Enzo Fernandez’s quick-fire opener put Chelsea ahead at Villa Park. But Asensio netted after the interval.
Asensio then scored a last-gasp winner as his shot squirmed past Jorgensen’s woeful attempted save.
Reflecting on the game, Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca said: “It was a tough one because we didn’t deserve to lose. Even after 1-1 we had some great chances to score. In this league you have to be clinical.”
While Maresca bemoaned Jorgensen’s error, he also defended his shot-stopper. “The keeper position is very difficult. When you make a mistake it is clear for everyone [to see]. Today Filip made a mistake, but we need to stick together,” he said.
