Villa Park witnessed a riveting encounter that ultimately played out as a goalless affair. Both Aston Villa and Manchester United grinded through without finding the net, and the curtain drew to a close with a 0-0 draw.
The result means Aston Villa stay in fifth place and Manchester United are in 14th.
“We had very good organisation and very good personality in the team. Resilient, determined. So it was a very good spirit as a team,’ Erik ten Hag said.
‘We almost didn’t concede a chance. When you defend like this, you can have some luck, like in the end with the big chance at the back post.,’ he added.
‘It’s not the best result but it’s not the worst. With how we played in the first half and second half, I think the draw could be fair for both teams,’ Aston Villa boss Unai Emery told Sky Sports.
‘At the end, we had two good chances to score. Maybe that was the key moment to beat them. But in the 90 minutes we missed some energy,’ he added.
Aston Villa play Fulham on 19 October, AFC Bournemouth on 26 October and Tottenham Hotspur (away) on 3 November. Manchester United’s next opponents are Brentford on 19 October, West Ham United on 27 October and Chelsea (home) on 3 November.
