Match Media
On This Day
  • Villa, playing poorly on a poor pitch grab the opener and should have had a second half pen before Stoke's equaliser grabs a Villa Park replay.

  • Eric Houghton's Villa can only draw with second division Stoke in the FA Cup third round necessitating a Villa Park replay.
