“He deserves another 5years contract”, “The rest can’t be trusted” – Fans reacts after Chelsea play 0-0 draw against Aston Villa in the FA Cup
Chelsea and Aston Villa couldn’t break the deadlock in their FA Cup fourth-round match, ending in a 0-0 draw on Friday, January 26.
This means they will have to play again at Villa Park to see who moves to the next round. However, the goalless draw at Stamford Bridge drew reactions from fans.
The match had a moment of controversy early on. Blues debutant Alfie Gilchrist tried to block a shot, and the ball hit Douglas Luiz before looping into the net. But, after a VAR check, it turned out the ball hit the Villa midfielder’s hand, so the goal didn’t count.
Aston Villa’s goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez was on fire in the first half. He stopped shots from Noni Madueke and Cole Palmer and made an important save to keep out a deflection from Alex Moreno.
Villa tried hard to get a goal late in the game. Moussa Diaby, Ollie Watkins, and Matty Cash all had their chances, but Chelsea goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic kept them out.
After the goalless game, fans shared their thoughts on social media, with one surprised at the eventual outcome:
“Wtf did I just watch”
Another reserved praise for Thiago Silva’s defensive performance:
“Thiago Silva deserves another 5yr contract”
Here is a selection of their posts:
@JamalPacman: Thiago Silva deserve another contract. These kids at the back can’t be trusted

@JamalPacman: Badiashille can’t be trusted
