Unai Emery labelled Aston Villa's draw with Burnley as "a good point but not enough," despite it moving them one step closer to securing Champions League qualification. 

Villa, fresh off booking their place in the Europa League final in midweek, came from behind to seal a 2-2 draw at Turf Moor, with Ross Barkley cancelling out Jaidon Anthony's opener in an entertaining first half. 

Ollie Watkins put Villa ahead in the second half, but Zian Flemming quickly levelled the scores in a fine move, securing the Clarets' first Premier League point since March 14. 

The visitors dominated possession for much of the match and were denied a stoppage-time penalty as Emiliano Buendia was felled inside the box by Kyle Walker, leaving Emery slightly frustrated, though he maintained his pride in Villa's positive season. 

"Overall we dominated and had the chances to score," Emery told Sky Sports. "It's a good point but not enough for us. 

"I think we deserved more but we needed to be more clinical. We were attacking more in their half than defending in ours, but we conceded three clear chances and conceded two. 

"It's very difficult to finish in the top five but at the moment we can feel so proud of what we are doing. Overall it's something fantastic. 

"We keep going forward and play against Liverpool on Friday now. We are excited for our future matches, a final in the Europa League and Manchester City. Wow!" 

Despite falling behind after just eight minutes to Anthony's opener, Villa fought back to earn a point.

Emery's side have now gained 20 points from losing positions in the league this year – the most of any side and their second-most in a single campaign in the competition after 1993-94 (21).

Watkins, meanwhile, brought up a historic landmark for Villa, striking the club's 1500th goal in the Premier League and making them the ninth side to hit that figure. 

On Watkins' good form, Emery added: "He is doing fantastic, he is a fighter. 

"Three months ago, he was a little down but we always have conversations about being consistent and working for the team every match. Now he is getting the numbers." 

Burnley, meanwhile, were in action for the first time since their relegation was confirmed, and they turned out a fine performance, much to the delight of the Turf Moor faithful. 

Despite fighting back to secure a draw, Sunday's result extended the Clarets' winless home run in the Premier League to 14 matches (D5 L9) – now their joint-longest ever run without a home league win in club history, equalling their run of 14 between February to October 2021. 

"Really pleased with the result today, I'm happy for them as a group," interim boss Michael Jackson told Sky Sports.  

"What's done is done. What I've just said to them there is 'don't let anyone tell you that you can't do anything.' A lot of people keep doubting them, but they've come back today, and they've done well. 

"The players need to give something for themselves. Football is about the players, and we're here to help and guide them. They have to go and play the game."
