    Who would have thought that Villa may be the Premier League’s only hope in Europe! Fair play to them and equal best of luck for LIV and WHU for the next 20 odd minutes. Domestic rivalries are suspended for now!

    West Ham can't build as smoothly as they were doing in the first half. Mohammed Kudus dribbles down the left and tries to start a counter, but he's got no support and eventually gives the ball away.

    The fact that Liverpool can't score from open play in their last few games is getting embarrassing now.

    Charlie

    Liverpool's season was effectively over when owners made the mistake of letting Klopp announce his departure before the end. Terrible decision which clearly affected the players performances.

    Good play by Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk to put his fellow Dutchman Teun Koopmeiners off just as the Atalanta player is shooting from a tightish angle.

    Atalanta have truly outplayed Liverpool in both legs. Their closing down, pace and energy is just higher than Liverpool's.

  8. 'I am very proud' of Martinezpublished at 21:35 British Summer Time 18 April

    FT: Lille 2-1 Aston Villa (agg: 3-3, 3-4 penalties)

    Aston Villa

    Aston Villa boss Unai Emery on Emiliano Martinez: "He is very important for us. He has his personality and his personality in the dressing room is very important because he is a leader with his experiences. He has a really brilliant mentality.

    "And then on the pitch he has his personality and he played fantastic. He saved two penalty shots so of course I am very proud of him. I am very proud of all the players."

    On whether he and his players thought Martinez had been sent off in the shoot out: "Yes. But the rules are like that. Yesterday you [the media] were all asking about me about the reception he will get here in France and you could see it throughout the game. He is very experienced and he was trying to control his emotions but the supporters were pushing him. I believe in him and he is mature but with personality. He is always under his own control."

  9. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:35 British Summer Time 18 April

    West Ham are frustrated, they can feel this tie beginning to slip away from them.

    Joe Gomez is getting ready to come on, I wonder if Trent is coming off.

    In his programme notes tonight, West Ham boss David Moyes said his team would need to suffer if they were to get the result they want.

    We are in one of those periods now.

    Bayer Leverkusen have got on top. They look the more likely scorers and West Ham are being wasteful with their attacking moves.

    It is crucial the home side get through this period to allow them to go for a big ending.

    We know Bayer Leverkusen have been masters at late goals. But don't forgot Jarrod Bowen got one to win the Europa Conference League last season.

    Lukasz Fabianski is almost fooled by a mishit cross from Jeremie Frimpong very nearly creeps in at the near post.

    The Polish stopper scrambles, gets to the ball and palms it out for a corner.

    The Hammers then clear the set-piece.

    Diogo Jota has scored nine goals in 12 Europa League appearances, despite only starting five of those.

    Mo Salah has not played to the highest level of what he can do. This is a statement of intent from Jurgen Klopp, he will change the shape slightly.
