Aston Villa held Bournemouth to a 1-1 draw at the Vitality Stadium in our Premier League encounter on Saturday.
Morgan Rogers broke the deadlock in the first half with a fantastic finish, but the hosts continued to threaten before finding an equaliser shortly after the break.
Villa had to dig in and defend well to ensure we came away with at least a point, and so albeit it was a bitterly disappointing performance, it feels like a decent result to come away with a draw.
That said it does allow the chasing pack to close the gap on us in the race for Champions League qualification.
On the agenda in this episode:
* Martinez decisive in helping seal draw
* Defensive lapse costs us
* Onana-Luiz partnership
* Watkins struggles
* and much more
