That young girl on the “get the football on the circle” game did well.

[Cliftonville Villlain]

Taylor ffs.

[Dave P]

10 mins in and they’ve had 46 corners and 539 shots on goal. How is this still 0-0?

[Taylor]

Hey! What did I do?

[SoccerHQ]

Jack just dribbles past the whole Chelsea ten outfield players on four occasions. Passes the ball to Taylor unmarked on the six yard box and centrally.

Throw in to Chelsea.

[Border villan]

Get up El Ghazi, he hardly touched you!

[kippaxvilla2]

Setting traps I see.  Those rats are a real problem.

[Legion]

SSSSSSSSSCCCCCCCCCCCCCCOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRRRRCCCCCCCCCCCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Grealish with the goal of the season.

[Legion]

Oh, bollocks. VAR review.

[Legion]

Disallowed for his hair being 1mm offside when the initial pass was made.

[Border villan]

Jack looks despondent, could this be the last time we see him virtually in a  Villa shirt at home?

[Toronto Villa]

Didn’t make any changes at HT again. FFS

You must have lost count. Dean has already made three changes, two of them goalkeepers.

[Border villan]

Teams back out for the second half, no changes.
