Aston Villa Routs Norwich in Front of Prince William and Family

In front of royalty, Dean Smith's side delivered an impressive performance and defeated Norwich City 5-1 on Saturday.

Aston Villa produced a performance fit for a king in its 5-1 win over Norwich in the Premier League on Saturday.

Britain's Prince William - heir to the throne and also a big Villa fan - was in the stands at Norwich's Carrow Road stadium with Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, and their children to watch a one-sided match between two promoted teams.

Brazilian striker Wesley scored two goals, then had a penalty saved, in the first half.

Jack Grealish, Conor Hourihane and Douglas Luiz added further goals for Villa against the injury-hit home side in the second half.

Josip Drmic scored a late consolation for Norwich, which has lost five of its last six league games to slip to third-to-last place.
