Aston Villa won their first game on the road in the Premier League for nearly two months as Steven Gerrard’s side beat Burnley 3-1 at Turf Moor this afternoon.
Former Claret Danny Ings opened the scoring in the first half, before Emi Buendia added a second before half-time. The Argentine came into the team in replace of Philippe Coutinho for this game and produced a top performance.
Ollie Watkins then bagged goal number three as he headed in John McGinn’s cross from the left, before Burnley scored a consolation goal through Maxwel Cornet. The result puts Villa within a point of the Premier League’s top half with four games remaining this campaign.

And Villa fans have been reacting to the win on social media. Here’s a sample of what have been saying on Twitter.
@TyBracey: To score 3 goals away at a very in-form Burnley is a huge confidence boost for us, and a well earned 3 points. Emi Buendia definitely the difference today, hungry and eager to prove he deserves his place in the starting 11 and rightly so.
@kolatovmoktail: Buendia who has shown that he fully justified today’s start… and many more starts, if I’m being honest. A classic performance today. Just got better as the game went on
@jamess_avfc: Buendia MOTM for me
@dvtavfc: Buendia man of the match. Brilliant stuff from him
@TomC2312_avfc: Emi Buendia. From Argentina
@oldmansaid: Buendia bossing it now.
@AVFCFaithful_: So frustrating to concede right at the end there but overall a good day at the office, good minutes for Chukwuemeka, and was great to see Buendia shine
@manvillan1212: Buendia was brilliant and absolutely deserves to keep his starting place. Ings looks much better in the last two games.
