Tim Sherwood: "We have been robbed"

Tim Sherwood believes his Aston Villa team deserve more than just one point from today's 2-2 draw with Sunderland.

Tim Sherwood believes his Aston Villa team deserved more than just one point in today's 2-2 draw with Sunderland.

Scott Sinclair scored twice in between goals from Yann M'Vila and Jeremain Lens, but Sherwood thinks a penalty should have been awarded when Carles Gil, who was booked for diving, went down in the penalty area.

"Anyone who watched that game knows that we should have won," Sherwood told BBC Sport. "We had 22 shots, the keeper has pulled off a 'worldy' save and we should have had a penalty. We have been robbed.

"It definitely should have been a penalty. Younes Kaboul pulls out but there's contact - it is a penalty. My team couldn't have done any more today."

Villa's next game is away to high-flying Leicester City on September 13.
