Buendia, Watkins and Ashley Young fired three shots together, with McGinn, Luiz and Ramsey forming three midfielders.
After the game began, Villa played more aggressively away from home, with Buendia's cross just 2 minutes into the opening and Watkins' header almost knocking on Krul's goal. In the 17th minute, McGinn's direct pass was blocked by Watkins' right-footed attack into the box. Villa's attack on the road was higher than a wave, and in the 34th minute, Watkins' wonderful pass, Ramsey rushed to the half, he faced 4 defenders calmly dodged the air when the left foot shot from inside the box broke the goal, 0-1!

Since returning to premier league coach Villa, Gerrard led the team to a fourth victory in 6 games, and it can be said that his entry has brought a change to this team, and it will not be easy for any team to get a bargain on them.

From that point of view, Vera's hiring of Gerald was definitely a great operation. With his experience in charge of Rangers and his understanding of the Premier League, Gerrard quickly got started at Villa and was on the right track. The British media believes that Gerrard was born to be a coach, and in time, the Liverpool legend has the opportunity to grow into a great manager, and Reds fans are looking forward to the day when he will really come home.
