Villa comprehensively defeated Derby in a one-sided match in the FA Premier Reserve League.

Kevin MacDonald's side went in 2-0 up at half-time after cracking efforts from James Collins and Wayne Routledge.

The young quartet of Nathan Delfouneso, Marc Albrighton, Nathan Baker and Andreas Weimann completed the scoring in the second half.

Derby created the first opening on three minutes as there was a scramble in the box but Villa managed to clear the danger.

Villa opened the scoring two minutes later, when Delfouneso headed the ball back across goal and Collins volleyed home.

Routledge won a corner on nine and fired the ball into the box only to see Lichaj's header slam into the bar.

Beardsley received a straight red card on 10 after a horror, two-footed tackle on Lund.

Routledge scored a wonder goal on 17, volleying home Bannan's expert centre.

Routledge hit a superb crossfield pass to Bannan on 25 but his cross was too far for Collins to connect.

Bannan showed great control on 28 and laid a ball through to Delfouneso who rounded the keeper before passing to Collins. He, in turn, passed to Routledge but the winger's shot was blocked.

Delfouneso saw a header fly over the bar on 39 after a great ball in from Routledge.

Osbourne sent a wonderful through ball to Delfouneso on 50 and the striker drew the keeper before placing the ball into the bottom corner to make it 3-0.

Villa thought they had a fourth on 53 when Delfouneso headed home an Osbourne cross but the assistant referee had flagged for offside.

Villa made a double substitution on 72 as Albrighton and Weimann replaced Collins and Delfouneso respectively.

Albrighton made it 4-0 three minutes later as he hammered home a shot after a goalmouth scramble.

Routledge was replaced by Hofbauer on 77 and five minutes later, Baker headed home to make it 5-0 to the away side.
