A near sell-out crowd at Villa Park is here to see Burnley take on the plucky Villans. Our pre-match entertainment takes the form of a 'keepie-up' contest in which the younger contestants fare significantly better than their elders.
The customary fish and chip lunch consumed we make our way into the stadium for this afternoon's game. It proves to be a topsy turvy affair. Villa take the lead twice through goals by Anwar El Ghazi and the mighty John McGinn only to be pegged back each time by a determined Burnley squad.
A draw is by no means the worst result in the world and Villa played some really exciting attacking football, especially in the first half. However, we really must master the art of closing out a game when in a winning position or we risk ending up in the relegation zone come the end of the season.
