•Yahoo Sports
Aston Villa fan Gareth Cheadle and his son Kealan are making the most of Villa's European final and are touring several countries before the final in Istanbul on Wednesday. The duo will visit Valencia, Milan and Sharm El Sheikh before Istanbul and then Berlin on the way home. "It's a memory that will last a lifetime," said Gareth to BBC Radio WM.
"It's a fantastic opportunity. "It's my son's 21st birthday in a couple of months so we had a chat and said we'd book a few places along the way just in case Villa don't go there [to the final] and it snowballed. "We just kept adding more destinations!
"We've been to a couple of European away days and the atmosphere is great. I can't wait. It's going to be a great occasion.
