Gary RedknappFootball AnalystРОЗБІР МАТЧУ

George Hemmings scored once and ran the show from midfield as Aston Villa thrashed Walsall 5-0 in a Club Friendly, setting up a far sterner test against FC Porto next. It was a stroll from the moment Brian Madjo opened the scoring in the 24th minute, the gulf in class between the Premier League visitors and their League Two hosts laid bare long before half-time.

The match was effectively over inside a frantic six-minute spell either side of the interval. Hemmings made it 2-0 in the 43rd minute, and Madjo struck again just before the whistle to make it 3-0 at the break. After the restart, Luka Lynch added a fourth in the 68th minute, and Aidan Borland completed the rout two minutes later, leaving Walsall with no response.

Despite the one-sided scoreline, the statistics tell a more balanced story: both sides had 50% possession, and Walsall actually earned three corners to Villa's two. Villa were simply devastating in front of goal, needing only five shots to score five times. Hemmings, rated 9.99 out of ten, was the standout midfielder for his all-action display. CheckLive's model clearly favoured Aston Villa, and the result confirmed that prediction emphatically. Villa now face FC Porto on 25 July.
