Ashley Young, Aston Villa’s 37-year-old full back, turned back the clock on Monday evening when he scored a jaw-dropping goal in a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest.
Young pounced on a loose ball outside of the Forest box in the 22nd minute and promptly put foot to boot for a shot that beat Dean Henderson low on the left side.
