Wolves take a step back after an avoidable miss
07.03.21 / 16:00
Aston Villa and Wolverhampton Wolves drew up as Wolves lost a golden opportunity in defending the ball rather than putting it through the goal post. Romain Saiss’ egregious mistake cost Wolves three points that could have given them a leg up in a close Premier League battle this season.
Conor Coady also could not find the target when his header hit the crossbar instead and the goal was inches away from the goal line while goalkeeper Emi Martinez did not realize that and Saiss’ touch could have pushed it in but he sent the ball flying vertically over the bar. Which is now being referred to as the “miss of the season”. But the night ultimately ended as a goalless draw as both the sides were unable to score
