Aston Villa player ratings vs Newcastle: Victor Lindelof crucial to 1-0 win
Story updated
The story in brief
29-second readAfter hitting Fenerbahce for six on Wednesday, Villa produced more of a defensive performance against Newcastle United and sealed a crucial 1–0 win, their second victory of the Premier League season.
Villa’s goalkeeper did not have much to do, but made a crucial save in denying Sven Botman’s powerful strike, getting enough on it using only his fingertips to push it past the post.
Suzuki commanded his box well throughout and helped start some attacks with his trademark passing ability. Cash deserves this rating purely for the tackle he made on William Osula to thwart a Newcastle counter-attack and help keep the game at 1-0.
