Senegal international Nicolas Jackson, 25, scored his first goal in the Premier League in an Aston Villa shirt. The Villans defeated Tottenham 3-1.

A stunning goal grabs the spotlight

Having joined last August from Chelsea for more than €55 million, the former Bayern Munich striker continues to improve his level with the Villans. The goal was superb. Nicolas Jackson first controlled the ball with his chest before striking it with his right foot in an exceptional finish.

A good start

After opening his account in the Champions League during the 3-2 win over Club Brugge, Jackson repeated the feat in the league. On Saturday, during the fifth round of the Premier League, he helped secure Aston Villa’s convincing 3-1 victory over visitors Tottenham.

This confirms his good form at present, while the goal should finally launch his adventure at Villa Park. Aston Villa claimed their first win of the season in the Premier League, providing a major boost of relief!
