Premiership: Kachloul dedicates goal to deceased friend

Hassan Kachloul has dedicated his first Aston Villa goal to the memory of close friend and fellow Moroccan international Youssef Belkhoja, who died of a heart attack during a match earlier this month.

Kachloul revealed he has found it ‘‘difficult to carry on playing’’ since 24-year-old Belkhoja collapsed while taking a corner when playing for Wydad Casablanca.
