Emery’s Old Trafford walk-off sets up extraordinary Sky Sports interview after Villa collapse

Aston Villa manager Unai Emery walked down the tunnel before the final whistle and gave a tense post-match interview following a 4-4 draw against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Villa led 4-2 at halftime but conceded stoppage-time goals to Joshua Zirkzee and Patrick Dorgu. In a post-match interview with Sky Sports reporter Patrick Davison, a visibly frustrated Emery explained that he departed early because he believed the allotted six minutes of added time had already expired.

Alysson, Nicolas Jackson, John McGinn, and Leon Goretzka scored Villa's goals before the late collapse. During the interview, Emery shared an awkward three-second stare with Davison after clarifying that he did not believe Dorgu's 96th-minute equalizer should have been disallowed. Despite extending their unbeaten Premier League run to six games, Villa enter the international break reflecting on the dropped points ahead of their November 21 fixture against Sunderland.
