Premier League: Aston Villa second after draw against Sheffield United

Aston Villa conceded a draw (1-1) against poorly ranked Sheffield United and missed the opportunity to take the lead in the English Championship, Friday at the opening of the 18th day.

The Birmingham club, who emerged victorious in their last fifteen Premier League matches at home, dominated the match but Unai Emery's players were surprised at the very end of the match by Cameron Archer on the reception of a withdrawn cross (87th).

Italian striker Nicolo Zaniolo, who entered in the 81st minute, saved Villa's honor by equalizing with a header at the end of added time (90 7).

With this result, Sheffield United (19th, 9 pts) leaves Burnley behind, who travel to Fulham on Saturday.

Aston Villa, which had the opportunity to take the lead in the standings in the event of a victory, temporarily climbs to second place tied with Arsenal (39 points), which faces Liverpool (3rd by one point) on Saturday at Anfield in the poster explosive of this 18th day, a sort of “final” before time between two competitors for the title.

Manchester City, fourth (34 points), passes its turn this weekend after winning the Club World Cup on Friday by beating the Brazilians Fluminense in the final (4-0) in Saudi Arabia.
