Not this nonsense again. "Villa would have been relegated". I didn't realise the game and indeed the rest of the season would have finished the second after Sheffield United had scored. A mistake was made, like mistakes get made every single weekend. We had some absolutely shocking errors go against us that season, like when we scored a perfectly good goal against Palace that was wrongly ruled out, and conceding a penalty at Old Trafford for Fernandes planting his boot into Konsa's shin.
It wasn't the final game of the season in any case, it was against Sheffield United the first game back after lock down, with ten games to go.
How Fernandes did not get a red card for that foul is beyond me. We (and, from memory, the commentators) all thought it was a clear and malicious foul.
