Many Aston Villa fans have responded after the club account released a video of Jack Grealish thumping home Villa’s third in their 3-1 win over Brighton.

The two sides met on Wednesday in the EFL Cup third round at the American Express Stadium, where Brighton put out an extremely young side as Villa dominated across the 90 minutes.

The day after the game the Aston Villa Twitter account released a video of Jack Grealish scoring a half-volley, with the caption “How to strike a half volley. By @JackGrealish1”.

Brighton made 11 changes in the match so there can’t be huge surprises that they succumbed. Villa made a few changes, with the goals coming through Jota, Conor Hourihane and of course Grealish.

The captain came on from the bench to hit a sweet half-volley to secure their place in the next round.

Villa will now play local rivals Wolves in the next round of the cup at Villa Park.

Many fans shared their delight at Grealish’s goal, while others commented on the performance of Matt Targett at left-back, who put in the cross which led to the Grealish goal.

“He won’t be with us longer,” screamed a fan.
