Trezeguet's dramatic late goal put Aston Villa into Carabao Cup final with a 2-1 victory over Leicester at Villa Park.
After a 1-1 draw in the first leg, the hosts took the lead early in the game through Matt Targett, when Jack Grealish swept forward and delayed his pass to Targett who gave Kasper Schmeichel no chance.
In the second half, the Foxes, deservedly, levelled the game thanks to Kelechi Ilheanacho who turned home after a cross from the in-form Harvey Barnes.
But, as the game was coming to an end and penalties were imminent, Ahmed Elmohamedy sent a superb cross into the box with Egyptian international Trezeguet redirecting the ball in to take the Villains to Carabao Cup final, returning to Wembley after last years play-off success.
In a season of struggles in the Premier League, Dean Smith will take his side back to Wembley on March 1st, facing either Manchester City or Manchester United who's semi-final concludes tomorrow.
We're going to Wembley...
