🔥 Aston Villa pulled off an impressive 1-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday evening at Villa Park, as part of Matchweek 9 of the 2025-2026 Premier League season.
The match’s only goal came in the 19th minute through Matty Cash, who fired a powerful shot that caught goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma off guard, handing the hosts a crucial win and maintaining their strong home record against top teams.
Egyptian international Omar Marmoush was introduced as a substitute in the 84th minute, replacing Savinho, and nearly made an instant impact. He assisted Erling Haaland for a goal in the 90th minute, but it was ruled out for offside after a VAR review.
With this result, Aston Villa continued their impressive form at home, further extending Manchester City’s “Villa Park curse”, as Pep Guardiola’s side once again failed to win at the ground. The defeat marked City’s second loss of the season. ⚽💪
