A thrilling Battle of Britain clash saw Aston Villa prevail over Celtic in a pulsating six-goal epic at Villa Park. Who impressed and who struggled in a dramatic European night in Villa Park... ASTON VILLA (4-2-3-1):. EMI MARTINEZ - 5.5: World Cup-winning goalkeeper had little to do apart from picking the ball out of his net for goals he could do little about.
MATTY CASH - 6: Bombed forward early on but withdrawn for Scotland international John McGinn after 30 minutes with suspected calf injury. EZRI KONSA - 6.5: Could do little about Celtic’s two goals and probably the best player in Aston Villa’s much-changed backline.
BOUBACAR KAMARA - 5.5: Expected to play in holding midfield but stepped in for Tyrone Mings. Sluggish when Celtic upped the tempo. LUCAS DIGNE - 5: Sloppy error almost opened the door for Hatate to score in first half. Caught napping for Celtic’s second.
Classy Morgan Rogers slams home the opener for Aston Villa in the 4-2 win over Celtic. Aston Villa boss Unai Emery went through a wide range of emotions on a thrilling evening. Adam Idah smashes home from close-range to make it 2-2 at Villa Park as Celtic rallied.
YOURI TIELEMANS - 7: Controlled the tempo of the first 30 minutes. Classy on the ball but let Hatate run off him for Celtic’s second goal. LAMARE BOGARDE - 6: Switched to full-back when Cash limped off and looked uncomfortable. Was caught out for Celtic’s first goal.
