Morgan Rogers was denied a stoppage time winner by VAR as Aston Villa held Juventus to a goalless draw at the Villa Park on Wednesday night.
Juventus dominated possession in the opening quarter but it was Villa who went closest to opening the scoring as Pau Torres’ header from Leon Bailey’s corner found the roof of the net.
Martínez had to get down to his left to deny Conceicao before Digne came within inches of finding a breakthrough in first-half injury time as his 20-yard free-kick hit the woodwork.
Shortly after the hour mark, Martinez made another brilliant stop to keep out Conceicao’s low header at the far post from Teun Koopmeiners’ deep corner.
Villa thought they had clinched a dramatic win in injury time as Rogers found the net from close range, but his effort was ruled out for a foul on goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio.
There was very little to separate the two sides at Villa Park as they were forced to settle for a point apiece.
Aston Villa, winless in their last seven games, sit ninth in the table after five games, while their Italian visitors are 17th.
