Aston Villa boss Unai Emery was pleased after their impressive Europa League win at Bologna on Thursday night.
Villa won the first-leg of their quarterfinal 3-1 in Italy, with Ollie Watkins striking twice and Ezri Konsa also on the scoresheet.
"It’s a fantastic result, and our supporters were fantastic,” he said.
“There were 2,500 supporters here with us and we were feeling them supporting us, following us and helping us. Our responsibility is to try and get a good result through playing well and maybe we got a good result and didn’t play very well, in the first half especially.
“In the second half we had a fantastic 30 minutes. The match is not over and the second leg is going to be very important in Villa Park, extending the 90 minutes we played here achieving a fantastic result.
“They are a team who were winning against Roma and it’s a team that is so, so competitive. They will not be giving up.
“We’re going to respect them at Villa Park. I want to enjoy the momentum with our supporters.”
Emery added: “Now it’s about the game in Villa Park with our supporters.
“We will need them, supporting, helping and keeping balance. The round is not over, even with this result we have: 3-1.
“We must be respectful and play the second leg.”
