"Watkins stated, 'It could've been different. They had a disallowed goal and if that turns and it was 1-0 and stayed that way it would've been a long way back for us. We got lucky. They played tough today.'"
"'We got the goal from the set-piece and that kind of took the sting out of the game. They were dominant before that, but just before half-time is a great time to score.'"
"'Back end of the season I'm raring to go. I could play another 90 minutes. I'm excited for what’s to come.'"
Ollie Watkins expressed his readiness for the end of the season after scoring twice in Aston Villa's 3-1 victory over Bologna in the Europa League. Despite being on the back foot for much of the match, Villa capitalized on a disallowed goal for Bologna. Konsa's header and Watkins' goals secured a strong position in the quarter-finals. Watkins, feeling fresh after being omitted from the England squad, aims to help Villa secure a top-four Premier League finish and their first trophy since 1996.
