Emery accepts Villa earned very good point, hails fantastic Rogers in Bournemouth draw - Soccer News
"Rogers scored his 10th goal in all competitions this season with a lovely driven effort into the roof of the net in the first half to put Villa in front. Only Erling Haaland (eight) and Igor Thiago (seven) have scored more Premier League away goals this season than Rogers (six), while his eight league goals this season is already as many as he managed in 2024-25."
""The second half we couldn't [play how they wanted], they pushed us. "They were in our box more times than we wanted. We tried to get some momentum to dominate. We created one chance with Matty Cash, but they created more. It's a very good point. "We defended fantastic. It's necessary to practice defending throw-ins and corners. A lot of duels. They are producing a lot of hands. We must fight.""
Aston Villa drew 1-1 at Bournemouth after Morgan Rogers put Villa ahead with a driven finish that was his 10th goal of the season. Rogers has six Premier League away goals this season, behind only Erling Haaland and Igor Thiago, and his eight league goals match his 2024-25 total. Bournemouth equalized around 10 minutes after the restart through Rayan. Emiliano Martínez made seven saves, one of his highest Premier League totals, denying late Ryan Christie efforts. Unai Emery praised Rogers, called the point very good, highlighted defensive resilience, and stressed practicing defending set plays. Jadon Sancho assisted Rogers and created chances.
