It was an action-packed first half at Bodymoor Heath, with City charging out the gates as we looked to continue our fine form in the league.
And it took Ben Wilkinson’s side just two minutes to open our account.
Ryan McAidoo cut inside onto his favoured left foot and placed his shot into the bottom right corner for his third league goal in as many games.
Mamad Sangare quickly doubled our lead two minutes later. The City striker guided home Sverre Nypan’s cross from inside the six-yard box.
With Villa flustered, our young boys in blue continued to press for more goals. This time Isaiah Dada-Mascoll curled a fantastic first-time effort into the top left corner from the edge of the Villa box, a certain contender for goal of the month, on 15 minutes.
Christian McFarlane completed the scoring in the first half, and would ultimately be the final strike of the game, with the full-back finding the back of the net from the left-hand side of the Villa box just before the half hour mark.
In our five successive Premier League 2 wins that see us climb to sixth in the standings, City have scored an impressive 22 and conceded just one.
