Brought on in the second half, the Colombia international caught goalkeeper Manuel Neuer off his line from range in what is Villa’s first goal in Europe’s premier club competition in 41 years.

Around 25 yards out from goal, the 20-year-old curled home a sumptuous strike over the retired Germany international to send Villa Park into delirium.

It was his sixth goal of the season in all competitions – and fifth off the bench.

Along with his 79th minute strike against Bayern, he has also scored the winner in Villa’s Premier League clashes against West Ham, Leicester and Everton, while also finding the back of the net against Wolves.

As for boss Unai Emery, the Spaniard has equalled Jose Mourinho’s record of beating the Bundesliga giants with three different clubs – the Portuguese doing so with Chelsea, Inter Milan and Real Madrid.

The former Arsenal manager has tasted victory over Bayern while previously being at the helm of Paris Saint-Germain and Villarreal.
