Zion Suzuki horror own goal haunts Aston Villa to hand Fulham equaliser

Fulham helped cement Jamie Carragher’s argument that Aston Villa will never be Manchester United. No, they know how to grind out a point on a bad day and can go to Barcelona on Tuesday with some confidence.

Zion Suzuki’s own goal denied Unai Emery’s team a fifth win in six games after Nicolas Jackson’s eighth goal of the season had promised to lift a resurgent Villa back into the top third of the Premier League.

But while Villa were made to look below par by a Fulham side making it seven points from the last nine, the home supporters sang long and loud to make their manager know how much he is appreciated round these parts.
