Emi Martinez

Forced into just one serious save during the 90 minutes when he parried Bamford’s powerful drive. Confident in his handling when coming for crosses.

Assured 7

Ashley Young

The kind of atmosphere and game the veteran relishes. More than happy to mix it. Showed great vision with a pinpoint through ball to Watkins. Seemed to relish the challenge.

Element 7

Ezri Konsa

Sparked a mini-melee when he jumped over Rodrigo to head the ball clear. Seemed to enjoy the switch to right-back in the second half and got forward well. Villa’s best player.

Impressive 7

Tyrone Mings

The centre-back’s fine run of form continued with another strong performance, though this was not a day Villa’s backline was seriously tested after Sinisterra’s dismissal.
