Emery urges Aston Villa to try their best to get all three points in the future

In the focus match of the 29th round of the 2024/25 Premier League, Aston Villa drew 2-2 with Liverpool after Tielemans and Watkins scored goals when they were leading. Coach Emery said that his team must keep moving forward and must do their best to win 3 points in the future games.

In the 29th minute of the game, Jota won the ball and assisted Salah to score, helping Liverpool to open the scoring with a 1-0 lead. In the 38th minute, Mings' header was cleared by Liverpool midfielder Soboslai, and Tielemans, who was unguarded, volleyed and hit the goal, helping Aston Villa to tie the score 1-1.

In the first half stoppage time, Digne made a cross from the left and Watkins scored with a header, helping Aston Villa lead Liverpool 2-1. In the 61st minute of the second half, Salah broke through the defense and passed the ball back, and Arnold received it and scored with a long shot, helping Liverpool tie the score 2-2.

In the end, Aston Villa was tied by Liverpool 2-2 at home. After only getting one point in this game, Aston Villa is currently ranked 9th in the standings with 39 points, and is in a passive position in the fight for the Champions League qualification.

Aston Villa manager Emery said: "I am satisfied with this game and the team's performance. We are in a new era and on a new path. We are certainly not happy with a draw at home. We also drew against Ipswich last week, and now we have a draw again."

"But I think this is a fair result. Both teams created a lot of chances. Sometimes we took the initiative, and sometimes the opponent took the initiative. Overall, in the 90 minutes of the game, this score is fair."

Emery also said, "Of course we wanted to win, but the most important thing was that the team fought until the last minute, kept pressing and attacking, and worked hard for the third goal. We tried until the last minute, but in the end it was not enough."

"But I am happy with the team's performance. We showed the competitiveness we should have. Some players are getting better and some injured players are gradually recovering."

In addition, Emery also emphasized, "We will keep moving forward. The current focus is on the game against Chelsea, and we have only lost to Arsenal at home in the Premier League. But we have had too many draws at home recently, and now we must work hard to get 3 points."
