In the second round of the Champions League, Colombian forward Duran once again made an impact as a substitute, ultimately helping Villa secure a surprising 1-0 home victory against Bayern Munich.
Previously, Duran had already become headline news for scoring in three consecutive Premier League matches as a substitute. Tonight, this 20-year-old Colombian forward scored a brilliant 25-yard lob in the Champions League match against Bayern Munich, helping his team win the Champions League game. This is the most glorious moment of his career so far and further cements his status as Villa’s super sub.
Duran was only brought on by head coach Emery in the 70th minute of the game, but he scored for Villa nine minutes later. This is his fifth goal in a combined total of eight appearances (all as a substitute) in both the Champions League and the Premier League this season, averaging a goal every 41.4 minutes in these two competitions. If we include his performance in the League Cup match against Wycombe Wanderers (his only start this season where he also scored a goal), Duran averages a goal every 48 minutes across all competitions this season.
