The decision was, of course, greeted by huge protests from the travelling fans and received with a big cheer from Villa supporters. A number of Chelsea players vented their frustration at the call, which continued after the full-time whistle.

A seething Madueke said after the game: «Should it have been three points? Yes. Do I think the goal should have stood? Yes. Nothing else to say about the situation.

»We need to play better at times in phases of the game. We have an abundance of quality and when we fire we're a match for any team. The last game was terrible. For 70 minutes today the team were outstanding.

«It's a process. I'm proud of the team today. We beat them here earlier in the season as well. We wanted to come here and win but it wasn't to be.»
