- 90'+4'That's all from us, we'll see you for the next Premier League fixture. For now though, it's goodbye.
- 90'+4'A first win in six sees Villa rise on place to 15th in the table, but that's a massive lift of pressure off the shoulders of Steven Gerrard and his players. Brighton drop to eighth, and should they remain unable to convert scoring chances like they were in this match, then they're destined to slip further as the season hots up.
- 90'+4'Watkins and Mings will deservedly grab the headlines for their goals, but the work of Matt Targett in that game cannot be understated. Three key passes, as well as leading the way in terms of good crosses, tackles and touches, meant that the reliable Villa left-back was able to play a key role in creating opportunities for his side, and did very well to handle Tariq Lamptey down the right for Brighton.
- 90'+4'Well, how about that for an end to the game? Nip and tuck for the vast majority of the first 80 minutes, the game exploded into life as Watkins fired in the opener for Villa! If that wasn't the straw that broke the camel's back for Brighton, then the quick-fire second from Mings, coming only five minutes later, certainly was!!! Brighton will be disappointed that they didn't capitalise on the chances they created in the earlier periods of the game, but Villa will be delighted with a first win in six games, as the Gerrard era gets underway with three points!
- 90'+4'FULL-TIME: ASTON VILLA 2-0 BRIGHTON.
- 90'+4'Cash scythes down March and is booked, in what will likely be the last action of this match.

Yellow card2 - Matthew CashCash scythes down March and is booked, in what will likely be the last action of this match. - 90'+3'Yellow card10 - Alexis Mac AllisterKonsa is also booked for his part in the argument, but Villa won't care as they close in on three all-important points.
- 90'+3'Yellow card4 - Ezri KonsaMac Allister cuts inside and has two shots blocked, but on the second his shooting leg follows through and hits Young in the knee. He's booked for the incident, and it's clear to tell how frustrated Brighton are with how this game has turned against them.
- 89'Goal5 - Tyrone MingsGoal! Aston Villa 2, Brighton and Hove Albion 0. Tyrone Mings (Aston Villa) right footed shot from the right side of the box to the high centre of the goal following a corner.
- 88'Substitution - In10 - Alexis Mac AllisterSubstitution - Out13 - Pascal GroßGroß has impressed for Brighton, but Alexis Mac Allister's on in his place for the last few minutes of this match.

- 79'Substitution - In9 - Neal MaupaySubstitution - Out2 - Tariq LampteyLamptey is the next to come off for Brighton, and Neal Maupay comes on in a clear showing of attacking intent from Graham Potter.
- 74'Substitution - In18 - Ashley YoungSubstitution - Out10 - EmiBuendia's been frustrated by his attacking performance in this game, and Ashley Young comes on in his place.
- 67'Yellow card4 - Adam WebsterWebster's the next to be booked, this time for a late foul on Targett in quite a dangerous position for Brighton.
- 66'Substitution - In31 - Leon BaileySubstitution - Out20 - Danny IngsIngs comes off for Villa, and Leon Bailey replaces him on the left wing.
- 64'Substitution - In20 - Solly MarchSubstitution - Out3 - CucuCucurella's been busy all game down the left for Brighton, and he's replaced by Solly March.
- 59'Yellow card19 - Marvelous NakambaNakamba shoves Lamptey over and catches the Brighton man on the way down, and the not-so-marvelous challenge sees the Villa midfielder put into the book.
- 49'Yellow card3 - CucuBuendia cuts inside looking to create an opportunity, before he's tugged from behind and brought down by Cucurella. The Spanish wing-back receives the game's first booking as a result.
