EPL: Asensio’s double compound more woes on Chelsea at Villa
@Source: punchng.com
Marco Asensio’s first goals for Aston Villa clinched a dramatic 2-1 win against spluttering Chelsea after a costly blunder from Blues keeper Filip Jorgensen. Enzo Fernandez’s quick-fire opener put Chelsea ahead at Villa Park in a battle between top four hopefuls chasing qualification for next season’s Champions League. But Asensio, who signed on loan from Paris Saint-Germain earlier in February, netted after the interval when his goal was initially disallowed for offside before being given by VAR. The former Real Madrid forward followed his equaliser with Villa’s last-gasp winner as his shot squirmed past Jorgensen’s woeful attempted save. Chelsea have been beaten four times in their last five games in all competitions, leaving them one point adrift of the top four in sixth place.
