Aston Villa and Celtic player ratings as history-maker lands 10/10 and three visiting players shine bright - gallery

Marks out of ten for the players at Villa Park

Celtic signed off their Champions League main phase campaign with an entertaining 4-2 defeat by Aston Villa.

The hosts raced into a two-goal lead thanks to a double from Morgan Rogers within the first five minutes, only for Celtic to roar back before the interval with a double from Adam Idah.

With the scores level at the break, both teams pushed for a winner and it was Villa who got the upper hand. Ollie Watkins - heavily linked with a move to Arsenal - put the Birmingham-based side ahead once more before missing a penalty. Rogers then completed his hat-trick in stoppage time - his first in senior football.

Aston Villa finish eighth and qualify directly for the last 16 of the competition. Celtic ended the night in 21st place and are unseeded for the play-off round, with a match against either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich - two European heavyweights - awaiting them.

Here are the player ratings after a dramatic match at Villa Park.
