Aston Villa round off 2023 with a narrow 3-2 win over Burnley here at Villa Park.
00:06
Claiming all three points to move to second in the Premier League behind Liverpool on goal difference.
00:10
Manchester City moving closer with a win over Sheffield United but the job is done here.
00:15
It wasn't pretty though to say the least. It took an 89th minute penalty from Douglas Luiz to seal the deal.
00:21
It should have been done a lot earlier. Lucid Diaby missing a whole host of chances.
00:24
That kind of comes to mind being the main player who missed them but it wasn't just him.
00:28
Villa didn't really have their shooting boots on all game long.
00:31
James Trafford to be fair to him, the Burnley goalkeeper, made a host of fantastic saves to keep the score at 2-1.
00:36
And then 2-2 as Lyle Foster scored. Burnley went down to 10 midway through the second half.
00:42
As Sander Berger was sent off for a second yellow card.
00:45
It was silly tugging the shirt of a Villa player. Shouldn't be doing that when you're a yellow.
00:49
And it put his side under pressure. But Burnley didn't let that put them down too much.
00:54
They got their second goal to equalise it. They looked like they were going to get a point.
00:58
Probably a deserved one as well for their efforts. Looked fantastic going forward.
01:02
Lyle Foster and Seki Amdouni doing very well at getting in behind.
01:05
Clom on long legs, Diego Carlos, even Pau Torres off the bench. Alex Moreno as well.
01:10
They didn't look themselves. Their positioning was pretty poor.
01:13
The offside trap didn't work as well as it usually does and Burnley took advantage.
01:17
As I said as well, not enough good finishing from Villa and it could have been very easily 2-2 here.
01:22
But Aaron Ramsey of all people, the brother of Jacob, the ex-Villa player,
01:26
took down John Duran, the super sub in the box, to win Villa a penalty very late and he scored it.
01:31
There was 9 minutes of added time in both halves. The second lot definitely creating a lot of tension here at Villa Park.
01:37
But it is three points secures. When you're not playing your best and you get three points,
01:41
it definitely doesn't feel great when you're watching it on performance wise.
01:45
But on paper, it's very important.
01:47
I've probably said the same about the Brentford win a few weeks ago.
01:50
Villa weren't at their best in that one. There was a sending off in that as well that helped them along the way.
01:54
That's two sets of three points that you wouldn't otherwise get.
01:57
I think Villa fans will go into the new year incredibly happy with how things are,
02:01
even despite a below par performance here and the draw with Sheffield United and the loss of Manchester United.
02:08
There's now a little bit of a break in the Premier League before action in the FA Cup.
