Video: Ajax defender bamboozled by Aston Villa star’s stepovers

Aston Villa are on the brink of qualifying for the quarter-finals of the Europa Conference League as Leon Bailey has made it 2-0 on aggregate with a lovely goal. 

The Premier League club came into tonight’s clash knowing a win would send them through to the next round after the first leg finished 0-0 in Amsterdam.

Villa opened the scoring tonight through a splendid Ollie Watkins header after 25 minutes and an impressive goal from Bailey has given Unai Emery’s side a comfortable lead.

The winger bamboozled the Ajax defender with stepovers before finishing clinically with his weaker right foot.
