On This Day
Saturday, 4 December 1926
Everton and Villa, both struggling at the bottom of the table, play out an exhilarating game at Villa Park within the first few minutes Villa have a penalty for hands waved away but Everton break the deadlock as they beat goalkeeper Bill Johnson on his Villa debut aged 24 after joining from Buxton in January 1926.
Villa soon equalise beefore Everton luck in with two more goals before halftime to lead 1-3 against the run of play at the interval.
Villa hit back with 4 goals in 18 second half minutes and add a 6th which the referee disallows deeming it not to have crossed the line.
Villa concede a fifteenth goal in four games but hit five to beat Everton at Villa Park and make it five wins, four draws and nine defeats in their first eighteen division one matches.
Len Capewell scores a hat-trick on his first appearance in eight games as Villa concede a fifteenth goal in four games but hit five to beat Everton at Villa Park and make it five wins, four draws and nine defeats in their first eighteen division one matches.
