Marcus Rashford was introduced after the break when Emery tried to give a few more attacks to his side.

Neto, who turned out to be Chelsea’s light spark at night, tried the post before testing Emi Martinez with low strikes later.

But shortly afterwards, Villa found her balance with her lye from Manchester United, who played an important role.
