Aston Villa's Tyrone Mings elbowed Bournemouth's Alex Scott in Saturday's Premier League match, resulting in the midfielder suffering a fractured jaw. The incident occurred in the sixth minute, with Scott requiring lengthy treatment but continuing to play. He was eventually replaced at half-time due to the injury. Aston Villa were reduced to 10 men when Jacob Ramsey received a second yellow card, but Mings escaped a caution. Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola expressed his dismay over Mings not receiving a red card, describing the elbow as "very violent." BBC Match of the Day pundits debated the incident, with former Wales defender Ashley Williams suggesting Mings may not have meant it, but former Newcastle and Aston Villa goalkeeper Shay Given disagreed, believing Mings was aware of the collision.
