Aston Villa won on Sunday at Brighton (2-1) on the 16th day of the English championship, and thus moved back into the middle of the table (12th with 18 points) after having been in the the relegation zone.
This is the second victory in two league matches for the new coach of Aston Villa, the Spaniard Unai Emery, after that won against Manchester United (3-1, November 6).
The Lions were however led from the first minute, after a poor clearance from Emiliano Martinez which Alexis MacAllister took advantage of.
They were able to react fairly quickly, taking advantage of the lack of commitment from their opponent, seventh in the standings after a good start to the season, but unrecognizable this Sunday and who is only three points ahead in the standings.
Danny Ings equalized from the penalty spot after an unobvious foul by Lewis Dunk (20th, 1-1), before scoring his second goal after a duel lost by MacAllister against Douglas Luis (54th, 1-2).
