Aston Villa Rally Past Chelsea with Late Marco Asensio Winner

Marcus Rashford's second-half impact helps Villa end winless streak and close the gap on Chelsea in the Premier League standings.

Aston Villa secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over Chelsea at Villa Park, ending their five-game winless run in the Premier League.
Substitute Marcus Rashford provided assists for both Marco Asensio goals, including a decisive late strike that capitalized on a costly error by Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jörgensen.
Chelsea initially took the lead through Enzo Fernández's early goal, but failed to capitalize on several key chances to extend their advantage.
The defeat marks Chelsea's third consecutive loss and leaves them with just two wins in their last ten league matches, jeopardizing their top-four hopes.
Villa's win narrows the gap between the two teams to just one point, keeping both sides in contention for European qualification as the season intensifies.
