โฝ | 25' Goal, 1-0, Tommy Clayton, Assist by Ernie Callaghan
๐ | HT Aston Villa 1-0 Sheffield United
๐ | Both sets of players become emboiled in a melee in the Villa box
๐ | Referee Taylor awards a free kick to the visitors after a Jimmy Allen executes what looks to be a perfect challenge on the visiting forward
๐ | Despite the 'foul' being in the box, referee Taylor still insists on a 'free kick' despite the correct award being a penalty
๐ | Protests continue for several minutes as referee Taylor refuses to change his decision either on the non-foul or the free-kick over penalty decision
๐ | In order to exit the controversy, referee Taylor ducks under the arguing players and runs to the centre
๐ | After four minutes referee Taylor signals play to continue only to then call over Jimmy Allen for further discussions
๐ | Finally play resumes and the free kick comes to nothing
๐ | Referee Taylor is roundly booed for any decision made over the following minutes
๐ | Referee Taylor takes no action as a Sheffield United player hacks down George Cummings
๐ | FT Aston Villa 1-0 Sheffield United
