Villa responded as Emiliano Buendia forced a low save out of Alex McCarthy - but it was a rare piece of promise in a one-sided half.
It is absolutely special to be a part of the semi-final, it's crazy. It's a massive game. So many coaches and players work their socks off their whole life and don't get a chance to be close to a semi-final.
Manage in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Although you won't really get to travel the canals of Venice in game, you can imagine yourself travelling to and from games in a gondola.
There's also Granit Xhaka and I know he gets a little bit of stick, but he does not let you down in my opinion.
In helping City lift the Premier League in 2018, the midfielder revealed how a vegan diet and mindfulness exercises helped him grow both on and off the pitch.
Real Madrid forward Karim Benzema has been found guilty of complicity in the attempted blackmail of former France team-mate Mathieu Valbuena over a sex tape and sentenced to a one-year suspended jail term by a court in Versailles.
We all have to step up and bite down on the gumshield and start swinging back. What we've produced so far hasn't been good enough and the only people who can change that is us.
Houston Dynamo FC Houston Dynamo FC the home of 2 time MLS Champion Houston Dynamo, Challenge Cup Champion Houston Dash, Houston Dynamo 2, the Dynamo Academy and Shell Energy ...
It is the kind of moment, however, that has been missing from Roberts in the five years since. It would prove, though, his only top-flight game for the club so far - and most likely ever.
And, as a defender, as long as we do not concede, we always have a chance to get results. However, while keeping clean sheets has been something of an issue for the Hammers, scoring goals from set-plays has most certainly not, as Ogbonna demonstrated at Goodison Park.
His 11 clearances ranked highest among his team, he had the joint-second most interceptions and made that crucial, potentially goal-saving, challenge on Silva.
I like to play football. It was quite unusual to hear it as everyone talks about the team and the collective.
You have to get your goalscorers on the pitch when you have to win. I'm not sure about Werner, though, I do not think it is working.
The striker composed himself and slotted bottom right for his second Premier League goal of the season.
I don't think it makes sense to loan any player out in this day and age, especially when you are going through a pandemic, to not have a recall option.

Aston Villa want to appoint Steven Gerrard as their next manager, with the Rangers boss open to the idea of moving to the Premier League.
Maupay required treatment having been caught in the face as he jostled with the Chelsea striker and could be seen protesting to the fourth official as Brighton finally got the game back under way, but by that point, the VAR check had ruled in Chelsea's favour.
It makes sense, we'll use our time wisely. When they weren't there, we all realised what the game is.
Incidents like these completely go against what sport is about and spoil the atmosphere, but most of all these comments and gestures are highly upsetting and degrading.
It was the catalyst, but at the time we didn't see that. Experience in football management is very important.
After cutting inside from the left again, his finish was not as impressive and he rolled his effort into the hands of Bentley.
In my early days I got a lot of my assists for Oli McBurnie at Swansea from the left. It's not something that's new to my game.
The problem with him is that he is given the wrong label. He is very important: I talked to him and I told him not to move from here.
We're not writing anything off. Just seven and a half years ago, Orient were on the cusp of promotion to the Championship, only to lose out to Rotherham in the 2013/14 League One play-off final.
Spurs have to win to keep their top-four hopes alive, and that could play into the hands of Mikel Arteta's side.
So after that, when he tested positive for the coronavirus, I think everyone was worried about it. But none of us felt any symptoms after that.
WIth someone like Joe Newell, he doesn't necessarily score goals but my goodness he can pass a ball.
It's easy to say after the game but, when it gets to penalties, there's only one person that's not under pressure and that's the goalie.
The 22-year-old has made 14 top-flight appearances this term, though only one of them - which came in last weekend's 1-0 defeat to Southampton - was a start.
Energetically, he was always trying to help team-mates, and I think in the last weeks, definitely the best performance by him, and a very, very important goal for us.
I think if I did play, I might find it a lot harder to be so open and honest because I know that for a lot of people, when you're in the game and you have a great team and supportive team-mates etc, it's easy to get complacent.
Speaking to GOAL as part of an exclusive, in-depth interview, Awoniyi discussed his experience of working with Salah during Liverpool’s pre-season training camp in Austria.
Steve Morison had better luck in his first game since being confirmed as Cardiff's new permanent boss, as the Bluebirds came from behind to win 2-1 at Preston.

Ronaldo's return caps big-spending summer For those Premier League clubs involved in the European Super League fiasco, the summer transfer window offered an opportunity to rebuild bridges with their fans.
Losing a player on a free transfer is becoming something of a repetitive failure for Barcelona president Juan Laporta. The club famously saw Lionel Messi switch to Paris Saint-Germain last summer after failing to meet financial regulations in La Liga, and now seem set to lose French international winger Ousmane Dembele who is out of contract in the summer of 2022.
Antonio Rudiger's gone on a free, Andreas Christensen's going to go too, they've got Thiago Silva who's outstanding, and they've got two kids in Malang Sarr and Trevoh Chalobah who are very talented, but it's going to be hard to play them week-in, week-out.
The Egyptian continues to dazzle and is undoubtedly the best player in the league so far this term. There was a sense of inevitability that he would get on the scoresheet and he was a relentless menace in the first period. He was less involved in a cagey second half but had already made some key contributions.
“It [Overmars' time at the club] has now come to a very abrupt end. It is devastating for the women who have had to deal with the behaviour,” he said.
When Laporte rose unmarked to make a mess of De Bruyne's next inviting delivery, City's hopes of a late winner faded.
