Half-time
Goalless at Villa Park. Manchester City haven’t been their slick, clinical and fluid selves but that’s down to Aston Villa’s persistence to keep them off the ball in the centre of the pitch.
The home side have had a few moments of excitement but for the main part they’ve focused on keeping City quiet. So far it’s working.
