On This Day
Leeds use all their petty and unnecessary โprofessionalismโ but second division Villa out play and out class the first division team and are unlucky to not beat Don Revieโs side in the fourth round of the League Cup.
Vic Crowe's Villa hold division one side Leeds to a creditable draw in the League Cup fourth round ahead of an Elland Road replay.
