Aston Villa secured a spot in the UEFA Europa League round of 16 with a 1-0 win over Fenerbahce, thanks to Jadon Sancho’s first goal for the club. Sancho headed Matty Cash’s cross home in the 25th minute, and Villa held on despite Fenerbahce’s late pressure.
Roma also earned a vital win, beating Stuttgart 2-0 at the Stadio Olimpico with goals from Niccolò Pisilli. This win ensures Roma will at least contest the knockout phase play-offs.
Meanwhile, Braga secured a 1-0 win over Nottingham Forest, with Ryan Yates scoring an own goal after Morgan Gibbs-White missed a penalty.
