Suzuki's costly mistake as Villa draw with Fulham

Suzuki's costly mistake as Villa draw with Fulham

Aston Villa goalkeeper Zion Suzuki made a costly mistake for Fulham as the teams drew 1-1 in a Premier League match at Villa Park. Suzuki dropped Alex Iwobi's corner into his own net midway through the second half, scoring an own goal that proved costly. Earlier, Nicolas Jackson had scored his sixth goal of the month, helping Villa take a first-half lead.

The Japan international, who joined Aston Villa for £30 million in August, had been in impressive form, scoring six goals in October alone. However, Suzuki's error allowed Fulham to equalize and claim the points. Villa now have three wins, three draws, and three losses in their nine league matches, sitting ninth in the table. Fulham are in 15th place, three points and six positions above Villa.
