shots in the first 35 minutes, but the quality of the shots was poor. In the last 10 minutes of the half, both sides were not good.
The change of sides and then fought again. In the 65th minute, Newcastle counterattacked, Ilanga passed the ball, Gordon dribbled the ball, and it was about to form a single shot. Villa central defender Consa struggled to catch up, and in desperation, pulled Gordon's hair. Consa, who was the last player on the defense line, made a foul and was sent off with a red card! Consa, 27, became the first player to be red in the Premier League in the 2025-26 season. 53-year-old Villa coach Emme showed a difficult look inside, his expression full of helplessness. Midfielder Kamala retreated to play a guest role in the central defender, Villa changed to 441, and Watkins was on the front line. In the 66th minute, Newcastle replaced Elanga with Murphy. Newcastle, which has the advantage in numbers, continued to launch a fierce attack, but achieved little success. Villa also made adjustments. In the 83rd minute, Emery made his first substitution, and Mullen appeared to replace McKinder, continuing to maintain the offensive pressure on the right wing.
Faced with Villa's 441 intensive defensive play, Newcastle doesn't have many ways. Barnes tried to break through on the left wing many times, but Villa's right back Cash had a solid defense. Eddie Howe dispatched troops and in the 88th minute, Ausura replaced Barnes.
Injury time 6 minutes, Newcastle launched its final attack. In the 91st minute, Gordon tried a long shot, and Bizzo easily confiscated the ball. In the last moment, Villa's team united as one, Kamala struggled to block Guimara's straight pass, Mins headed the ball to Osura's powerful shot, Watkins struggled to protect the ball, the scene was quite tragic. In the end, Villa held 0-0, and both sides scored 1 point.
