Aston Villa 0-0 Juventus: Emery's side frustrated as VAR denies Rogers late winner
Aston Villa thought they had snatched all three points against Juventus through Morgan Rogers, but VAR had other ideas.
Aston Villa were denied a dramatic victory over Juventus after Morgan Rogers saw a stoppage-time goal chalked off in the 0-0 draw.
Unai Emery's side were left frustrated at not leaving Villa Park with all three points, having controlled large periods against the Serie A outfit, who started again without a recognised striker.
Villa, seeking a third win in as many home Champions League games this season, went close in the 37th minute as Ollie Watkins' instinctive shot was beaten away by Michele Di Gregorio.
Timothy Weah fired narrowly over following a swift counter at the other end, while Lucas Digne's free-kick struck the bar with the last action of the first half.
Both sides had chances after the break as Emiliano Martinez clawed off the line from Francisco Conceicao, while Manuel Locatelli blocked John McGinn's goalbound strike.
The hosts thought they had snatched all three points in stoppage time when Di Gregorio spilt Youri Tielemans' free-kick, allowing Rogers to fire home.
However, a VAR review ruled Diego Carlos' collision with Di Gregorio in the build-up worthy of a foul, and boos echoed around Villa Park as the effort was ruled out.
Data Debrief: Villa match Milan and Chelsea after another clean sheet
Villa's winless streak across all competitions continues, as they go seven games without victory for the first time under Emery.
However, they became only the third team to keep a clean sheet in each of their first three home games in the Champions League after AC Milan (1992-93) and Chelsea (1999-00)
Meanwhile Juve, who fielded their youngest starting XI in a Champions League game (24 years and 142 days), registered their first shutout in the competition since December 2021 (1-0 against Malmo).
