Aston Villa player ratings vs Freiburg: Unai Emery is the King of the Europa League! Youri Tielemans, Emiliano Buendia and Morgan Rogers stage goal of the month competition in Istanbul as 30 years of hurt comes to an end

Emiliano Martinez (7/10):

Despite rumours that the Argentine had injured himself in the warm-up, the Argentine took to the field and, one nervy moment aside in the second half, never looked remotely like conceding.

Matty Cash (6/10):

The right-back was left walking a tight-rope after picking up an early yellow card for a reckless challenge but he handled the situation impeccably, even if his passing was poor at times.

Ezri Konsa (8/10):

A very comfortable evening for Konsa, who took care of business when required, making a couple of important clearances, while at the same time distributing the ball swiftly and accurately. The centre-back was also a threat at the other end of the field.

Pau Torres (7/10):

The Spaniard enjoyed an armchair ride alongside Konsa but also made a few crucial interventions of his own, most notably when he denied Philipp Lienhart a clear sight of goal.

Lucas Digne (6/10):

A solid showing from the left-back, who didn’t really offer much going forward, but carried out his defensive duties diligently.
