Villa Robbed of Goal by Ref's Decision
- Aston Villa lost 2-0 to Manchester United on Sunday, missing out on a place in next season's Champions League after finishing sixth in the Premier League.
- The defeat followed referee Thomas Bramall's disallowing of Morgan Rogers' goal, a decision Villa claim was a mistake that affected their Champions League qualification.
- Bramall judged that the ball was under the control of Manchester United’s goalkeeper Bayindir before Rogers managed to kick it away, and because the referee blew his whistle early, VAR was unable to review the incident.
- Villa director Damian Vidagany and manager Unai Emery criticized Bramall's appointment given his limited experience and said they would formally complain to the refereeing body about selection standards.
- Although the club acknowledges the result will not change, they called for better referee assignments for high-stakes matches and proper use of VAR technology to prevent similar issues.
