Aston Villa Manager Unai Emery speaks to TNT Sports about Morgan Rogers’ inadmissible goal: “Good evening. The television is clear with the move, but of course we have to accept it. It was a mistake. A big mistake.
“The match that we played in 90 minutes with the red card and was not allowed was an important moment. But overall they did more. But we showed less resistance with a player. We could have scored a goal, and it would have been a good opportunity to continue and keep that we could not occur enough today to achieve a good result, but if some decisions were not as possible.”
About whether he spoke to the referee about the incident: “Yes, I told him, but he knows.”
About whether the referee admitted that it was a mistake: “The next question?”
Whether Var rules have to be changed: “I don’t want to talk about Var now.”
In the season of Aston Villa: “We made great efforts in the second part of the season. We lost the chance to be among the top 5 in the first half. I was satisfied with the progress of the season and has achieved the opportunity to play for the position of the Champions League today.
“We have the Europa League and have to be more or less happy about the performance. But we were close to the Champions League. We have to be happy and proud of everything we did, but we always want to improve. We have to continue and the Premier League is the most difficult league and is difficult to get Europe through the league.”
Emery later proposed in his press conference after the game that Bramall recognized a mistake. “I spoke to the referee and he knows his mistakes.” Said Emery.
“It is normal, I make mistakes every day. Today I made mistakes. Players make mistakes on the field. Sometimes we have to accept mistakes with referees. I think of Var and we have very good referees in the Premier League.”
“We are in Europe, we have to be happy”

Manchester United Manager Ruben Amorim speaks about the BBC game of the day: “Difficult week. Hard for everyone. But it was a good atmosphere from the players and supporters today. So we ended a terrible and hard season with a win. It’s a good feeling.
“We try it. We had games like this swing. In the final (Europa League) we were clearly the strong team. But sometimes we don’t meet. We had so many chances today. We improve, but we have a lot more to do next season.
“It is a special club with special people. We already know that it is so difficult to disappoint you when we play badly. It was a hard season, but this club is more than that and we will try to do better next season.
“We have to recognize that it will take some time. We will suffer a little more, but there will be better days. We change things that you cannot see in the results. You cannot see today, but you are there. It is in culture. We behave every day.”
On Aston Villa’s inadmissible goal: “I didn’t see the goal. But if it is not the right decision, the manager should be frustrated.”
For summer transmission plans: “You know better than I do that we have rules with FFP. We cannot change that this year. We have to do something in summer. We have a plan and we do that in a while. We also have a pre -season to improve the players we have.”
Aston Villa plans to submit official complaint to PL after loss at MAN UTD. #AVFC Feel that an experienced referee should be selected to officially open the game of such a size. PL was addressed for a comment @Theatleticfc https://t.co/qftmozx7jt

According to David Ornstein, Aston Villa plans to make the Premier League official complaint after her defeat against MAN UTD denies the qualification of the Club Champions League.
Aston Villa believes that an experienced referee should be selected to organize the game of such a size.
The 35-year-old Bramall was promoted to the selected group 1 before the 2022-23 season, the highest level for referees in England.
Bramall has served between the Premier League and the championship, 11 of these games in the top class and in the second stage, according to the transfer market.
The villa was already on 10 men when Rogers saw that his goal was sent after goalkeeper Emi Martinez at the end of the first half because of a foul by Rasmus Hojlund against Rasmus Hojlund.
The Unai Emery team only registered a shot on the finish during the game while United 10 had.
So the fans reacted with Aston Villa ‘to delete an official complaint into the Premier League after they have been bubbled …
@Creativechrispy: ‘Official complaint’ is not strong enough! With the financial selection of NSWE, we should threaten to sue @premierleague and @fa_pgmol – if you make a mistake that costs a company millions, you will be released! Just like that! #Utv #avfc
@Aduetto: I would not take care of it, not achieve anything and laugh all of these fans who do not support a “Big 6” club. Corrupt to his core and the villa have fought him for 3 years. #AVFC
@Andyrods: How will that make a difference
@Villaviews_: Most of them will not agree, but I have to say my opinion: Today’s REF error was terrible and cost us – but it is not “corruption” – it was a mistake. The guy involved (his name appears too much for me) wishes that Var could have saved him. Cut out, but let’s stay noble. #AVFC
@REECE_AV: Talk about decisions that you want, Villa was not good enough today, another show in a big game next to Palace Semi. But not knocking a European finish. Go and win it, UTV #AVFC
@Mike_land10:
We deserve to win – no
We somehow stayed in the game – yes
We won a goal against the run of the game – yes
We would have got UCL from there – I think so!
If we were lucky, yes – 100% yes!
But that’s football.

@Ollylb: As Newcastle fan. It was very happy and the villa was robbed by @fa_pgmol. No excuse for us to fill it and give mini arms a clean leaf. Rely on a terrible decision to qualify! Really poor, good end result, but not deserved, based on today’s performance. #nufc #avfc
@mcvillerton: The impact of an referee decision could irreversibly damage the direction of our club. Var is supposed to protect clubs from that. The Premier League and the @FA_PGMOL are a joke #avfc
