This might be the loudest rendition of 'Hi Ho Aston Villa' ever.

What a win! Are Unai Emery's side title contenders?

They're dancing in the stands of Aston.

Jubilant scenes at Villa Park as the hosts celebrate another monumental win.

Unai Emery's side stay third in the Premier League, a point behind Arsenal with new leaders Liverpool two points ahead.

Villa hold on! Back-to-back wins over Manchester City and Arsenal... incredible.

Do we have a new title challenger entering the ring?

If this isn't the last roll of the dice it won't be far off.

Arsenal pump it forward and Eddie Nketiah heads over the ball.

Doesn't matter, he's offside anyway. More brave and bold defending by the hosts.

Almost there...

A long ball into the Villa box is greeted by cheers before Emi Martinez goes down under the slightest touch from Kai Havertz.

Caught in the Martinez trap...

Havertz reacts, there is a head to head and it all boils down to slowing the game down.

More defending for Villa to do. Their fans rediscover their voices and belt out some much-needed vocal support for the lads.

Sometimes the best form of defence is attack and that's what John McGinn thinks.

The Villa scorer carries the ball into the Arsenal box and has a pop from a tight angle. Saved.

There was initially supposed to be five minutes of stoppage time but we've at least a couple minutes of delay for that VAR check.

Lots more for Aston Villa to do before they can properly celebrate...

The decision stands. No goal!

Aston Villa fans celebrate like they've just grabbed a second themselves.

Inching closer to the finish line...

Incredible right at the end. Everyone around the referee, uncertainty.

Goalkeeper at him on the back post yet he's on the floor waiting to find out the decision. VAR checking it as well.

The Villa fans celebrate that disallowed goal as if their team has scored.

Now we wait...

Ooof. A lot to sort out here.

Arms and legs everywhere as Matty Cash and Kai Havertz tussle for the ball before it is poked in.

Looks like referee Gillett has called it right but the VAR will go through it all in slo-mo and minute detail.

Kai Havertz bundles the ball into the Villa net - but it is immediately ruled out by ref Jarred Gillett for a handball by the German.

Two minutes for Aston Villa to hold out...

Nah, there is a clash and it is a foul by Diego Carlos. Yellow card will do.

Ooh, there is a clash between Diego Carlos and Eddie Nketiah close to the halfway line as the Arsenal forward tries to run off his marker.

Anything in that? VAR is going to have a look for potential violent conduct.

Trossard is quickly back on his feet and Arsenal get the ball moving again.

Can they create one more big chance? And, this time, take it?

Villa hold firm at the back before John McGinn hits a hopeful ball down the line to nobody.

Leandro Trossard then goes down after a tussle with Matty Cash and needs some treatment.
