ASTON VILLAAlly McCoist wowed by jhon duran vision in Aston Villa v Bolognaby Oliver Whitman 23 October 2024
Aston Villa claimed a 2-0 win over Serie A outfit Bologna to move to the top of the UEFA Champions League log. The Villains have won all three games in Europe’s premier competition without conceding.
Before the clash, head coach Unai Emery reiterated that he wants his side competing for silverware and rubbing shoulders with the big boys.
His team delivered on the pitch. Following a 50/50 first half, Villa took the lead after the break through John McGinn, who marked his return to the team with a goal.
Minutes later, Villa striker Jhon Duran doubled that lead, turning home a delightful ball from Morgan Rogers to ensure all three points went to the Premier League side.
Duran finally got to start a game this season and delivered the goods with his seventh goal for Villa in about 405 minutes of playing time. He is currently averaging a goal every 58 minutes.
Another player who had an outstanding game was midfielder Youri Tielemans, who showed his extensive passing range against the Serie A outfit.
Jhon Duran goal was particularly special, as the teenager scored arguably the goal of the tournament as he cut inside and curled one into the net.
However, the commentary following jhon Duran wonder goal has raised eyebrows on social media, with BBC commentator Steve Wilson’s ‘sweet little 20’ comment leaving some viewers completely baffled.
One fan wrote: “‘Sweet little 20’ was the weirdest way of putting it. Didn’t like that bit of commentary.”
Another added: “The BBC commentator – ‘sweet little 20’ was not a wise choice of words.”
A third posted to X: “jhon Duran, there’s youthful confidence right there, pick that one out what a finish out of nowhere but Steve Wilson’s ‘sweet little 20’ line on @BBCSport commentary was beyond creepy.”
A fourth added: “Sweet little 20 is terrible commentary. I’m sorry
