Facing Fulham, who have not performed well this season, Villa are extremely confident up and down.

However, the results were unexpected.

Villa, at home to Fulham, lost.

As soon as the game kicked off, Fulham were firmly in control of their rhythm.

In the 21st minute, Dejaga made a direct pass, and the unmarked Sidwell scored from close range on the left side of the penalty area.

Jose was careless and forgot to remind his teammates about Sidwell's defense.

Falling behind early, but it's not over yet.

In the 30th minute, Fulham, who had a one-goal lead, were awarded a penalty.

Kakannicklić broke down the flank and was brought to the ground by Bacuna as soon as he stepped into the box.

The referee did not hesitate to award a penalty.

Manchester United veteran Dimitar Berbatov takes the penalty.

Without using stunts, José judged the right direction and touched the ball.

However, Berbatov's penalty was scored.

José was still too young after all.

Because he is young, he is overconfident.

After losing this game, Jose knew that he still had a lot to grow.

No one can become a superstar at the age of 18, not even Melo, who at Jose's age, is simply showing unparalleled talent.

The defeat to Fulham ended Villa's 11-game unbeaten run in the league and 13 in all competitions.

Combined with a Europa League defeat to St. Gallen shortly after, Villa tasted two defeats in a row.

If it were the previous Villa, two consecutive defeats would be nothing.

But since Jose came into the starting line-up, the Villa side have become accustomed to keeping the draw and winning.

After two consecutive defeats, Villa will host the Red Devils on 15 December.

Manchester United are looking forward to this game.

They will be hoping for a morale boost from Villa, who have been winless in four games before that.

As for Villa, there are clouds, and the main central defender Vlar is out due to injury, and the loss to Villa's backline is not insignificant.

At half past 2 p.m. local time, Villa Park Stadium, the sky was slightly raining at this time, and the temperature was between 10~12 degrees.

The wet and cold weather affected the players on both sides to varying degrees.

However, thanks to the development of science and technology, although other players' sneakers and underwear are not stuffed systematically, they can still ensure that some parts of the body are dry in the face of slight rain.

The starting line-ups for both sides were finally announced before the start of the game.

For Villa, Paul Lambert fielded a Christmas tree formation of 4321.

Goalkeeper: Jose.

Defenders: Luna, Nathan Baker, Clark, Lowton.

Midfielders: Silla, Westwood, Ahmadi.

Wingers: Abonlaho, Albrighton.

Center: Benteke.

Weimann, Kozak and Bakuna were on the bench.

For Manchester United, David Moyes fielded a 442 formation.

Goalkeeper: David De Gea.

Defenders: Alas, Evans, Phil Jones, Rafael.

Midfielders: Januzaj, Ryan Giggs, Cleverley, Valencia.

Forwards: Welbeck, Wayne Rooney.

Rooney is more often withdrawn, acting as a shadow striker.

There are many fans who follow this game, and the barrage in the live chat room is flying all over the sky.

Don't call out.

"Come on, Manchester United."

"Come on, ducks."

"Rooney, come on."

"Come on, Jose." Wait a minute.

Villa kick off first.

At this time, the stands of Manchester United fans suddenly erupted in enthusiastic applause, which turned out to be applause for Wayne Rooney's 500th appearance for Manchester United.

For Rooney, Jose is admired, after all, the other party is a Premier League senior.

As for the rumors from the outside world, Lord Fu sent Ronaldo away for him, Jose didn't believe a word, Jose preferred to believe that it was Real Madrid who gave enough money.

Benteke tees off and passes straight to Baker, who in turn passes straight back to Jose.

Ever since Jose's poor possession spread in the Premier League, the major strikers have chosen to do one thing against Villa.

That is, to press Jose with the ball.

Wayne Rooney today is no exception.

What do Jose don't know what these striker players think?

So whenever a player approaches him, Jose will pass the ball out as soon as possible.

With God's perspective, it is not difficult to find a safe route to the ball.

When Rooney was three meters away from Jose, Jose passed.

It was passed directly to Lorton.

Lowton moves forward with the ball.

Two minutes later, the ball finally reached Benteke's feet.

Outside the penalty area, Benteke couldn't find a break and a shot angle.

In desperation, he had to choose to pass to Ahmadi beside him.

Ahmadi shoots directly from distance.

There is no threat to De Gea at all.

De Gea is indeed not good at blocking the shooting lane, but his saving ability in front of goal is definitely top in the world.

Even compared to Jose, it's just a little bit worse.

The game continues.

Manchester United's counter-attack also failed to threaten Jose.

In the first fifteen minutes, it was Villa who had more chances on goal.

It's a pity that De Gea performed very bravely today, and Albrighton's two shots were miraculously won by De Gea.

In the blink of an eye, the game had come to the tenth minute.

Rafael picked up the ball on the wing of Villa's half.

Silas and Luna scrambled to intercept him.

However, Rafael was extremely fast and shook off Villa's players in an instant.

Near the corner flag on the bottom line, Rafael made a long pass to the middle of the penalty area.

From 10 yards out, in the crowd, Januzaj leaped high and smashed the ball into the bottom left corner of the goal with his head.

Jose struggled to pounce on the left side of the goal.

Jose, however, pounced.

Januzaj's header hit the left-hand post and bounced quickly back in front of goal.

On the right-hand edge of the six-yard box, Welbeck is tangling with Nathan Baker.

It's just that Baker has his back to the goal, while Welbeck is facing the goal.

There is no need to guess, in the face of the rebounding ball, Welbeck stabbed the empty goal for the first time.

The ball flew quickly towards the bottom right corner of the goal.

At this point, José was just about to get up from the ground.

Under normal circumstances, Jose would not have been able to save Welbeck's follow-up shot again.

"Ah~" Villa fans have covered their faces.

"Time and space pause, salted fish turn over, fish leap over the dragon gate."

In the heat of the day, José unthinkingly unexpectedly unplugged the first stunt of the game.

"How is that possible?" In the blink of an eye, the shocked ones who covered their faces became Manchester United fans.

With incredible speed, Jose quickly got up from the ground and then struggled to the right side of the goal at the same time.

On the goal line, Jose single-handedly blocked Welbeck's follow-up shot out of the six-yard box.

Jose saved the ball and was cleared by Baker at the first time.

Vera escaped.

"José, you are our patron saint." Loud singing rang out in the Villa fans' stands.

Live chat room.

"Jose 666"

"Too strong, Jose too strong."

"Poor Black Shell, I've met the perverted Jose."

"Such a good goalkeeper, I can't believe that he was rejected by Sandezi."
