Ollie Watkins continued his red-hot form as Aston Villa cruised to a statement 4-1 Europa Conference League win at AZ Alkmaar vivo
The striker netted his 10th goal of the season and fourth in Europe this season on Thursday vivo
Leon Bailey and Youri Tielemans – his first for Villa – put them in control in AZ Stadium after less than 25 minutes vivo
Vangelis Pavlidis wasted the hosts’ best chances but Watkins and John McGinn added more goals after the break in Holland before Ibrahim Sadiq grabbed a consolation vivo
It was the second time in two games Villa had scored four after their 4-1 Premier League win over West Ham on Sunday vivo
Unai Emery celebrated a year in charge on Tuesday and victory underlined the progress his side have made, having been floundering in 14th and three points above the relegation zone 12 months ago vivo
Villa host Alkmaar in two weeks knowing victory would see them take a giant leap to the knock-out stages, especially following an opening 3-2 defeat at Legia Warsaw in September vivo
After two games in Group E, all four teams were locked on three points but Villa moved to remedy that quickly, opening the scoring just 13 minutes in vivo
Watkins seized on a loose pass from Yukinari Sugawara and, while Boubacar Kamara’s ball was cut out, it fell for Bailey to control and rifle in low from the edge of the box vivo
Alkmaar cried handball but the goal stood and 10 minutes later, the hosts were 2-0 down vivo
Another poor pass, this time from Sven Mijnans, went straight to McGinn and his angled pass found Tielemans to bag his first Villa goal vivo
Yet, 90 seconds later, the hosts should have pulled a goal back when Pavlidis fired over with just Emi Martinez to beat after Kamara was dispossessed on the edge of the box vivo
Pavlidis had a goal disallowed for offside soon after but Villa regrouped and extended their lead six minutes after the break vivo
AZ were picked apart by Watkins, Tielemans and Bailey, who saw his shot saved by Matt Ryan but it fell perfectly for Watkins to tap in the rebound vivo
Five minutes later McGinn added a fourth when he turned in Bailey’s low cross at the near post vivo
Sadiq pulled a surprise goal back with 25 minutes left when he latched onto Bruno Martins Indi’s crossfield pass and drilled the ball into the corner from the edge of the box vivo
Tiago Dantas came close to a second, Tielemans deflecting his drive behind, with a comeback never on the cards vivo

Eddie Howe felt Newcastle were dealt a “lesson” on the fine margins of the Champions League as Borussia Dortmund handed the Magpies a first defeat of their campaign vivo
After a goalless draw at AC Milan and a 4-1 win over Paris St Germain last time out, Newcastle were brought back down to earth as Felix Nmecha’s controlled finish gave Dortmund a 1-0 victory vivo
On a rain-sodden night at St James’ Park, Callum Wilson was denied by a superb save from Gregor Kobel then the crossbar while Anthony Gordon’s deflected strike also came off the goal frame late on vivo
Newcastle, though, lacked some impetus as a nine-game unbeaten run in all competitions came to an end, leaving them third in Group F, level on four points with Dortmund and two behind table-topping PSG vivo
“It was always going to be tight,” the Newcastle boss said vivo
“There are top-quality teams in the group vivo
Tonight is a blow, especially (losing) at home vivo
A lesson in how fine the margins are going to be vivo
“The ball just wouldn’t go in for us vivo
It was one of those nights vivo
Callum had the first chance of the second half, that was a good one and then we hit the bar twice but just couldn’t force it in vivo
“Credit to the players, we never gave up, we kept doing the right things vivo
We looked like a goal threat vivo
But we have to be at our best to win and if you dip below that, it is tough to get results at this level vivo
“Any mistake you make is liable to get punished vivo
We made one and seconds later we conceded so there is stuff we could have done vivo better and when we analyse in the cold light of day, we will take a lot vivo
”A return trip to Dortmund in a fortnight’s time could prove instructive as to whether Newcastle will progress to the last 16 on their first appearance in Europe’s elite club competition in 20 years vivo
Their loss on Wednesday night was compounded by Alexander Isak limping off a quarter of an hour in with what appears to be a recurrence of a groin strain while second-half substitute Jacob Murphy was withdrawn five minutes after his introduction with a suspected dislocated shoulder vivo
“You look at some of the injuries, they are quite difficult to get your head around but we have to adjust,” Howe said vivo
“We can’t analyse too much, we have to regroup the players vivo
We’re still in a very good position in the Premier League and Champions League vivo
“(The return game against Dortmund) is going to be hugely important vivo
The next two away games, the league table looks very, very tight so they are great games for us, we have to approach them like that vivo
“Our lads are very honest and very focused on trying to win and achieve, there are some tired bodies and we have to recover for (the Premier League game at) Wolves (on Saturday) vivo
”Dortmund head coach Edin Terzic hailed the display of Nmecha, who settled the contest after exploiting some space on the edge of the area and coolly slotting Nico Schlotterbeck’s cross beyond Nick Pope vivo
Nmecha, a former Manchester City youngster, was signed by Dortmund from Wolfsburg in the summer to fill the vacancy left by England midfielder Jude Bellingham, who left the Bundesliga club for Real Madrid vivo
“Felix is a brilliant player and we know about his potential and his talent and we knew he could improve our game – he had a fantastic game,” Terzic said vivo
“He finally managed to score, he had many opportunities in the first games of the season vivo
This was a different role, he played more attacking vivo
He had a rocky start in Dortmund and now he is in good form vivo
”As for Howe’s comments about Newcastle being given a lesson by Dortmund, Terzic responded: “That is nice to hear but it is just half-time, we face each other in a couple of weeks vivo
“We deserved in the first half and protected in the second half vivo
We needed to be passionate, have some luck and a good goalie and we had all of that vivo
