🕒 | FT Everton 4-2 Aston Villa
On This Day
A really poor refereeing performance allows Everton to build a four goal lead with two illegitimate goals and then compounds Villa's misfortune by disallowing their second half strike.
Reigning Champions Villa's lose their first game in 10 and as a result Everton are gifted two points to go level with Villa and Sunderland at the top of the table.
League title winning goalkeeper Bill Dunning played his final game for Villa. Bill conceded 124 goals in 69 appearances at a rate of 1.80 goals per game.
