Aston Villa's victory had already sent Villa Park into celebration, but the biggest spotlight fell on Emi Buendia, who once again delivered a decisive moment. His late winner came after he stunned Arsenal with a dramatic strike , a moment SoftFootball reported in detail.
Villa's progress under Rob Edwards has been steady, with the team also grinding out results like the narrow win over Wolves , which SoftFootball covered earlier. Those games set the tone for what Buendia described as a really happy moment after everything he has gone through.
Speaking on Aston Villa's post-match live broadcast that was shared on the clubs official X account , the midfielder walked in smiling, though he admitted he had not even seen the dressing room yet.
