In a recent Champions League match, Villa lost 0-1 to Bruge. A highly unusual incident occurred during the game when Villa player Tyrone Mings picked up the ball with his hand inside the penalty area, directly awarding Bruge a penalty, which ultimately led to Villa’s defeat.
After the match, Bruge defender Dedryck Boyata stated: “I believe our victory was well-deserved because we performed excellently as a team. We didn’t give Villa many opportunities, and that was indeed a penalty, as the pass came from their goalkeeper.”
“Following our losses to Dortmund and Milan, this win is a huge boost, and we are firmly convinced of it.”
