On This Day
Dai Astley scores four goals and contributes 2 assists and Eric Houghton scores a hat-trick as Villa put seven past Sunderland in the fourth round of the FA Cup.
It doesn't come without cost however as thuggish Sunderland play leaves multiple Villa players injured and causes regular absences from the field of play.
Villa confound the form books as they put seven past high flying division one rivals Sunderland to win in the FA Cup fourth round.
