Abraham strikes late to secure crucial victory for Villa
Aston Villa moved 10 points clear in the top five as Tammy Abraham came off the bench to seal a Champions League push.
- On Saturday, substitute Tammy Abraham scored a 93rd-minute winner as Aston Villa defeated Sunderland 4-3 at Villa Park, taking a huge step toward securing Champions League football next season.
- Ollie Watkins netted twice inside two minutes and before halftime, reaching his 101st Villa goal, while Morgan Rogers also scored to establish a 3-1 lead early in the second half.
- Sunderland mounted a dramatic comeback as Trai Hume and Wilson Isidor scored within one minute, though goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez denied Habib Diarra in stoppage time to preserve Villa's victory.
- Victory provides Aston Villa with a 10-point cushion in the Champions League places with five games remaining, while Sunderland missed the opportunity to climb higher in the Premier League table.
- Watkins' performance bolsters his case for England manager Thomas Tuchel's World Cup plans this summer, though Jadon Sancho will feel relieved after gifting Sunderland a goal through careless possession loss.
