Youri Tielemans believes Aston Villa’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal was a deserved for uw and his teammates.
Arsenal looked to be heading for the three points thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Kai Havertz.
But Tielemans reduced the deficit on 60 minutes with a brilliant diving header before Ollie Watkins completed the comeback by getting on the score sheet minutes later.
“We came back really well into the game. The [first] goal gave us freedom and belief. It’s not an easy task. They were on top of us for 60 minutes,” Tielemans said after the game.
“I saw the space and tried to jump into it. Good goal.
“From our point of view [a good result] is always deserved. We take the point and move forward. They had many chances but we defended with our bodies on the line. 2-2 is a good result for us. First half we had a couple of counters, misplaced passes from me which could have put Ollie Watkins in.
“We fought really well to come back into the game.
“Big win. We have had some bad results away from home. We just need that consistency away from home because we’re doing well at Villa Park. It gives us a massive boost of confidence for the rest of the season.”
