🎥 Remembering Aston Villa's original Colombian rocket specialist
Jhon Durán has become Aston Villa's go-to man for scoring stunning long-range efforts but he isn't the first Colombian to perform that feat for the club.
His compatriot Juan Pablo Ángel racked up 44 goals during a six-year spell in the Midlands during the early 2000s and produced the occasional banger.
This effort against Chelsea in 2003 is definitely the pick of them, though.

Proof that Ángel walked so Durán could run.
