52 h. ago Ollie Watkins on target as Aston Villa beat Bournemouth to boost top

A little over a month ago Aston Villa were preparing for the Parc des Princes and while they have enjoyed some memorable trips on the continent this campaign, it was hard to escape the sense that this one, in more modest surroundings in the spring Dorset sunshine, was arguably their most significant takeaway of the season yet. It probably felt even bigger for Unai Emery given his side finished with 10 men, Jacob Ramsey sent off late on for a second yellow card offence. And then deep into second-half stoppage time, Emiliano Martínez made a magnificent save to prevent Antoine Semenyo from side-footing in an equaliser.Ollie Watkins scored the only goal on the verge of half-time, his deft finish sufficient to earn a priceless Villa win in the race to qualify again for the Champions League and eclipse Gabriel Agbonlahor’s Premier League goalscoring record, this the England striker’s 75th in the top flight. “Something tells me I’m into something good,” crooned the 1,307 away supporters on...

8 d. ago Alexander Isak on the spot to help Newcastle share the spoils at Brighton

Three times the referee Craig Pawson awarded penalties to Newcastle in the second half. Twice they were overturned by VAR but the third one stood, and Alexander Isak converted to earn Newcastle a vital point in the race for Champions League football. They had not played well, but they never do against Brighton, and in that context a draw earned with an 89th-minute equaliser was extremely welcome.“Keeping our composure and making sure our performance wasn’t affected by the outcomes [of the VAR decisions] was key,” said the Newcastle manager Eddie Howe, who acknowledged the VAR was right to rule out the first two penalties. “If you look at the season as a whole we probably haven’t dug out enough points from games that are in the balance.
