Unai Emery says Aston Villa were denied a “clear penalty” in the team’s 2-0 defeat to Liverpool. Villa had two penalty appeals waved away by referee David Coote with Emery insisting Pau Torres’ shirt was tugged by defender Conor Bradley in the second half.

Unai Emery confirmed Jacob Ramsey suffered a hamstring injury in Aston Villa's defeat against Liverpool, while Boubacar Kamara felt something late on.

Darwin Nunez gave Liverpool the lead in the 20th minute after a quick counter-attack following an Aston Villa corner. Mohamed Salah drove the ball forward and set up Nunez, who scored with a shot over goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez from a tight angle.
