Leading on aggregate, Villa concede another silly penalty to surrender their first-leg lead, but after some nervy moments following the equaliser, Alan Leeโs goal settled Villa and put them ahead on aggregate once again before a wickedly bending Alex Meredith corner is turned into his own net by a Grimsby defender.
Holders Villa will face Stoke in the final, having already beaten them 3-1 in both League meetings this season.
