    Aston Villa 2-4 Olympiakos

    Aston Villa captain John McGinn faced up to a chaotic Europa Conference League semi-final first-leg loss to Olympiakos, and said: "Everything that could have gone wrong, did."

    Ayoub El Kaabi scored a hat-trick for the visitors, netting twice early on.

    Ollie Watkins reduced the deficit for Unai Emery's side and Moussa Diaby equalised moments after the interval.

    Olympiakos roared back in front with an El Kaabi penalty and a deflected strike from Santiago Hezze.

    Douglas Luiz missed a late penalty, meaning Villa must overturn a two-goal deficit in the second leg in Piraeus on 9 May to reach their first European final since 1982.
