This Monday evening, Aston Villa and Liverpool were unable to decide between themselves (3-3), at the end of the 37th day of the championship.
Liverpool and Aston Villa neutralized each other 3-3 after a spectacular match full of twists and turns Monday evening at Villa Park at the end of the 37th day of the Premier League. The Villans, who had big names like Manchester City and Arsenal on their radar, were planning to reserve the same fate for Jürgen Klopp’s Reds for his very last away match with Liverpool.
But Unai Emery’s team, out of breath after its elimination in the semi-finals of the Europa Conference League, beaten by Olympiakos (4-2,2-0), could not get off to a bad start to this final home outing. of the season: a big blunder by Argentinian goalkeeper Dibu Martinez on a harmless cross from Harvey Elliott, started the match in favor of the visitors (2nd).
A second error of concentration was fatal for him since the Reds exploited it wonderfully to regain the advantage, Cody Gakpo finishing from close range after a caviar from Joe Gomez on the edge of offside, goal validated after verification of the VAR (23rd).
Previously, Villa got back on track thanks to Youri Tielemans who, returning from injury, fired a powerful strike at the entrance to the penalty area at the conclusion of a great collective action (12th).
Back from the locker room, Quansah, at fault for the equalizer, made the break with a powerful header with the help of the bar (3-1, 48th). But, the Villans found resources to equalize everything in three minutes through the opportunist Jhon Duran (85th, 88th). For Klopp’s side, Liverpool, lost in recent weeks in the title race but assured of competing in the C1 next season, will host Wolverhampton on Sunday at the end of the championship.
Aston Villa for its part has not yet validated the 4th and final ticket for the C1. With 68 points, the Villans are five points ahead of 5th, Tottenham, but Spurs have a late match to play – it will be Tuesday against Manchester City – before the 38th and final day of the Premier League.
