Aston Villa celebrated their long-awaited return to the UEFA Champions League with a 3-0 victory over Young Boys in Bern, Switzerland, marking their first appearance in Europe's top club competition since 1983. The match was emotionally charged due to the recent death of club legend Gary Shaw, who passed away at 63 after a fall. Prince William and other fans paid tribute to Shaw, whose goals and performances were instrumental in Villa's European Cup win in 1982. Villa manager Unai Emery dedicated the win to Shaw, expressing the team's desire to honor his legacy. Shaw's contributions to the club, including 79 goals in 213 appearances, left a lasting impact on fans and teammates alike.
