Emi Martinez breaks unwanted all-time Premier League record in Aston Villa draw vs Liverpool

Emiliano Martinez broke a Premier League record that may not be beaten in history.

Emiliano Martinez has broken an unwanted all-time Premier League record after Aston Villa's 3-3 draw with Liverpool.

Villa came from 3-1 down to claim a crucial point in their Champions League quest after a late brace from Jhon Duran.

Their European football fate is not yet secured as Spurs can still mathematically catch them but Unai Emery's side are still in a strong position going into the final game of the season against in-form Crystal Palace.

No-one will have been happier to see the late fight-back than Villa shotstopper Martinez, who produced an error of epic proportions.

Just two minutes into the game at Villa Park, the Argentine dropped the ball into his own net after a Harvey Elliott cross deflected off Pau Torres.

The ball spun away from the ex Arsenal man, who inadvertently knocked the ball in trying to desperately trying to retrieve it.

It went down as a Martinez own goal and the World Cup winner was understandably confused as to what has just happened.

And it was even worse for the 'keeper as he now holds one of the most unwanted records in the history of the Premier League.

As highlighted by TNT Sports, Martinez is the only goalkeeper to have scored three own goals in the top flight since it became the Premier League in 1992.

And they have all happened in the past three years. Martinez put through his own net against Manchester United in 2022, before the ball cannoned off the crossbar and off the back of him against former club Arsenal last term.

The Liverpool gaffe completed his hat-trick and came on a night where Gary Neville put him in his Premier League Team of the Season.

Taking to Instagram after the draw, Martinez wrote: "Last home game of the season it's always special to feel all your love and passion. It's a pleasure to play for this football club we have got 1 more final."
