A point for Liverpool may be meaningless in their quest to win the title as wins for Manchester City and Arsenal over the weekend.

Aston Villa’s Columbian striker #24 Jhon Duran celebrates scoring the team’s third goal during the English Premier League football match between Aston Villa and Liverpool at Villa Park in Birmingham, central England on May 13, 2024. Jhon Duran struck twice in the final five minutes to salvage a 3-3 draw for Aston Villa against Liverpool but they fell short of guaranteeing a place in next season’s Champions League on Monday.

But they are stumbling over the finish line as the strain of combining a challenge for the Champions League alongside a run to the Europa Conference League semi-finals has taken its toll.Martinez’s return to fitness after he missed last weekend’s 1-0 defeat at Brighton should have been a major boost for the home side.But the Argentine World Cup winner’s howler handed Liverpool the opening goal after just two minutes as he fumbled Harvey Elliott’s deflected cross into his own net.

There was still time for Villa to mount a memorable comeback had they been more ruthless as Liverpool’s own defensive weaknesses were laid bare. Had it not been for an injury to substitute Nicolo Zaniolo, Duran may not even have entered the field.
