A goal from Harvey Elliott, in the 43rd minute at the Community Stadium capitalising on a defensive mistake from Brentford, allowed Unai Emery's side to score their first goal of the campaign.
Furthermore, it marked Harvey Elliott's first goal in an Aston Villa shirt, having joined the club on loan from Liverpool this summer. The English midfielder is Monchi's star signing of the summer, and hopes are high that he can replicate the success of the last three seasons.
However, Aaron Hickey's second-half strike levelled the score, sending the tie to penalties - with no extra time played until the semi-finals in this competition. There, Unai Emery's men faced a formidable Valdimarsson, who saved spot-kicks from John McGinn and Matt Cash. Brentford converted all four of their penalties.
