Next it was Villa's turn to put pressure on Morgan Rogers. It's just that his efforts could be thwarted by defender Jurrien Timber. Meanwhile,ulan Watkins' shot was brilliantly thwarted by goalkeeper David Raya.
Unai Emery's troops, who failed to convert a number of opportunities, finally broke the deadlock when defender Cash beat Raya in the 36th minute.
Starting from Pau Torres' cross which Timber managed to anticipate which then blocked him. Only the ball fell at the feet of Cash which then fired hard at the goal.
Left behind 1-0, Arsenal are increasing pressure. However, their efforts were fruitless. Meanwhile, The Villans also failed to add more goals so that the score lasted until the first half was over.
Entering the second half, Arsenal took the initiative to attack. The forward Leandro Trossard threatened Martinez's goal in the first minute.
However, Trossard did not take long to break into Villa's goal. In the 52nd minute, the Belgian national team striker successfully equalized the score. This was Trossard's 50th goal during his career in the Premier League.
A 1-1 draw and both teams took turns again. When the match was expected to end in a draw, Villa made a surprise after Buendia, who finished the Boubacar Kamara assist, managed to break into Arsenal's goal.
A dramatic goal was created because Buendia did it when the game entered the 90+5 minute.
Not long after, the match ended with a 2-1 Villa advantage. This is Villa's seventh win in various competitions.
