Lost in the penalty shootout! Emery was hit again, trapped in the mud, and it was too bad to win 5 games

A match in the third round of the British League Cup began, with Aston Villa challenging Brentford as a guest. Aston Villa has a very bad record in the league this season. He has not won any of the first four league games. What’s even more bizarre is that he scored 0 goals in four games, and he is the only team in the Premier League that has not scored goals. Such a record put Emery in an extremely difficult situation. This time when he came to the British League Cup, Aston Villa faced Brentford. As a result, although Aston Villa finally scored a goal, he lost and was eliminated!

Aston Villa rotated in this game and lined up 4231 formation. Mullen was in the front. The offensive combination of Sancho, Elliot and Gaisan attacked together. Bogard and McKind form a double midfielder. Mattson, Paul Torres, Consa and Cash started with four defenders. Bizo serves as the starting goalkeeper. Watkins and Morgan Rogers were on standby on the bench.

Aston Villa scored the first goal in this game. Relying on the opportunity to get a ball intercepted in the frontcourt, Elliot scored a long shot. This is Aston Villa's first goal this season, it's not easy! Afterwards, Aston Villa had the chance to expand the score, but unfortunately Sancho's shot hit the post. Brentford equalized in the 57th minute. Allen Hickey volleyed and the ball was in a dead corner, and the goalkeeper did not react at all.

Play 1-1 in regular time and enter the penalty shootout. In the penalty shootout, both McKinn and Cash's penalty kicks were saved by Vardi Marsson. All four Brentford were fined. In the end, Aston Villa lost to Brentford with a total score of 3-5 and was eliminated, and failed to win in five games in all competitions. Emery was in an extremely bad situation, and both fronts were disappointing.

Aston Villa had a 54% possession rate in this game, with 12 shots, 6 shots on the right side, and scored 1 goal. Brentford scored 10 shots and three shots, and scored 1 goal. Aston Villa failed to turn the advantage into a victory and eventually fell into a penalty shootout. It was a pity. Brentford goalkeeper Vardy Malsson was awarded the title in one game. He made 5 saves and saved 2 penalty kicks in the penalty shootout, which was the biggest contributor to Brentford's victory.
