Paul McGrath reacts to Aston Villa result vs Manchester City on Twitter

Aston Villa suffered defeat against Manchester City in the Premier League clash on Saturday at the Etihad Stadium.

Paul McGrath has expressed his frustration on social networking site Twitter after Aston Villa were not being awarded a penalty against Manchester City this afternoon.

The former Villa hero feels that John Stones had handled the ball twice inside his own penalty area. He is particularly disappointment with VAR for failing to award Villa a legitimate penalty.

City were dominant once again at home and won the match 3-0. Villa’s resistance lasted for only 20 seconds after the break as goals from Raheem Sterling, Kevin De Bruyne and Ilkay Gündogan sealed all three points for the home side.
