Rogers, 23, became the youngest player in Europa League history to score and assist in the final, capping off a fine performance.
Villa’s triumph marks their first trophy since 1996, and their first European title since they won the old European Cup in 1982.
Speaking to TNT Sports after the game, Rogers was delighted that his and his teammate’s names will go down in history alongside those great Villa sides.
"It's hard to put into words, we've worked so hard for this. We've delivered and come through. It's a great moment for the fans, great for the club. We'll go down in history,” he said.
"There was so much excitement. We're all really excited.
"The manager has been banging on at me to get easier goals and get into the box. I'm happy I could get a toe onto it and score.
"I'm tired but not that tired. It's all worth it in the end."
