Midfielder Youri Tielemans: Midfielder Youri Tielemans was left frustrated after Aston Villa fell to a 94th-minute goal in Wednesday’s (IST) 2-1 defeat against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.
Portuguese holding midfielder Matheus Nunes, who played full-back on the day, struck deep into stoppage time to seal all three points in a tightly-contested encounter in Manchester, ensuring Villa left empty handed.
The Belgian felt it was a game of fine margins, and that his side’s efforts perhaps warranted more from the game. "It’s very frustrating to lose (in the) last minute of the game where we fought really hard. We blocked pretty much everything other than their goal, their first one. We get the first chance, they get the last one. They score; we don’t. That’s football, it’s just really frustrating. To lose like that, on that last action, was so frustrating," said Tielemans to Villa's website.
