Jhon Duran came off the bench to score the winner and deliver one of Aston Villa's most famous victories on Wednesday night when they beat Bayern Munich 1-0 at Villa Park

In July, Duran was the subject of a formal bid from West Ham, who offered £30m plus teenager Lewis Orford. Villa did not accept the deal and launched an internal investigation into Duran’s conduct when he crossed his arms during an Instagram live video to his followers, seemingly mimicking the Hammers gesture.

An echo of the greatest night in Aston Villa’s history but the clearest note was of a hopeful future: under Unai Emery, a modern giant of European football fell at Villa Park at the first time of asking.
