'That's a foul by Grealish trying to initiate contact all day long': Chelsea fans slam decision to allow Anwar El Ghazi's equaliser for Aston Villa, insisting Andreas Christensen was fouled

Chelsea fans have questioned whether Aston Villa's equaliser against them should have stood, due to a foul on Andreas Christensen in the build-up.

The Blues had taken the lead through Olivier Giroud in the first-half, only for Anwar El Ghazi to bag an equaliser just after half-time.

El Ghazi's goal however brought some controversy due to a coming together involving Christensen and Jack Grealish in the build-up.
