It was an emotional Saturday at Villa Park, in the duel that Aston Villa and Manchester United drew 2-2. The Argentinian Emiliano ‘Dibu’ Martínez opened the day with an error that would mark the frenetic development of the game.
It was the 6th minute of the game when Bruno Fernandes shot the home team’s goal from mid-range and the ball slipped under Emiliano Martínez’s legs, after not being able to save it satisfactorily.
‘Dibu’ became a villain early in the duel that promised changes. Then the Portuguese scored again and put the game 0-2 at 67′, before Aston Villa’s reaction.
Last 25 September 2021 this image had occurred, Martínez challenged Cristiano Ronaldo so that he kicked the penalty. Bruno was the one who fired and after the failed charge he began to dance in front of the Manchester United crowd.
Going back to 2022, this Saturday’s duel, Aston Villa came from behind thanks to an assist and a goal of the Brazilian Philippe Coutinho. The newly arrived creative midfielder from FC Barcelona left a goal pass to Jacob Ramsey and then was responsible for putting the final 2-2.
This goal unleashed the fury of Emiliano Martínez, who ran towards the fans and hugged them as a sign of relief.
