He’s just unstoppable, isn’t he? Too bad his colleagues are just not on the same level.Jhon Duran is in perfect form and he has proved that once again on Saturday night, as he netted for Aston Villa in a shocking 1-2 loss to Nottingham Forest. That has been his sixth Premier League goal, along with three in the Champions League.Jhon Durán PL goals:6 — This season5 — All of last season pic.twitter.com/WUBrpvK8ZZ— StatMuse FC (@statmusefc) December 14, 2024 He found the back of the net in midweek, in a 3-2 away win at RB Leipzig, and also scored a crucial one for the massive victory against Bayern Munich (1-0) back in October.Before that, the 21-year-old Colombian striker enjoyed a remarkable September, as his goal against Everton was named BBC Goal of the Month for September. Also, Duran was named Aston Villa’s player of the month for September, and his goal against Everton was also awarded the official Premier League Goal of the Month award for that month.NEVER. SAY. DIE. ❤️ pic.twitter.com/58NSyAbzLW— Nottingham Forest (@NFFC) December 14, 2024 Unai Emery had been using him as a super-sub for quite long, but in the meantime Duran has established himself as one of the crucial members of the starting XI.Thanks to his brilliant second half header at the City Ground tonight, the Villains were so close to a triumph before a shocking late collapse. Emery subbed Duran off and focused on too much on defending. And he paid the price for that.First, impeccable Forest defender Nikola Milenkovic levelled the score near the end with a little help of Villa’s keeper Dibu Martinez, who reacted clumsily on the touchline. A few minutes later, deep into the stoppage time, Anthony Elanga scored a winner to annul that Duran’s superb display.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 15SaturdayArsenal – Everton 0-0Liverpool – Fulham 2-2 (0-1)/Gakpo 47, Jota 86 – Pereira 11, Muniz 76/Newcastle – Leicester 3-0 (1-0)/Murphy 30,60, Bruno 48, Isak 50/Wolverhampton – Ipswich 1-2 (0-1)/Cunha 72 – Doherty 15 og, Taylor 90+3/Nott.
