Aston Villa skipper John McGinn insisted it was still all to play for in the second leg of their Europa Conference League semi-final against Olympiacos, despite a 4-2 defeat at Villa Park.
McGinn told TNT Sports:"Mistakes all round tonight, but of course we're going to take responsibility and it's up to us to go to Athens next week and turn it around because we are capable.
"So the manager was very positive in there. There's still a long way to go. A lot of people will go home disappointed tonight, none more so than us. Villa boss Unai Emery admitted his side fell below their usual standards and that Olympiacos were good value for their win. "We lost a little bit our positioning on the pitch and more or less threw it. They deserved to win. They are a very good team. They have experience and of course I know in Europe it is difficult.
