On Monday evening, the nineteenth round of the English Premier League championship came to an end.
At Villa Park stadium, the hosts Aston Villa were forced to concede to the superiority of Arsenal players who regained the position of league leaders.
At the beginning of the match, the "Gunners" took the initiative and did not let go of it throughout the first half.
Arsene Wenger's team managed to prove their superiority in the second half when Jack Wilshere led the team forward after a pass from Nacho Monreal.
Shortly after, the same J. Wilshere made a great pass to Olivier Giroud, who scored a goal despite the opposition of two defenders.
In the second half, the hosts attacked more and needed to score two goals to at least earn a point in this match.
They managed to soften the result in the 76th minute after Santi Cazorla's mistake at the edge of the field. Christian Benteke scored with his head.
During the remaining time, Wojciech Szczesny's goal was under threat several times, but the "Gunners" successfully defended and won three points, allowing them to regain the first place in the standings.
