Aston Villa vs Arsenal live updates: Matty Cash goal puts hosts ahead in Premier League match – The Athletic

40’ Aston Villa 1-0 Arsenal

Matty… Cashes in.

Eberechi Eze napping at the back post. He glanced at Matty Cash before the cross came in and was in the right position initially.

But he switched off, ball-watching, as an Arsenal team-mate flicked it on.

By the time the ball reached Cash, Eze cried out, realising his mistake.

He was right to be worried as Cash finished it with a clean, thumping strike.

Arsenal will have to come from behind if they are to win today.
