4th March: Tyrone Mings’ Incredible Goal-Line Clearance
Aston Villa overcame Club Brugge in the first leg of their Champions League round of 16 tie, winning 3-1 via goals from Leon Bailey, Marco Asensio and an own goal from Brandon Mechele. It’s Tyrone Mings they’ll be crediting for the result, though, after he pulled off a remarkable goal-line clearance to keep his side in the contest. With the score tied at 1-1 in the second half, Hans Vanaken looked destined to give Brugge the lead, but the defender denied him with an incredible lunge and the slightest deflection which took the ball just inches past the post.
From there, Unai Emery’s men scored twice and they have taken a solid two-goal advantage into the second leg when the two sides meet again at Villa Park next week.
