Villa beat City 1-0 and surpasses them in the table of an English League that averages 3.2 goals per game, more than ever since 1965.

Manchester City lost third place in the Premier League and extended a streak of games without winning to four by losing by the slightest difference this Wednesday, December 6, against Aston Villa in a game on Matchday 15 of the English League played in the Villa Park pitch.

Aston Villa dominated and managed to neutralize the Citizens who, although they had greater control of the ball, could not reflect it on the scoreboard, while the locals took advantage of each of their approaches until they found the reward of a goal through Leon Bailey.


The Jamaican striker drove the ball to the crescent and took off a defender before shooting into the goal of Ederson who could not react after a teammate deflected the ball away from his position to score the winning goal for the 74 minutes.


The team led by Pep Guardiola had drawn its last three Premier League games against Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham and with this defeat it falls to fourth position, while Aston Villa ends a 10-year streak in which it had not been able to beat City.

Aston Villa surprises City


Villa's victory puts Emery's team third with 32 points and confirms City's biggest crisis of results in more than seven years, four consecutive games without winning, fourth with 30 points, six behind Arsenal. Meanwhile, Liverpool, with 34 points, won in Sheffield with goals from Virgil van Dijk and Dominik Szoboszlai.
