Aston Villa have done it! After 42 years, Villa are back in a Champions League quarter-final, securing their place with a controlled performance against Club Brugge to win 6-2 on aggregate over two legs.. But now, the stakes are even higher – PSG await in what promises to be a monumental clash and a real test of Unai Emery's European pedigree.
We look back at how Villa sealed the deal against Bruges – Emery’s tactical approach, the sending off and second-half dominance. Then, we look at the recent evolution of the PSG team and problems they will pose.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
