On This Day
Villa win in a remarkable game at Craven Cottage to climb to 12th in the table level with Chelsea and Arsenal. Villa race into a two goal lead, concede a hat-trick before four second half goals secure victory in a nine goal thriller.
Dick Taylor's Villa win for the fourth time in five games as their recently improved form continues. Villa make it four wins, a draw and four defeats in nine League games this season.
