Goals from Mathis Suray and Mats Deijl gave the victory to Go Ahead Eagles.\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Buend\u00eda missed a crucial penalty in the 77th minute.<\/li>\n<li>Aston Villa have missed six penalties in the last 12 months.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\nBuend\u00eda&#8217;s penalty miss from the eleven meters added to a worrying statistic for the team, which has missed six penalties in the last year. Ollie Watkins also missed a penalty against Bologna at the beginning of the season, and the team lost a penalty shootout against Brentford in the Carabao Cup last month.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>Today the responsibility was Emiliano Buend\u00eda&#8217;s.

He highlighted the difficulty of playing away from home and the unpredictability of the sport.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>Today he showed us how difficult it is to play in Europe, to play away from home.
