John McGinn's late goal gives Villa an important victory

It looks like Villa's Europa Conference League campaign would continue to stutter until then after the hosts were left frustrated by their organised and combative opponents, who refused to buckle until stoppage time. Despite dominating, Villa struggled to break Mostar down and had a penalty call reversed in the second half. Referee Urs Schnyder changed his decision to award a spot-kick for handball after replays showed Ollie Watkins' header hit Slobodan Jakovljevic in the face. Nemanja Bilbija wasted the visitors' best opening in the first half as the Bosnian champions fell just short in the Group E clash.
