Match Media
On This Day
  • John Deehan scores against his boyhood club but Peter Withe equalises as Villa are frustrated by Norwich's incessant use of the offside trap to destroy all rhythm in the game ahead of a Carrow Road replay.

  • Tony Barton's Villa can only draw with Norwich despite Peter Withe's seventeenth goal of the season.
