How Tielemans’ Game-Changing Moment Ignited Villa’s Charge to Keep Top-Five Hopes Alive
The Belgian midfielder, who has started every league fixture for Emery’s side this season, headed home John McGinn’s corner on 12-minutes for what proved to be the winner at Villa Park on Saturday.
Villa, now 20 games unbeaten at home, missed a host of chances in the second-half but held on to secure a win that moves them level on points with Chelsea and Nottingham Forest and keeps their ambition of successive seasons in the Champions League firmly alive.
Defeat for Fulham, meanwhile, dents their push for a European spot next term. Marco Silva’s men are currently in eighth, nine points adrift of Villa.
