The ball was blocked, but the ball was blocked.

Although Aston Villa's midfielder McGinn had interfered with Richarlison at the first time, McGinn's blocking speed was a little slow.

Brazilian striker Richarlison had already made a shot.

Suddenly.

The football quickly turned to Aston Villa's goal.

At the critical moment, central defender Mings stretched his foot to complete the block, but unexpectedly, Richarlison's shot was broken after hitting Mings' right foot.

It just happened.

The refracted football accurately brushed the right goal post and flew into the goal...

At this moment, Aston Villa goalkeeper Heaton looked helpless.

If Mings hadn't stretched out his foot to continue blocking, then according to Heaton's position, he would have been able to catch the ball in all likelihood.

But after the ball was refracted, it flew in the opposite direction.

Heaton could only sigh at the ball!

"Everton scored in less than five minutes!!"

"The goal was scored by Brazilian Richarlison! This is the first goal of the 22-year-old young man this season!"

"Aston Villa is temporarily 0:1 behind Everton at home!"

The commentator Zhan Jun of the ball website was desperate.

He didn't expect Villa to lose the ball at the start, and the 43,000 Aston Villa fans at the scene were equally desperate.

From the start of the game to now, the fans in the stands of Villa Park have been cheering for the team, and when Richarlison scored, the cheers of Villa fans disappeared instantly.

As the team's head coach, Dean Smith's face was clearly nervous.

On the Everton bench, head coach Marco Silva was quite excited and waved his fist excitedly.

After the restart.

Everton's players obviously did not stop their offensive pace.

Only five minutes later, Everton launched an offensive towards the opponent's goal again.

This time, the player who carried the ball forward was replaced by Sigurdsson wearing the No. 10 jersey.

This player is not only the offensive core of Everton, but also the star player of the Icelandic national team, with an excellent passing skill.

In the middle of the midfield.

After Sigurdsson controlled the ball, Aston Villa's midfielder Douglas Luiz appeared in front of the Icelandic player to interfere.

But Sigurdsson was not panicked at all, but used his strong body to successfully knock the latter away.

As a Nordic player, Sigurdsson's body is still quite strong.

The next second.

Sigurdsson chose to advance with the ball again. When the player was about to rush into the top of the Aston Villa penalty area, the man finally appeared!

"Xia Yuan!"

"Xia Yuan appeared in front of Sigurdsson!"

"Norwegian international vs. Icelandic international!"

Xia Yuan was not afraid of physical confrontation with Sigurdsson. He used his shoulder to hit Sigurdsson heavily.

At present, Xia Yuan's confrontation ability has reached 86, which is relatively high in the five major leagues.

And Sigurdsson is about the same level.

Although Xia Yuan did not knock the Icelandic international over directly, he at least slowed down the opponent's pace.

Sigurdsson never expected that the impact of this black-haired and yellow-skinned boy would be so strong, so he quickly passed the ball to Bernard on the left.

Try not to entangle with Xia Yuan.

Just like that, with Xia Yuan's decisive rush, Everton's offensive war shifted to the wing.

As a Brazilian winger, Bernard has a very sharp breakthrough technique.

When the football came to Bernard's feet, he did not stop, but chose to dribble and break through at the first time. As a right-footed player playing on the left, head coach Marco Silva hoped to rely on Bernard's wing breakthrough ability to cut inside.

In fact, Bernard did so.

Aston Villa's full-back Gilbert is no match for Bernard at all.

After the latter made a series of sudden stops and changes of direction, he successfully passed Gilbert with the rhythm.

Instant.

Bernard had already rushed into the penalty area line with the ball. After taking a look at the position of the Aston Villa goalkeeper, he immediately shot with his right foot!

However, at the same time as the player raised his foot to shoot, two Aston Villa midfielders had already

arrived.

They were Douglas Luiz and Xia Yuan.

The two players double-teamed from left to right and stretched their legs to block the ball.

In the end, Aston Villa used their numerical advantage to successfully steal the ball.

The ball came to Xia Yuan's feet.

Moreover, when Xia Yuan controlled the ball, no Everton player continued to interfere around him.

This was a good opportunity for Xia Yuan to pass the ball!

With his excellent vision, Xia Yuan saw the running routes of Grealish and forward Wesley in the frontcourt for the first time.

So, the next second, Xia Yuan made a long pass with his right foot.

Bang!

After the ball quickly crossed half of the field, it landed accurately in front of forward Wesley.

It is worth mentioning that when Wesley received the ball, only Everton goalkeeper Pickford was left in front of him!

In other words, Xia Yuan's long pass directly penetrated the entire Everton defense line.

Let Wesley get the opportunity to face the goalkeeper directly!

"One-on-one shot!"

"Xia Yuan's long pass successfully bypassed the head of Everton's central defender, and Wesley's running position was just right!"

"Shoot!"

"The ball went in!"

"Because the distance was too close, Everton's goalkeeper Pickford had no way to make a save!"

"One to one! Aston Villa equalized the score! This is Xia Yuan's third assist this season!"

When Aston Villa equalized the score, the commentator Zhan Jun's voice became loud again.

The commentator sitting opposite Zhan Jun, Zhang Lu, also commented excitedly: "Hey, Xia Yuan's pass is really good. Everton's players obviously didn't expect Xia Yuan's long pass to directly tear through the defense!"

As Zhang Lu said, all Everton players on the field were stunned when they saw Wesley receiving Xia Yuan's long pass!

"Ah?"

"How can this kid's long pass be so accurate?"

"How is this possible?"

On the Everton bench, head coach Marco Silva's eyes were full of despair and shock.

In the stands of Villa Park, 43,000 Aston Villa fans were full of fighting spirit again, singing the team song "Hi-ho Aston Villa" hysterically!

The pressure immediately came to Everton players.

After the restart, head coach Marco Silva also specifically asked midfielder Schneiderlin to focus on Xia Yuan. He would never allow the team to make such a mistake again!
