THE WORLD’S NUMBER ONE! ☝🏼

If only the Lille fans realised booing Emi just increases his powers.

Boca Juniors fan from Buenos Aires, now supporting Aston Villa! This kind of games is what makes football so good, congrats lads!

Villa is adding many fans here in Argentina! Let's go Villa!!

Emi has saved 10 of the last 24 shots faced in his last 5 penalty shootouts. He's a Villa Hero 💜💙

Emi never disappointed you....❤ Love from Bangladesh.

Mi villano favorito? El Dibu Martinez. Vamos Villa.!!!!! Vamos villanos. Saludos desde Argentina siempre alentando. 🇦🇷🇦🇷

i’m studying in paris right now and watched this in a pub. was chatting to lille and marseille fans all night they were class but i could really feel the hatred for emi from every single one of them by the end of the shootout it was hilarious

Congratulations villa from a newcastle fan

Salutes from Buenos Aires! Go Villa!!💥

I'm from new Zealand 🇳🇿 Martinez is the best keeper. Up The Villa

Fifth consecutive penalty shootout he wins. In the previous 4 (2020 Community Shield, 2021 Copa America semifinal, 2022 World Cup quarterfinal and final), his team ended up winning the trophy. I choose to believe.

From a West Ham fan who was at the shithole bowl last night, go on lads, hope you win it.

Felicitaciones Aston Villa Saludos desde Argentina

TV coverage barely showed the Villa fans all game, they favoured repeating shots of Lille kids kissing the badge. The penalty coverage didnt show the halfway line at all either - all in all this video is the only way to see the scenes, hear the chants and get a window into the away day experience. Thank you so much Max and Simon for taking us with you. On the game, we were in energy conservation mode and lets not flatter Lille, its not like we were battered, we ended the game with more shots on target. UTV

Felicitaciones Aston Villa!!, Dibu es nuestro heroe y ahora también el de Uds, Ojala ganen el campeonato. Saludos desde Buenos Aires, Julián

Argentina is supporting Villa to win this CL because of the BEST KEEPER in the world! 🇦🇷❤ Best of luck!

Loving these videos from Zimbabwe🇿🇼. MARTINEZ NO. 1. UP THE VILLA

Me encanta ver como Emiliano les hizo sentir un poco lo que nosotros sentimos en los cuartos de final de la copa del mundo contra Holanda. I love it.

3am here in Ohio... Couldn't Wait till this dropped. Nice Surprise! Well done you Villa boys!!! Emi is my f**king hero!! ✌️

Congratulations to Villa, from a Liverpool & Argentina fan. Dibu is the best! hope you guys win the Conference League and make it to the Champions league for next season! 💙💜

Dibu martinez n°1!❤ En Francia lo lloran otra vez!😂 Congrats from Argentina 🇦🇷

We didn't play well because Lille showed their quality in this one. We all love Emi, he is our hero and a legend but let us not forget Matty Cash who blasted us into extra time! .. one days rest, light training Saturday then Bournemouth, let's goooo UTV! Thanks for another outstanding vlog Max.

Other Boca Juniors fan supporting Dibu and Aston Vila.That goalkeeper has strong mentality!

With Villa now being the only Brits in Europe , maybe Sky Sports might have to acknowledge we exist .. UP THE VILLA

As a Villa fan from America, thank you so much for making these videos.

As a Newcastle fan, would love to see you's go on and win it as you's deserve it after a cracking season 👋

The fact that you clocked that the yellows re-set in real-time puts you head and shoulders above all commentators / pundits. Great video! UTV!

He's the worlds number 1 for a reason. UP THE VILLA!!!

Watching at home on the TV, I may be one of just a handful that last saw us in a European semi final. I was just 10 when my grandad took me home and away to Anderlecht and then to Rotterdam for the final. It would be brilliant to see us win this in honour of him and give my kids something to remember. Up the Villa and thank you Max for these videos, I wake up early after every match looking forward to seeing these videos from your and the Villa faithfuls perspective.

Love from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲 up villa

😂😂.. bien por el dibu un ""paisano " de mi ciudad .. Asi se hace callar a una tribuna agresiva...""con buen fútbol y humillacion "" 😊😊. Saludos desde mar del plata ARGENTINA ❤. Greeting from mar del plata argentina 😊

Congratulations !!!❤ From Argentina

Felicitaciones!! Apoyo al Aston Villa. Saludos desde Argentina

Even before the penalties Emi was playing mind games with them. The worlds number 1🎉🎉 💜💙

42 Years to make another European Semi Final...OH WHAT A FEELING... Then just when it couldn't get any better the man himself Captain Shithousery sheds more French tears..... OH EMI MARTINEZ OH EMI MARTINEZ OH EMI MARTINEZ YES YES YES OH EMI MARTINEZ KUMON YOU VILLA BOYS GET IN THERE UP THE MIGHTY VILLA🦁💪👊👍

THE WORLDS NUMBER 1!! 🏆🔥🇦🇷 Awesome Video 👏

I am actually in this video! 😀At 8’39 you can see a small section of “plain clothes” Villa fans sat just under where the Villa away end was. Incredible match, massively stressful. Credit to the Lille fans for an amazing atmosphere in the stadium.

Another epic video, Martinez. What a guy 💙💜 best keeper I've ever seen at the Villa , and I'm 60 .

I think we should have gone trough but you are more experienced than us .. we had a brilliant time at your stadiums ( villa's).. something special really.. You know where to get your next coach when emery leaves I think.. Brilliant vlog mate..really loved the passion you have for your club! tks for sharing

What a night! We were awful until extra time but we got there in the end. Watching from Naxos, Greece, the Olympiacos fans at the bar were absolutely mental btw. The atmosphere was fantastic.

Im a cov fan but ive been watching your blogs they are really good well done villa did not play well but it doesn't matter your in the semi wish cov some luck for our semi if you don't mind 😊😊😊😊

Forest supporter. But Villa are my second favourite club. Buzzing for you and the Villa. Great to see Matty Cash making his mark

Newell's Old Boys' fan here, from Argentina, supporting the villains 💪🏼. Loved your video. I hope ypu win the CL 🤞🏼❤

Solo quería sentirme en la piel de un Villano. Saludos desde Argentina

What a keeper he is

This is the most stressed I have ever been watching the villa and I was just in a car park in Brownhills... can't imagine how it must have felt to be at the stadium

Was literally shaking last night 😂 what a shootout. Emi needs a statue at Villa Park 🔥

Don't think my heart can take much more.great video as usual Max.love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Max your videos just seem to get better and better... the atmosphere is captured on your blog like nowhere else. Fantastic scenes and it felt like I was there with you guys , so well done lads and as always up the mighty Villa ! 💜💙

Bloody hell Max that was a close run thing. We didn't deserve to win it over the two games but when it came to penalties I thought of one man, Emi Martinez. He delivered and had the last laugh on the French. I think we will beat Olympiakos in the Semi-Final as they are not as good as Lille. Great vid as usual Max, many thanks for posting it. UTV

From Perth, Australia but was watching from Tokyo. Your videos take me back to the late 70s, early 80s when I was a young lad going home and away on a shoestring budget. Great stuff!

Never had goosebumps watching a KZfaq video before. Incredible work mate, UTV!!!!!!! 👏 🇦🇷

This argentinians are amazing, they allways get strenght out of nowhere and acomplish everything they want. Really amazing people...greetings from Buenos Aires! 🤣🤣

Max, thanks from a long standing Villa fan now living in Spain. What a video, usual superb standard. The thing about your videos…they make me feel I’m there with you and the boys. UTV!

All hail His Majesty EM1 Martinez - King/ Heartbreaker of France! 😂💕 #TheBEST

Max and boys..thank you so much for your videos..really look forward to the alert ping..I live in Saundersfoot..West Wales..so don't get up much..my first game was V Halifax Town..1 970..Manager Vic Crowe..first heartbreak..when Bruce Rioch signed for Derby....Spinksy and Birchy..Alan Mcanally..I saw them play..Andy Lochhead was my hero..I am so envious of you guys now..young, carefree and fo.lowing the Villa..but I was in Upper FF..Behind the goal..Feyanord Stadium..May 26th 1982..so I guess that makes you young guys a little envious of me..keep up the good work.

que alegria!! muy bueno el informe! 😁

Go Villa, go Dibu, from Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!

The worlds number one (VOT that is). Love it lads, was looking forwards to this one and you never disappoint. Martinez is our best goalie ever. Used to love Bosnich for his penalty antics but Emi is next level. Onwards you Villa boys ❤

te amo dibu, veo que aca te valoran mucho

What a fantastic video, I was listening on the radio. Living in Bulgaria I don’t get to VP very often. Watching it and hearing all the fans singing and cheering Martinez gave me goosebumps. Keep up the great work

Saludos desde Argentina. La mayoría de los argentinos estuvimos alentando por Villa. Fue una locura el partido

Hey... I'm a german and Fan of Borussia Dortmund but i love the Aston Villa boys too!!! I hope we'll see us on 10th August in the Westfalenstadion!!! Up the Villa 💪🏼

Come on villa🎉 through to the semis. EMI MARTINEZ THE WORLDS NUMBER ONE UTV

Don’t normally comment but felt like it was an appropriate time. After reaching our first semi final for 42 years. My first game was away to forest in 1979. I was lucky to support villa throughout the great times and was lucky to be at Anderlecht for our last and only other semi final with my mate Ricky. Lived in Adelaide for nearly 20 years and always love watching your videos that remind me of similar times with my mates including being down in 1987 and coming back up. Hope all goes well for the semi final. Up the Villa.

Brilliant thanks max from an Irish villain thanks for making us feel part of these huge moments. What a manager what a squad what a club what a time to b a villa fan ❤🇮🇪 up the villa

Villa fan from Ireland

Thks Max from a Canadian supporter. Your videos are fantastic. You really bring the game day experience to us who can't be there. Awesome Mate!! UTV

Awesome Vid.. I love European trains ;-) I don't even have trains in Tasmania!! Mad game, had to listen in at 3am but hey, never in any doubt! UTV.

Matty Cash is definitely one of the heroes - a goal and he absolutely buried his penalty.

Being a Villa fan should come with a health warning! If you can play bad on both games and still win, then you’ve got to feel confident moving forward! UTV 🤞🤞🤞

Outplayed but kept playing never giving up, UTV 2 excellent saves by the lille keeper in the 2nd half of extra half. Then penalty shoot out.... then the world's number 1 got the team to the semi final. Longest 2 hours of my life. God I love the Villa

Never saw villa being my second team,if there is such a thing,but maybe because your on the up and having the best of times I look forward to your videos.I don't even bother with my own teams videos 😮

I've been going down since 1980,Emi is the best keeper I've seen wear our shirt,yes Rimmer,spink,bosnich,all brilliant for us,but Emi is different levels.utv

Thats up there with Bosnich v Tranmere UTV

Greetings from New Zealand, Great video as ever Max. Been looking forward to watching it all day. UTV

Argentina apoyando al Villa. 💪💪💪

OMG what a night. The world's number 1. UTFV 💚💚💚

Mate, I’m Aussie villain and I gotta say, absolutely loving these videos. I’ve flown over to see the boys a few times over the years but these videos are the next best thing. Love the content and keep it coming! Up the Villa!!

Thanks for another class vlog. For everybody outside the UK who can’t get to the games, thanks a million. They are absolute gold. Arsenal was brilliant. We’re going all the way with Unai.

My mrs always asks me if that lad has uploaded his video yet,haha quality pal ❤

Another smashing video. Always watch these at some point after a Villa win. Can't get to most games as I live in Malta, but love getting a taste of the atmosphere through your videos. Keep up the solid work.

big ups from vancouver mate loved the vid UTFV!

Welled up watching that!!! Amazing scenes. Bring on the Semi!!! UTMV! 💜💙🦁💪🏽

Been waiting for this since full time. Words can't express how I'm feeling at the moment. What an unbelievable journey it's been.3 more games from a trophy. Excellent content as always Max! Love you all, UTFV!

Bonjour Max 😁 Merci pour une autre vidéo excellente!

Waiting for you in Athens. Both for the second leg again this scrapy team "Olympiakos" as well as in the final, in the most beautiful stadium of the world "AEK Athens - Opap Arena" .... Come on the Villa boys from an AEK Athens and AVFC fan in Athens Greece....

se los resumo, ustedes son voz EMI y EMI es la voz ustedes, es un jugador con sed de gloria y pone lo que hay que poner en la cancha

Game was worth getting up at 2:45am for! UTV!

Fantastic video. Not ashamed to say I had tears in my eyes at the end. What a season, what a manager, what a time to be alive. UTV!

Absolutely exhausted after that! Feel like I played in the match myself! So glad we're in the semis. Lille were a real tough nut to crack. Only hope it hasn't knackered the lads too much for the Bournemouth game. Keep finding a way to win- C'MON THE VILLLLLAAAAAAA BOYZ!!!!!💥💥💥💥💥💥🦁🦁🦁🦁🦁

Great video, love the little bit ofn Lille itself as thats what those of us who didn't travel miss out on. Looking forward to seeing you in Athens x2

Loved it my and my dad where watching it in the villa bar

From the Xeneize (Boca Juniors) family much support to Villa and to Dibu. You may not know this but all of Argentina was rooting for you on this game as well. Love to see Dibu being loved by Villa fans as much as we do here. He is insane in all the best ways. LET'S GO VILLA!!!

The piece to camera in the train station shows how far you’ve come as a broadcaster! Fascinating to see the improvement in your delivery over the years

What a time to be a Villa fan

What a great time. Remember '82 Its coming round again. Love you broadcast and follow you , just wish I could be there with you but not possible due to my age and disabilities, so really enjoy your broadcasts, bring the atmosphere that I have for so long missed. Lifelong Villa fan since the 1950's. Greeting from North East Germany.

I remember watching that game at home and when cash scored that goal I screamed with joy and when emi shushed the crowd when he saved the first pen and when he saved the last it was just amazing I cried

I watch these videos religiously and sometimes don't comment but on the day of or day after a villa game I'm constantly refreshing my KZfaq for your video. Great work as always mate thank you so much for doing what you do
