In his fourth match with Aston Villa, Marco Asensio has scored his first goal for the Premier League side in a crucial matchup against Chelsea on Saturday at Villa Park.
Marcus Rashford was onside when he received Matty Cash’s cross. He set it up for Asensio, who managed to dig it out from under his feet and poke it over the line, despite Reece James’ attempt to keep it out. The goal was initially ruled out for offside against Rashford, but after a VAR review, it was given.
