Video: Ollie Watkins at the double for Aston Villa against high-flying Brighton
Cometh the hour cometh the man, and Brighton and Hove Albion must be sick of the sight of Aston Villa’s Ollie Watkins.
The centre-forward struck twice in the opening 21 minutes to take the sting out of Roberto De Zerbi’s exciting side.
His opener on 14 owed much to a super cross from Matty Cash but the second was all his own work.
It was a timely brace with Gareth Southgate thinking who should supplement his England squad over the next few months and ahead of the European Championship in 2024.
It's lift off for Aston Villa! ?
