The famous old stadium was a sell out as Villa welcomed their illustrious opponents for a last-sixteen clash that was finely poised at 0-0 after the first-leg in Amsterdam. Lehmann had no problems getting hold of a ticket however, and happily posted some shots of herself under the floodlights just before kick off on Thursday evening.

Lehmann posted some hugs and kisses emojis and the hashtag #UTV — shorthand for 'Up The Villa' as she geared up to watch Unai Emery's side dismantle their Dutch opponents.

The Swiss international would have been delighted as Villa emphatically booked their place in the last-eight with a thumping 4-0 victory, especially with the first two goals created by Lehmann's partner Douglas Luiz. The result continued Villa's surging season and brings the prospect of some European silverware into tantalising view.
For their opponents it was another demoralising result in a troubled campaign and a tough return home for Jordan Henderson who was given a rough ride by the home crowd on the day he retained his place in Gareth Southgate's England squad.
WHAT NEXT FOR ASTON VILLA?
Villa's men take a trip to that other Claret and Blue side flying in Europe, West Ham, on Sunday. Lehmann and company head the opposite direction to take on Everton on Merseyside on Saturday afternoon.
