Emiliano Martinez kept a clean sheet for Aston Villa in their 2-0 win vs. Brighton as Emiliano Buendia was an unused substitute and Alexis Mac Allister started the match.
Martinez has now kept seven clean sheets for Aston Villa in the Premier League this season. This was the Argentine’s first time not letting in a goal in a Premier League match since January 22 in a 1-0 win vs. Everton.
Buendia was part of the team but did not play for Aston Villa as he was kept on the bench. The 25 year old has not played an entire 90 minutes since the win against Everton last month.
Alexis Mac Allister started for Brighton and played the entire 90 minutes. He has become a regular starter for Brighton, playing the full match in their last three games and playing the full 90 in seven of their last eight matches.
Messi gets more chances to scoce whenever Mbappe being subbed. Di Maria blew Messi assist but having one of his better game this season with few shots on target.
I think Messi is currently #1 on assist table. His finishing is rusty but his passing vision still second to none.
Messi with another beautiful assist!! He needs to stop trying to dribble in the box, he is getting dispossessed easily. No more than one touch and directly shoot at the goal should be his approach to score, like other strikers do! His super natural dribbling skills are gone and should adapt to normal scoring ways!!
