John McGinn netted the decisive goal within thirteen minutes at Villa Park. Ollie Watkins failed to convert a penalty opportunity during the second half. The English club had struggled through five winless Premier League matches before this European success. Rangers suffered another setback with a 1-0 home loss against Genk at Ibrox Stadium. Mohamed Diomande received a red card before halftime for dangerous play. Oh Hyeon-Gyu scored the winning goal ten minutes after the restart. Manager Russell Martin faces mounting pressure after eight consecutive matches without victory across domestic and European competitions. [/QUOTE]
