Aston Villa 3-2 Manchester City: Weimann completes dramatic turnaround

Goals from Yaya Toure and Edin Dzeko were not enough as last season's runners-up were handed a reality check following last weekend's dominant victory in the Manchester derby
Leandro Bacuna and Andreas Weimann left Manchester Citystunned as Aston Villatwice came from behind to record a remarkable 3-2 victory.
Fresh from netting nine goals in a week against Manchester United and Wigan Athletic, City were in dominant mood in the first half on Saturday but had to wait for Yaya Toure's sixth strike in eight games to put them ahead in its final minute.
Having failed to muster a shot on target before the break, Karim El Ahmadi produced a clinical finish to haul Villa level amid strong suspicions of offside in the 51st minute.
Manuel Pellegrini must be starting to hate away games now. He tasted defeat away to Cardiff City, drew to Stoke and now has found himself on the receiving end of a crushing victory at Villa Park in a match they should never have lost.
The Chilean stood on the sideline as City dominated a first half against a Villa side boasting a back three.
However, tinkering from the hosts' boss after the break changed matters. It's a huge victory for Lambert as goals looked an issue without Gabby Agbonlahor and Christian Benteke, but it was not today.Edin Dzeko glanced in from Samir Nasri's corner to restore City's advantage five minutes later but Bacuna lashed home a stunning free-kick for his first Villa goal after Matija Nastasic fouled Weimann.
