Jhon Duran scored a stunning 79th-minute winner as Aston Villa defeated Bayern Munich at Villa Park. The Colombian striker, who has now scored all but one of his goals this season as a substitute, raced onto a long ball and lifted it over Manuel Neuer for a memorable victory.
The Colombian striker maintained his incredible record this season of scoring from the bench as Vincent Kompany’s men were sent packing. Duran has scored six this term and all but one of have come as a substitute as Aston Villa won the re-match of the 1982 European Cup final.
