A win for Aston Villa on Tuesday evening would have put them in the driver's seat to secure a top-eight finish in their first season in the Champions League. However, defeat at Monaco means they must now win their final fixture next week at home to Celtic and hope that 16 points is enough to seal passage to the knockout stages.

Passing into the mouth of danger once and being bitten early did not scare Villa away from their desire to play the same way. When passes were crisp and accurate, they broke through Monaco lines, with Morgan Rogers, Ollie Watkins and Leon Bailey all having shooting opportunities.
