Aston Villa Europa League winners. The celebration video from Istanbul is everything. Watch Prince William lose his mind. - genuine question

[Amy96]

44 years of waiting ended on Wednesday night in Istanbul. 3-0 against Freiburg. Tielemans, Buendia, Morgan Rogers. Martinez playing with a broken finger he suffered in the warm-up. And Prince William in the stands going through every human emotion possible.

The TNT Sports footage of William arriving at the final has already gone viral. The dressing room celebrations are being shared everywhere. Matty Cash saying William is just a normal guy and he can get his credit card out at the end of the night is peak football.

Prince William going through every emotion in that stand is the most human footage of a royal I have ever seen

Martinez breaking his finger in the warm-up and just playing anyway and keeping a clean sheet is the most goalkeeper thing that has ever happened

Matty Cash saying get his credit card out is sending me. The relationship between the squad and their royal fan is genuinely lovely

[RayOfLight99]

Emery winning his fifth Europa League is one of the most remarkable records in football management. The man is an artist in this competition

Spot on. Story of my life that.

A lot of advice gets repeated because it sounds right rather than because people really tested it.

Cheers

First trophy in 30 years. 44 years since a European trophy. The scenes in Birmingham last night must have been something

Morgan Rogers adding the third to make it 3-0 and the camera cutting to William jumping out of his seat is the clip of the year

Kensington Palace posting Amazing night as a formal statement is the most un-royal royal communication imaginable and I love it for them

Villa in the Champions League next season. Europa League winners this season. This is not a club overachieving any more. This is what they are now

The generation of Villa fans who grew up being told about 1982 now have their own story to tell
