Aston Villa ruthlessly swept aside an injury-hit Norwich City to move out of the bottom three and leapfrog their opponents in the
Premier League table. It was Villa’s first away win in the Premier League this season in a game enjoyed by
Prince William and his son George.
Aston Villa’s record signing Wesley struck with two early goals as the visitors won in emphatic
fashion, and were ahead after just 15 minutes. The £22m striker has come in for criticism since his move and had just two goals from seven matches before the trip to East Anglia, but the Brazilian struck again on the half-hour mark to vitalise Villa.
