London, November 13 (BNA): Aston Villa recovered from a conceded goal in the first minute to score their first away win of the season, beating Brighton 2-1 on Sunday to give new coach Unai Emery their second successive Premier League win.
Danny Ings scored the two goals for FIA and equalized in the first half from a penalty kick, then scored the winning goal in the 54th minute with a low shot that veered into the near post.
Emery has now overseen league victories over Manchester United and Brighton since taking charge of Steven Gerrard, although the Spaniard’s insistence on playing from behind came at a cost to his side.
With Brighton under pressure from goalkeeper Aimee Martinez, Alexis McAllister took the short pass to Douglas Luiz, who netted after just 49 seconds to score his fifth goal of the season.
This was Brighton’s fastest goal in the Premier League. The Associated Press said Villa responded well and tied at 20.
Emi Buendia found space and produced a perfectly weighted pass for John McGinn to race on, as Lewis Dunk brought down the Scotland captain inside the area.
Ings converted the penalty, although Robert Sanchez was awarded a penalty.
Leandro Trossard netted Brighton five minutes into the second half but his long-range scream was not counted as referee Chris Kavanagh blew his whistle for a foul on Matty Cash.
Cash almost made Villa’s second goal when he got in behind Pervis Estupinan and crossed to Buendia, but the Argentine’s header hit the post.
Emery’s side remained alert and took the lead seconds later in the 54th minute.
Luiz was able to make up for his mistake in Brighton’s opening match by grabbing McAllister outside the home penalty area and dribbling Ings past Dunk before defeating Sanchez after a drift on Levi Colwell.
