Last-ditch defending sees Villa defenders slide in and floor Dunn. Dunn slow to get up, seen by physios, he's alright.

Just found the live stream in time to see Warnock flattened... ouch. Committed challenge from him though.

PS Tell you what, for all the transfer mutterings during the summer, you can't beat seeing the boys out there in the claret and blue. Awesome.

Bent slips and slide tackles Givet. Didn't mean to, though.

Watching Delph and Albrighton warming up on the touchline.

just checked the current temprature in Hong Kong. Right now its 31c with relative humidity 70%. I reckon in those circumstances this is being played at a good pace,

Was that Herd #31 warming up with Fabian and Marc then?

He looks completely different, new haircut and a sleeve.

I'm genuinely impressed at how in shape Dunne and Collins are looking, very promising. Some good stuff from Warnock too, so far.

Makoun does look a very tidy player, but I simply can't imagine us playing with him as our only 'defensive midfielder'. That just doesn't seem to be his game at all; he's a good playmaker, though, keeps things ticking along quite nicely in the middle there.

Didn't recognise the player, might have been Herd.

Would HK had been a better place than Qatar for the WC?

Two mins until halftime. The game's gone off the boil a bit the last few minutes. I can't see the second half being as high tempo as the first!
