West Ham United vs Aston Villa
SUPER STOP! Cornet races clear on the break down the left, then steps over the ball before thumping it straight at Martinez, who rushes out to narrow the angle at his near post! It's an excellent save from the Villa keeper, but the flag then goes up for offside in any case.

SAVE! From their second corner of the game, Villa almost snatch a winner! Areola is relieved to gather the ball near his right-hand post, when Duran pokes it towards the target following Traore's cross.
West Ham United vs Aston Villa
Benrahma's total of 10 shots is his highest total in a Premier League match to date. However, only his first-half penalty has gone in, and that could prove the difference between West Ham winning or settling for a share of the points.

CLOSE! Benrahma is denied again! A last-gasp block from Young stops his goal-bound strike testing Martinez, and only a West Ham corner results.

After skinning Digne on the right touchline, Bowen zips across a low ball to Fornals just inside the box, but the latter's attempt to shoot first time is badly mishit and is nowhere near the target.
