Club Brugge won 1-0 at home and took the season's second win in the Champions League. Thanks to Aston Villa's Tyrone Mings' brain fade.
The visitors' goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez started the play, Mings picked up the ball with his hands and moved it back – and thereby missed that the ball was already in play.
His mistake is just strange, says coach Unai Emery according to news agency AFP.
It's the biggest mistake I've seen during my career.
The misunderstanding resulted in a penalty for the home team.
Hans Vanaken utilized the situation in the 52nd minute, put the ball in and arranged a new three-pointer for Belgian Club Brugge.
For Aston Villa, it was the first loss after starting the Champions League with wins against Young Boys, Bayern München, and Bologna.
