Villa snatch victory from Luton due to late goal from Digne

Aston Villa continued their push for a top-four finish in the Premier League with a hard-fought 3-2 victory over Luton at Kenilworth Road.

Substitute Lucas Digne was the hero for Villa, heading in the winning goal in the 89th minute.

Villa seemed in control after Ollie Watkins scored twice in the first half, but Luton fought back bravely in the second half. Tahith Chong and Carlton Morris scored to level the game at 2-2, setting up a tense finish.

However, Digne’s late header secured the win for Villa, maintaining their five-point lead over Tottenham in the race for the Champions League.

The match also saw some standout performances, with Luton’s goalkeeper Thomas Kaminski making several impressive saves to keep his team in the game. However, his efforts were ultimately in vain as Villa secured all three points.

Overall, it was a thrilling encounter that showcased the competitive nature of the Premier League and Villa’s determination to secure a top-four finish.
