🆘 | 7’ Cucurella fouls Jaden but referee Attwell waves play on, incredible
🥅 | 7’ Goal, 0-1, (Chelsea), Nicolas Jackson. Chelsea capitalise on Attwell’s gift, Villa are apoplectic. VAR should over turn though.
🎥 | 7’ VAR confirms the goal in record time, WTF is happening
❗| 18’ Massive Chance! Ollie Watkins one on one with ‘keeper Sanchez from John McGinn’s pass but the Chelsea stopper saves
🗒️ | Every mistake is being punished, every decision is going against us and every chance is thwarted, genuinely never seen anything like this run
💥 | 24’ Another huge error from Villa, Torres passes back to Martínez, was it intentional? It doesn’t matter Attwell awards the free kick in the area because of course he does, Villa have just about the entire team on the goalline
💥 | 25’ Villa just about keep the ball out
💥 | 32’ This is insane now, there has to be something wrong, Martínez passes straight to Nicolas Jackson in the Villa box but recovers to save at the Chelsea player’s feet. This doesn’t make any sense, why are Villa making these mistakes four or five times a game when you would expect them once or twice over an entire season
🥅 | 36’ Goal, 0-2, (Chelsea), Enzo Fernandez. Villa dead and buried in West London, to be fair that was simply a good goal.
❗| 45’+3 Chance! Ollie Watkins receives from Philogene but his shot is way too powderpuff and Sanchez collects
🕒 | 45’+7 HT Chelsea 2-0 Aston Villa
🗒️ | A truly woeful first half performance from Villa ends. We need to clear our minds and win the second half before this becomes a full on crisis.
🔁 | 46’ It gets worse, a lot worse. Sub off, Emiliano Martínez, Sub on, Robin Olsen
🟨 | 54’ Booking, Jaden Philogene-Bidace
🟨 | 61’ Booking, Matty Cash
🔁 | 62’ Sub off, Boubacar Kamara, Sub on, Ross Barkley
💥 | 65’ Another poor mistake, this time Ezri Konsa, lets Nicolas Jackson in, Olsen kind of saves but it’s more messy play
🔁 | 66’ Sub off, Morgan Rogers, Sub on, Jhon Durán
🔁 | 66’ Sub off, Jaden Philogene-Bidace, Sub on, Leon Bailey
❗| 73’ Massive Chance! When the luck’s against you… Ross Barkley’s goal bound header is deflected clear by Colwill
🥅 | 83’ Goal, 0-3, (Chelsea), Cole Palmer. Oh Villa!
🔁 | 84’ Sub off, Ollie Watkins, Sub on, Emiliano Buendía
🗒️ | And you just know Joao Felix will score
🗒️ | Fair play to Chelsea, the first goal shouldn’t have been, but thereafter it’s been Villa on a suicide mission.
💥 | 90’+6 Where the hell has 6’ injury time come from?
💥 | Now 7’
🕒 | 90’+7 FT Chelsea 3-0 Aston Villa
