Teen star Jimoh-Aloba in dreamland

JAMALDEEN JIMOH-ALOBA scored his first Aston Villa goal to help Unai Emery’s side secure a top-two finish in the league phase of the Europa League.

The 19-year-old climbed off the bench to net late on as Villa came from two goals down to win and give themselves home advantage in the second legs of the knockout games all the way to the final.

Karim Konate opened the scoring for RB Salzburg in the first half, before Moussa Yeo doubled the lead early in the second period.
