Emiliano Martinez has set a regrettable new Premier League record following Aston Villa’s 3-3 draw with Liverpool.
Despite trailing 3-1, Villa salvaged a crucial point in their pursuit of Champions League qualification, thanks to a late double from Jhon Duran. While their European aspirations hang in the balance, Unai Emery’s squad remains well-placed heading into the final showdown against an in-form Crystal Palace.
Few would have felt the weight of the late comeback more than Villa’s goalkeeper Martinez, who endured a monumental error early in the match. Just two minutes into the game, Martinez inadvertently directed a Harvey Elliott cross into his own net after a deflection off Pau Torres, leaving the former Arsenal shot-stopper visibly bewildered.
