HIBERNIAN 0 ASTON VILLA 5
EUROPA CONFERENCE LEAGUE
PLAY-OFF, FIRST LEG
OLLIE WATKINS smashed a 31-minute hat-trick in his very own Edinburgh binge festival.
This so-called Battle of Britain turned into Scottish surrender as Watkins and Villa exposed a huge gulf in class.
A mile away the Edinburgh Fringe saw comedians trying to convince crowds they were worth a punt on the Royal Mile.
But the capitulation at Easter Road was anything but funny for the home fans as Lee Johnson's Hibs side were booed off.
Villa fans love to hate Johnson after past battles and accusations Villa "mocked" his side when he was Bristol City chief - so the Midlanders will have enjoyed a chuckle over this victory.
