Roger's Joyful Performance Leads Villa to Victory Over Fulham - Paul Vegas

Rogers reflected on the game, stating: "Although they scored early on, we regrouped and took control for the majority of the match. We could have capitalized on more opportunities, but in the second half, we really stepped up our game and earned the victory."

"It was massive to respond how we did so quickly. It helped settle the nerves and we were generally playing well and to get it so quick did help."

On Emiliano Martinez's penalty save from Andreas Pereira, Rogers also said: "That's why he's the best. That's what he does. If it goes 2-1 anything can happen in the game.

"After the international break you start fresh with a clean slate and to get the win is massive. We have an important week and it's just the start of it."
