Emi Martinez claimed it was his “destiny” to win in Lille after he was Villa’s penalty shoot-out hero - despite being booked twice in Thursday’s second leg.

The Argentina international was shown his second yellow card of the night for inciting the crowd during a chaotic shoot-out in which he saved from Nabil Bentaleb and Benjamin Andre as Villa scraped through to their first European semi-final since 1982.

But that is a worry for another day after he wrote another remarkable chapter in his career, on a famous Villa night in Europe. “It feels like we are going to do something special, I don't know if it's Champions League or I don't know if it’s Conference League but we try to do everything we can to push the football club.”
