    When you learn a new law of the game

    Just caught up with the Lille vs Villa highlights.

    Villa’s GK Emi Martinez was booked during the game and then booked during the penalty competition.

    I never realised yellows are not carried over in such a circumstance. Obviously, he saved Lille’s fifth penalty to send Villa through.

    Every day is a school day.

    It was a crazy situation - I tuned in to watch just the penalty shoot-out. Martinez is some character that I am sure all opposition fans hate - though Villa fans will love him. He ended up of course being the hero - the first save was particularly brilliant.

    Yes he seems a right arsehole.

    The bloke needs investigating imo he has missed 2 Villa games on the trot at Man City in very odd circumstances.

    Yeah, technically the game has ended after extra time final whistle has gone, the penalty shootout it purely there to decide who goes through.
