MATCH SUMMARY
Villa are held by Manchester City to a goalless home draw but Villa climb back to eleventh having suffered just four defeats in twenty since Tony Barton took over. Meanwhile, Anderlecht are held equally to blame for the crowd trouble in the European Cup and though Villa must play their next home tie behind closed doors they are free to compete, with a full backing of fans, in the Rotterdam final in three weeks time.
