In a dramatic Premier League match at Villa Park, Aston Villa and Chelsea ended in a 2-2 draw. Aston Villa initially took a 2-0 lead in the first half, capitalizing on Chelsea's defensive lapses. Chelsea, however, mounted a strong comeback in the second half, scoring twice to level the score. The match saw a controversial moment in the 95th minute when Chelsea's Axel Disasi scored what appeared to be a late winner, but the goal was disallowed by VAR due to a foul by Benoit Badiashile in the build-up. The decision left Chelsea players and fans frustrated as they were denied a victory. Chelsea's second half performance was notably more aggressive and effective, and Axel Disasi's disallowed goal was a critical moment.

Chelsea totally different team second half. Far hungrier, quicker in transition, great comeback. Gallagher set the tone. Denied late winner by VAR spotting a foul. Players furious. #CFC still take a point and belief from this. #AVLCHE

What drama at Villa Park. Aston Villa led 2-0 at half-time. Chelsea scored twice in the second half to level the score and thought they had a winner — but Axel Disasi’s goal was disallowed for Benoit Badiashile’s foul in the build-up. #AVLCHE | #AVFC | #CFC https://t.co/pQbwPiI3NZ
FT: #AVFC 2-2 Chelsea VAR comes to Villa's rescue at the end to come away with a point. The fact Villa were 2-0 up at half time shows how oddly passive they were. Low possession, low control and panic stations - played like it was the 90th minute for 45 minutes
🚨 It's all over at Villa Park Aston Villa 2-2 Chelsea 🤝 What a wild ending! 🤯 What did you make of that game? 🤔
A hectic few moments near the end at Villa Park! 😮 Cole Palmer capitalises on some uncertainty at the back before seeing his shot saved by Robin Olsen ❌ Axel Disasi thinks he has a late winner, but the goal is ruled out due to a push in the build-up #AVLCHE
Chelsea score. 3-2, 95th minute #AVFC
That's half-time. #AVFC lead 2-0. #CFC had their chances and had most of the possession...but the two goals they have conceded were far too easy and now Villa can just pick them off on the break. #AVLCHE
A solid showing from @AVFCOfficial in the first half has them two goals ahead at the break! Will @ChelseaFC find a response once we're back under way? #AVLCHE https://t.co/Dqu1egS3a0
⏰ HT at Villa Park Aston Villa 2-0 Chelsea! 🔥 What did you make of that half? 🤔
HT: #AVFC 2-0 Chelsea Around 25% possession, subdued for long spells and happy to let Chelsea onto them, but Villa are a joy attacking in full flow. Sweeping, switch-of-play moves for both goals & trying to hurt Chelsea down the flanks (long balls to FBs & Bailey) & it's working
2-0 #AVFC. It doesn't reflect the way the first half has gone but #CFC being punished for not being good enough at both ends of the pitch. #AVLCHE
Jackson scores but is it offside? #AVLCHE
