Live updates from Villa Park as Aston Villa host Manchester United.
Ruben Amorim has just been in for his post-match press conference and says he expects Bruno Fernandes to miss “some games” but doesn’t know how long he will be out for.
He also doesn’t expect to have Kobbie Mainoo back for the next one.
Man Utd boss Ruben Amorim speaking to Sky Sports: “I think we were the better team today. We were unlucky, even with the injury of Bruno, but during the game even without him we were the better team.”
Aston Villa match winner Morgan Rogers speaking to Sky Sports: “I’m really confident and enjoying my football but it’s not just me, it’s the whole team.
“The team’s performances give me that belief and confidence and allow me to be me. That’s the most important thing. Our team performances are getting us the wins, not just me, so a big game and big win.”
It’s all over!
TEN wins in a row in all competitions for Aston Villa thanks to a superb double from Morgan Rogers.
Man Utd gave it a good go but come out on the losing side.
Mount has a go from the free-kick but bends it just over the bar.
Bogarde trips Dorgu and is booked. United have a free-kick out wide.
Four minutes of stoppage time left to play.
A good drive forward from Cunha before the ball eventually breaks for Lacey, whose shot is straight at the Villa goalkeeper.

Two more changes for Villa. Guessand replaces McGinn and Buendia is on for Onana.

Emery responds by making some changes of his own.
Digne and Malen replaces Watkins and Maatsen.

Zirkzee is set to come on for Man Utd.
Ugarte is shown a yellow card for bringing down Kamara.

Villa are back in front and it’s another superb strike from Rogers!
The forward picks up a loose ball and, much like for his first, bends a shot into the far corner.
Unai Emery ripped off his jacket and threw it in the air in celebration!
What a player Rogers is.
Villa again give the ball away poorly in their own half, Martinez drives forward, and then smashes a shot wide of the target.
