Aston Villa vs Chelsea: Tyrone Mings' shocking error for Mason Mount goal

Tyrone Mings gifted Chelsea a golden opportunity to take the lead in their Premier League clash on Sunday with an awful piece of defending.

Mason Mount was the beneficiary of Mings’ mistake – a stray header that looked initially looked simple enough to deal with.

But for whatever reason, despite being under no pressure at all, the centre-back accidentally mistimed his clearance and sent the ball travelling in the opposite direction back towards his own goal.

Mount latched onto the stray clearance and coolly slotted past Martinez.
