Villa Draw Blank At Ajax In Europa Conference League Last 16
Aston Villa played out a goalless draw at Ajax on Thursday in the first leg of their Europa Conference League last-16 tie which also saw both sides finish with 10 men. "It was a tough game. They are a very good side... It's only half-time (two-leg tie), and so we need to go there and cause a massive upset," said Ajax captain Jordan Henderson. Ezri Konsa was first shown red for the visitors for a second bookable offence in the 82nd minute, before Ajax's Tristan Gooijer picked up a second yellow four minutes later.
