Having lost the first leg 1-0 to a Chris Wood penalty, Villa was a different side on home soil, with Ollie Watkins and Emiliano Buendia also on target in an emphatic thumping.

Omari Hutchinson sent an early sighter wide for Forest, but it was all Villa from there, with Stefan Ortega denying Pau Torres and Buendia early on.

But Villa drew level on aggregate in the 36th minute after Forest failed to fully clear a long ball over the top. The hosts' pressure paid off, and Buendia danced away from two defenders to square in Watkins, who fired in from close range.

Ortega again denied Watkins before the break, but it was not until the 58th minute that Villa took the lead in the tie.

After a VAR review, the referee pointed to the spot after Nikola Milenkovic was deemed to pull back Torres in the box, and Buendia converted from 12 yards.

Watkins had a second ruled out shortly after, having failed to get back onside before lifting his low shot over Ortega's outstretched leg, with the offside flag immediately raised.

Wood saw a low shot smothered by Emiliano Martinez as Forest sought an equaliser, but McGinn ended its hopes of getting back into the match with two goals in three minutes.

Watkins cushioned the ball into McGinn's path in the 77th minute, and he coolly swept into the bottom-left corner from the edge of the box. His second was similarly dispatched into the opposite corner to send Villa Park into raptures and book their place in Istanbul.
