The story in brief
- Unai Emery said he was angry with the situation and not his players after Aston Villa conceded twice after the 90th minute.
- He put the 96th-minute equaliser down to Zion Suzuki adapting to the way the Premier League lets attackers crowd goalkeepers.
- He explained he left before the end because the match had already gone 30 seconds past the six added minutes.
Aston Villa were two goals up at Old Trafford in the 90th minute, and Unai Emery was in the tunnel when it finished 4-4.
