The Hammers will be deprived of the oldest football tournament at the 1/32 final stage.

As part of the 1/32 final of the English Cup, Birmingham's Aston Villa clashed with London's West Gem, in which Graham Potter made his debut, having previously officially replaced head coach Julen Lopetegui..

Already in the 9th century, Potter’s newly-minted wards were able to please their new Kermanich with a goal, scored by Lucas Paqueta.

And since Aston Villa showed absolutely nothing in the first half, even after the break, for the evidence of a minimal advantage in the game, the “hammers” forgot about the attack, for which they paid for the stink in the bag.

Aston Villa, in their signature style, turned the match around to their advantage in the final period, and goals from Amadou Onan and Morgan Rogers earned them a ticket to the next stage of the FA Cup.

Aston Villa - West Gem 2:1 Goals: Onana 71, Rogers 76 - Paqueta 9 Aston Villa: Olsen - Cash (Nedeljkovic 72), Konsa, Mings, Matsen - Kamara (Remzi 72), Tielemans - Bailey (.
