West Ham tied 1-1 with Aston Villa

On March 17, in a heated Premier League match, Aston Villa rallied from behind to clinch a 1-1 draw, denying West Ham United a thrilling stoppage time winner. After 29 minutes, Michail Antonio's stooping header—his first since August—gave the hosts the lead, and just before halftime, West Ham had goals disallowed for handball.

After some prolonged pressure, Nicolo Zaniolo, a fellow replacement, stabbed in Moussa Diaby's cutback to give Villa an equalizer in the 79th minute. After a protracted VAR examination, a goal that West Ham believed they had won at the last minute was disallowed for handball, giving both teams a draw. West Ham is eighth with 44 points, while Villa is still in fourth place with 56. Despite having played one more game, the draw saw fourth-place Villa overtake fifth-place Tottenham to the tune of three points. On Saturday, Tottenham was defeated 3-0 at Fulham.
