Stand-in keeper inspires another Rotterdam win..!

Goalkeeper Marco Bizot punches the ball away at De Kuip in Rotterdam

Emi Buendía opened the scoring in the 61st minute, bending a superb strike into the far corner a classy finish from the Argentine.

John McGinn then doubled the lead shortly after to maintain Villa's 100 per cent start in the Europa League.

Villa had Marco Bizot to thank for keeping them level in the first half. The goalkeeper, drafted into the starting XI at short notice, produced key saves to prevent the hosts from taking the lead.

First-choice keeper Emi Martínez pulled out after the warm-up due to a calf issue, which handed Bizot his fifth start of the season.
