Aston Villa continued their impressive surge in the Premier League title race with a 2-1 victory over Manchester United. Morgan Rogers was the standout performer, scoring both goals to secure a tenth consecutive win for Unai Emery’s side across all competitions. Rogers opened the scoring with a curling strike before halftime, though United briefly leveled the score through a clinical finish from Matheus Cunha. Shortly after the break, Rogers struck again, capitalizing on a loose ball to restore the lead and maintain Villa’s position in third place, just three points behind league leaders Arsenal. The defeat for Manchester United was compounded by an injury to captain Bruno Fernandes, who was forced off at halftime with a muscle problem. Under Emery, Villa has turned their home ground into a fortress, achieving seven consecutive league wins for the first time since 1990 and keeping themselves firmly in the hunt for their first top-flight title since 1981.
