Aston Villa fans slam Steve Bruce following Carabao Cup exit

Aston Villa crashed out of the Carabao Cup after a 1-0 defeat against Burton last night.

The away side failed to create any meaningful chances throughout the game and Steve Bruce will be disappointed with the showing.

The League One side took the lead early on in the second half when Liam Boyce’s deflected shot found the back of the net.

Burton managed to hold on to their advantage despite going down to 10-men in the closing stages of the game. Kyle McFadzean was sent off in the 89th minute for a handball and a penalty was awarded to the away side.
