Villa find rhythm as Rogers' brace sinks Leeds
The Straits Times
|November 24, 2025
Morgan Rogers produced two excellent finishes to inspire an Aston Villa comeback to beat Leeds 2-1 at Elland Road on Nov 23 and move into the English Premier League's top four.

Rogers, 23, has often been preferred this season by England manager Thomas Tuchel over Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham, but had struck just once this season before his second-half double.
The midfielder told Sky Sports: "We knew it wasn't the game for pretty football and nice passes. It was about how hard we wanted it and how much we were determined.
"They were at us in the first half. We brought that energy in the second half. We brought that resilience. We had to dig deep at the end."
Since his league debut in February 2024, the only players aged 23 and under who have been involved in more Premier League goals are Chelsea's Cole Palmer (44) and Arsenal's Bukayo Saka (28).
Rogers has 27 goal involvements — 14 goals, 13 assists.
