On the field, Aston Villa lost 2-1 on the lawn of Wolverhampton. A goal from Jonny Castro very early in the match (7th) for the locals before the exit of the Frenchman a few minutes later (13th). A change that is expensive since it is Ashley Young, with an own goal, which allows Wolves to make the break shortly after the half-hour mark (36th). Ollie Watkins scored a penalty late in the game (86th) to close the gap. In the standings, Bruno Lage’s men are seventh. Those of Steven Gerrard fell to tenth place.
