On This Day
Tony Barton's ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ Villa suffer a second successive defeat in all competitions as they lose at reigning champions Liverpool and fall back to 8th in the first division table.
Villa concede two in the last twenty minutes before Steve McMahon ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ is ๐ฅ sent off by referee David Hutchinson despite the Villa midfielder's assailant Graeme Souness getting away with a clear kick.
That injustice added to Phil Neal escaping with a booking for denying Villa a clear goalscoring opportunity in the early minutes of the first half.
As a result Villa make it ๐ฉ three wins, ๐จ one draw and ๐ฅ two defeats in ๐ six League games so far this season.
Colin Gibson ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ scores his โฝ 5th goal in a Villa shirt on his ๐ 152nd appearance but it is his โฝ second in his last ๐ 8 games.
Meanwhile, Herbert Douglas Ellis faces a challenge to his dictatorship.
