It was his second goal for Villa since his move from Roma and he said afterwards: "It feels like a dream to come back and play for this club again.

"I'm happy to be here and bring extra energy.

"I had to sniff around the box, be alert, be ready. Luckily for us, I got the goal - it was in front of some of the best supporters in the world."

Abraham insists the draw wasn't a setback in their title hopes.

"Who knows what can happen? We are not too far from Arsenal who are at the top. Unfortunately today we didn't get the win but we just have to keep pushing," he said.

"When I first arrived I spoke with a few of the boys, and watching from afar you can see that the team has a lot of qualities. We're delighted to be where we are today but we are so close, so we have to just keep pushing and keep believing in ourselves.

"I'm happy to be back home. I just need to find myself a house!"
