Villa goalkeeper suspended for Europa Conference League semi-final

Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez will be suspended for their Europa Conference League semi-final with Olympiacos.

There was confusion last night, when he was not sent off after receiving a second yellow card during the penalty shoot-out part of their win at Lille.

But that's because of a little known rule, where cautions don't extend past extra-time.
