May 26th According to the BBC, Emery was interviewed by reporters after Aston Villa lost 0-2 to Manchester United and talked about the team's performance in this game.
Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery talked about the canceled goal of Morgan Rodgers in an interview with the BBC, saying: "Good evening. Today we started the game poorly and didn't play the way we wanted. We were gradually improving, starting to get into the good position and having a chance to get into the opponent's penalty area, and then we encountered a red card (Martinez was sent off). After the red card, the game completely changed., We need to show resilience, and we did do it.
"We need to defend and believe there will be an offensive opportunity to score, and we did get that opportunity." The goal was cancelled was a mistake, we know, and the referee knew it. Of course, we have to accept the referee’s mistake, and he understands this. Of course, as coaches and players, we can make mistakes, and referees can make mistakes. Today, we lost the opportunity to enter the Champions League, but entering the European Games is our primary goal. Being able to participate in the Europa League is an opportunity we should cherish. ”
In addition, Emery also talked about Martinez's red card, and said: "It's hard to accept that we have one player missing. Because in a game like Old Trafford against Manchester United, 11-to-11 is already difficult, and one person is even more difficult. But we are still struggling to compete, trying to believe we will have some chances to enter the other side’s penalty area. However, when we did, the goal was cancelled. I accept that this is a mistake, but it is a critical moment. Maybe that goal will make the game different.
Finally, Emery talked about the team's performance this season, saying: "We have to accept the performance of the whole season, and today's results are a reflection of the whole season. We were not stable enough in the first half of the season, and I am proud of the players and the results we have achieved, and we need to continue moving forward next season."
