Live commentary
- 90:00 +6:47The referee blows his whistle for the final time to end this match.
- 90:00 +5:57Morgan Gibbs-White (Nottingham) fires the ball in from a mid-range free kick, but the effort goes just wide of the right post.
- 90:00 +5:00Tyrone Mings (Aston Villa) sees a yellow card. He should be more careful because one more challenge like that could result in a red card.
- 90:00 +4:31A pass from Ibrahim Mbaye (Aston Villa) is intercepted by Matz Sels and the move breaks down.
- 90:00 +2:53A dangerous looking corner kick from Neco Williams (Nottingham) is cleared to safety by the defence.
- 90:00 +2:42Neco Williams (Nottingham) sends a pass into the box, but his attempt is thwarted and cleared. Nottingham earn a corner.
- 90:00 +2:01Ola Aina (Nottingham) was too fierce in his attempt to get the ball from his opponent and Andy Madley blows for a foul.
- 90:00 +0:48The referee signals a substitution. Chris Wood (Nottingham) is brought on as a substitute for Liam Delap.
- 90:00 +0:15Ibrahim Sangare (Nottingham) tries his luck with a long-range shot from a rebound, but it isn't precise at all and the ball flies well wide of the left post towards the corner flag. Very poor shot.
- 90:00There will be a minimum of 6 min. of added time.
- 87:46What a hit! Igor Jesus (Nottingham) shows good composure inside the box to fire a first-time shot into the bottom left corner. 1:2.
- 87:03Andy Madley blows his whistle after Victor Lindelof (Aston Villa) kicks an opponent's legs instead of the ball.
- 85:53That was a brilliant piece of goalkeeping! Zion Suzuki dived superbly to block the header from around the penalty spot, which was aimed straight towards the bottom left corner by Xaver Schlager (Nottingham).
- 85:08Daniel Munoz (Nottingham) rises above the opponent's defence and heads a precise cross towards the right post. His effort, however, is blocked by Zion Suzuki, who pulls off a stunning save!
- 82:00It's time for a substitution. Ibrahim Sangare (Nottingham) comes on in place of James McAtee.
