Match summary
A quiet draw in London
It was a fairly calm game, with few approaches to the goal and a local team that seemed to be closer to taking the 3 points. Aston Villa were very passive throughout the match, with most of their ball control concentrated in the middle of the pitch. West Ham started strong, both in defense and attack, scoring a goal with a header from Antonio and taking the lead into the second half. However, Aston Villa showed a strong reaction, taking control of the game and achieving the equalizer with a goal from Zaniolo. Both teams recorded 5 shots on goal each, reflecting the lack of intensity in the areas. In the final minutes, the match became back and forth, with the West Ham goalkeeper standing out to prevent more goals against. The match ended in a draw, with controversy including a goal disallowed against West Ham due to a handball, adding to another goal previously disallowed for the same reason.

Analysis of the first half
The game takes place mostly under the dominance of the home team, which generates the most dangerous approaches despite ceding possession of the ball to Aston Villa. Despite having more time on the ball, the visitor is unable to generate greater danger due to West Ham's solid lines, which limit their options to get closer to the rival area. The performance of Dibu Martínez prevented the score from expanding, being key in a clear scoring opportunity. Although West Ham only register 3 shots on goal, they maintain the pressure on the rival defense, while Aston Villa have only been able to make 2 shots, neither of which posed a real threat to the goal.
