Martinez's pinpoint clearance, Sancho's backheel, and McGinn's composed finish, the elements of a great opener, before Leon Bailey finished the tie off. We look back at the Villa Park conclusion to the Lille two-legged Europa League tie — including a first half at Villa Park so deliberately passive that even those in the ground were losing the will to watch — and discuss the highlights of a much improved second half performance. There is also a look at the quarter-final draw. Bologna are the opponents, but Porto, currently crushing the Portuguese league, having won 22 of 26 games, loom as the most dangerous side left in the competition. Nottingham Forest face them in the other quarter-final in Villa's side of the draw. Elsewhere: there's talk of croissant mutations, the Premier League £30 away ticket cap being extended, the Bologna quarter-final pricing that brought on a familiar fury, Lindelof's Batman mask and the case for him being the signing of the season, and a tifo poem that nobody is claiming authorship of. It's West Ham on Sunday, with an international break following straight after. Then the final chapter of a twin-prong attack for Champions League football begins in earnest.  UTV Listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
