Marcus Rashford hailed as Aston Villa's new 'hero' after setting up both goals and inspiring comeback in dramatic 2-1 win over Chelsea

Marcus Rashford has been hailed as Aston Villa's new 'hero' after coming off the bench to set up both of their goals in their 2-1 victory over Chelsea.

Super sub Rashford was brought on with Villa trailing at half-time and twice set up Marco Asensio, including for his dramatic 89th-minute winner.

The forward, signed on loan from Manchester United in January after a falling out with Ruben Amorim, has enjoyed an eye-catching start to life in the Midlands and Jamie Redknapp believes his impact on Saturday will have impressed supporters.
