Unai Emery's side were left frustrated at not leaving Villa Park w♔ith all three points, having controlled large periods agains🍷t the Serie A outfit, who started again with 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' insti🌜nctive shot was b꧟eaten away by Michele Di Gregorio.

Timothy Weah fired nar🎃rowly over following a swift counter at the other end, while Lucas Digne's free-kick struck the bar with the last action of t𒁃he first half.

Both sides had chances after the break. Emiliano Martinez cཧlawed off the line from Francisco Conceicao, while Manu✱el 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 aroun𒆙d 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 cleanꩲ 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 yearsඣ and 142 days), they registered their first shutout in the competition since December 2021 (1-0 against Malmo).
