Tielemans pleased with 'tough' Villa win against Fulham

Youri Tielemans was happy being part of Aston Villa's friendly win against Fulham in Orlando.

Villa won 2-0 with summer signing Tielemans enjoying a runout.

“It was a tough game," he said.

“They play really good football. We tried to put our game in place and had some really good times in the game.

“We scored two goals and didn't concede, so it's really positive looking forward.

“Especially with the last game when we were 2-0 up and unfortunately gave it away and got a draw, it's really important to move forward and win games."

He added: “The whole team has been working really hard since day one.

“You can see the rewards today – we had some really good ball possession, some really good actions and I think we can do even better, which is really positive."
