'I told him I don't like it': Aston Villa boss Unai Emery reveals he was disappointed with goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez's costly decision to go up for a corner against Arsenal

Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has revealed that he was disappointed at Emiliano Martinez's costly decision to go up for a corner against Arsenal.

With Arsenal leading 3-2, Villa goalkeeper Martinez was trying to help his side get an equaliser during a chaotic encounter.

However, his decision to go up for the corner backfired, with Arsenal launching a counter-attack before Martinez could back and Gabriel Martinelli was able to score unopposed.

Emery stated that it was Martinez's decision to go up for the corner, with the manager not agreeing with his choice.
