The new season is coming to an end.

August 17, 2019.

At 7:30 pm, the match between Aston Villa and Bournemouth will start at Villa Park.

This is the second round of the new Premier League season.

It is also Aston Villa's first home game.

So for the enthusiastic Aston Villa fans, this game tonight will attract tens of thousands of fans to watch at home.

In Xiaguo, Dongqiu.com, and Douyin short videos are also ready to broadcast this battle.

An hour before the game started, more than 100,000 fans were looking forward to it in the Douyin live broadcast room.

Fans began to talk about this game tonight on the barrage.

"Bournemouth ranked 14th in the Premier League last season. Although the strength of this team cannot be compared with Tottenham, it is not easy to play against them!"

"The reason why Aston Villa was able to beat Tottenham was mainly due to the defensive counterattack tactics. If they play against Bournemouth, they will definitely take the initiative to attack, which will give Bournemouth a chance to counterattack!"

"It depends on Xia Yuan's condition! As long as Xia Yuan plays stably, it will not be difficult to win!"

"Just do it! Go! Come on Xia Yuan!"

Half an hour before the game started, Aston Villa players and Bournemouth players had returned to the locker room from Villa Park one after another.

In the player's tunnel on the way back, Xia Yuan met his national team opponent, his name is Joshua King.

He is currently the striker of Bournemouth.

"Xia, let's go!"

Although Joshua King is older than Xia Yuan and has more experience in the Norwegian national team,

he still took the initiative to greet Xia Yuan. After all, Xia Yuan has become the star player of Norway.

"Come on, but the winner tonight will be our Villa." Xia Yuan said with a smile: "This is our first home game of the new season. We Villa must not lose."

After hearing Xia Yuan say this, Joshua King responded confidently: "Then you may be disappointed after the game."

Joshua King continued: "Tonight our midfield will focus on interference and blockade you, Xia, you can hardly catch the ball."

Xia Yuan said disapprovingly: "Okay, let me see how capable your Bournemouth midfield is."

Around 7:20.

The starting players of both sides walked from the locker room to the player tunnel one after another. Under the leadership of the referee Atkinson, the starting players came to Villa Park.

When Xia Yuan came to the stadium from the player tunnel, more than 40,000 Aston Villa fans shouted Xia Yuan's name hysterically almost at the same time.

The scene was quite shocking!

Obviously, after the first round of the new season and the game against Tottenham, Xia Yuan's position in the hearts of Aston Villa fans has become No. 1!

No one can shake it.

In fact, for Xia Yuan himself, he never expected that the fans would be so excited, so Xia Yuan waved to the fans in the stands.

In Xiaguo, in the studio of Dongqiu.com, the commentator Zhan Jun has begun to introduce the starting lineups of the two teams.

"Welcome all fans to watch the second round of the 2019-2020 Premier League, Aston Villa will face Bournemouth at home!"

"In the first round, Villa defeated Tottenham 4:3, while Bournemouth drew with Brentford, who was also promoted, at home!"

"Aston Villa, playing at home, deployed a 433 formation."

"The goalkeeper is Heaton."

"The four defenders are still: Elmohammadi, Bjorn Engels, Mings, Neil Taylor."

"Three midfielders: McGinn, Douglas Luis, Xia Yuan. "

"Three forwards: Grealish, Wesley, El Ghazi!"

"Xia Yuan, a 17-year-old Chinese teenager from Norway, got another chance to start tonight. It is worth mentioning that in the last game against Tottenham, Xia Yuan scored two goals and one assist. He is currently the top scorer in the Villa team!"

"And on the away side of Bournemouth, coach Eddie Howe sent out a 442 formation."

"The goalkeeper is the young goalkeeper Ramsdale, who is only 21 years old!"

"The four players on the back line are

Yes: Daniels, Ake, Cook, Adam Smith.

"Four midfielders: Ryan Fraser, Lerma, Billing, Harry Wilson."

"Two forwards: Wilson and Joshua King!"

"The last time the two teams met was in 2016, when Aston Villa lost to Bournemouth at home with a score of 1:2. I hope Villa tonight can maintain the state of the last game against Tottenham. "

Then, the starting players of both sides shook hands and greeted each other, and the battle was about to start.

Aston Villa took the lead.

When referee Martin Atkinson blew the whistle to start the game, striker Wesley immediately handed the ball to midfielder Douglas Luiz.

This summer, the team introduced many Brazilian players in the transfer market, such as Wesley and Douglas Luiz who started tonight.

It is undeniable that Brazil is indeed a football kingdom, and there are really too many talents.

Of course, it has declined slightly in the past two years.

After receiving the ball, Douglas Harris gently flicked his left foot. He easily passed the Bournemouth defender with just this one move.

Then, Douglas Luis continued to advance with the ball.

Since most of Bournemouth's midfielders focused on Xia Yuan at the beginning of the game, this gave Douglas Luis a chance.

Not long after, the new Aston Villa player appeared in Bournemouth's frontcourt with the ball.

When the defender wanted to block the young Brazilian midfielder, Douglas Luis lightly lifted it with his left foot.

The next second, the football under his feet flew into Bournemouth's penalty area.

At this moment, the young Wesley was playing with Bournemouth's central defender was blocking.

The player responsible for defending Wesley was the equally young Dutch central defender Ake.

Although Wesley was 191cm tall and Ake was only 180cm tall, Wesley had no advantage at all in this confrontation.

Ake even used his relatively flexible speed to kick out of the sideline first.

Aston Villa could only reorganize the attack.

This time, the ball came to Xia Yuan's feet.

At the same time, Bournemouth's defensive players had already appeared in front of Xia Yuan.
