Aston Villa outplayed Liverpool and won 4:2 at Villa Park, in the first match of the 37th round of the Premier League.

Unai Emery's team warmed up well for the Europa League final against Freiburg on Wednesday in Istanbul with a thrilling performance and confirmed their place in the Champions League - via the Premier League.

Liverpool's situation, on the other hand, is getting a little more complicated, as sixth-placed Bournemouth can close in on a point if they beat Manchester City at home on Tuesday.

Liverpool plays Brentford at Anfield in the final round and still has everything in their hands.

Rodgers gave the home team the lead at the end of the first half, but Van Dijk equalized as soon as the second half began.

Watkins restored the lead to Villa in the 57th minute, and their fans then watched a real rhapsody.

Watkins scored again in the 73rd minute, and Megin put the finishing touch with a fantastic goal a minute before the end.

Van Dijk's goal in injury time only softened Liverpool's defeat.
