And breathe! It's full-time at Villa Park, and Aston Villa take the spoils after scoring three late goals to break Crystal Palace's hearts. The Eagles went ahead through Edouard's finish on the break, and they still led with just three minutes of the 90 remaining. However, Villa substitute Duran levelled with a ferocious volley before the award of a contentious penalty allowed Luiz to put Villa ahead deep into stoppage time. With Palace chasing the game, Bailey turned in Diaby's cross to add a late third for the hosts. What a win for Emery's men!
