The story in brief
- Aston Villa's under-21s lost 4-1 at Crewe Alexandra in the EFL Trophy on Tuesday night.
- Three of Crewe's four goals came from a set-piece, a defensive error and a deflection.
- Max Jenner curled in a superb 85th-minute consolation, but Villa have now lost both group games.
Villa did not get outplayed at Crewe. They got punished, which is a different lesson.
Three goals, three avoidable moments
