Teenage forward Brian Madjo marked his long-awaited Aston Villa debut with a goal, despite the club losing to Paris St-Germain in the Uefa Super Cup.
According to BBC News, the 17-year-old had waited eight months for his first taste of competitive first-team football before finally getting his chance against the French champions. Madjo made the most of the opportunity, finding the net on his first appearance for Villa's senior side.
While the result went PSG's way, the emergence of Madjo will offer Villa fans a promising subplot from the defeat, with the young striker showing no signs of nerves on such a high-profile stage. Details on his involvement and the wider context of Villa's build-up to the game were not elaborated on in the report, but his goal stands as an immediate marker of intent from a player evidently highly rated behind the scenes at the club.
