Aston Villa secured a 2-1 victory against Manchester United at Villa Park on Sunday, with Morgan Rogers delivering a standout performance. The 23-year-old forward scored both goals for the Villans, continuing his impressive form.

Rogers' goals were the result of cutting in from the left side and curling the ball past Manchester United's goalkeeper, Senne Lammens, into the top right corner of the net. He scored on either side of halftime. Rogers humbly attributed his success to dedicated practice, stating, "It's hard work, it's long hours and you want every one to go in the top corner like that, so it's nice when one does go in,". He emphasized the importance of perseverance and acknowledged that luck also played a role.

This victory marks Aston Villa's seventh consecutive win in the league and tenth straight overall. Rogers expressed his satisfaction with the team's achievements and their focus on each match as it comes. "It's massive," he said, emphasizing the significance of every game, especially against a strong team like Manchester United. He acknowledged their poor record against United and the importance of setting things right.

Aston Villa is currently in excellent form, holding 3rd position in the Premier League with 33 points from 16 matches. Their recent form shows a five-match winning streak, with their most recent league match before United resulting in a 3-2 away win over West Ham. Rogers also scored twice in that match and earned a high rating of 9.1.

Manchester United, in contrast, is in 6th place with 26 points from 16 matches. Their form has been inconsistent with two wins, two draws, and one loss in their last five matches. Their previous league match ended in a 4-4 draw against Bournemouth.

Historically, Manchester United has dominated the head-to-head record against Aston Villa, winning 43 of 62 games since 1995, while Aston Villa has won only 4. However, Aston Villa's recent performance indicates a shift in the dynamic between the two clubs.

Rogers has been a key player for Aston Villa this season, showcasing his talent with 16 goals and 14 assists in 64 appearances in the top 5 leagues. His contributions have been vital to Aston Villa's success.

Aston Villa's next challenge is to maintain their winning momentum and compete with top teams like Arsenal and Manchester City for the Premier League title.
