Aston Villa boss Unai Emery was satisfied with their 1-1 draw at HK Zrinjski.
The result sees Villa qualify from their Europa Conference League group as winners.
Emery said: We are happy because our objective was to be first in the group, with this draw we are.
We tried to play with some players who are not playing regularly in the season because of injuries like Jacob Ramsey and Alex Moreno, and with Leander Dendoncker, Filip Marschall and Tommi O'Reilly as well.
It's important for them to get confidence and minutes. Tonight was perfect with the draw and result and perfect to give some of the players chances."
Emery added: We wanted to win but our first objective is completely done: to be first in the group.
We want to enjoy the way in this competition because for us to be in Europe it's important to remember how we achieved it last year and how we are now trying to win a trophy.
We want to enjoy it with our supporters and some supporters were here with us today. It's important for them to be together and enjoy this way in Europe."
