Full time: Villa 2, Brentford 2
— full time, honours even
AVLAston Villa and Brentford drew 2-2 at full time, having been level 1-1 at half-time after Yarmoliuk's early opener for Brentford was answered by N.Jackson in the 12th minute. McGinn's 77th-minute goal, assisted by Manzambi, put Villa ahead, but Ajer levelled for Brentford two minutes later, assisted by Anthony. Villa edged the shots count 20-14 and held 51.
Kristoffer Ajer levelled the scoreline at 2-2 in the 79th minute, rising to meet a cross from Jaidon Anthony. The equaliser sent Brentford's travelling supporters into raptures and reflected their persistence on the day.
McGinn restored Aston Villa's lead in the 77th minute, with Johan Manzambi providing the assist to make it 2-1 against Brentford. The goal gave Villa a foothold in a game that was finely poised at that stage.
Nicolas Jackson restored Villa's lead at 12 minutes, and the score stands at 1-1 with Brentford still very much in the contest. The finish offered a clear sign of his intent to threaten the Brentford defence from the outset.
Yehor Yarmoliuk put Brentford in front inside the opening ten minutes, giving the visitors a lead that Aston Villa had not yet had time to settle into.
