ON THIS DAY
Saturday, 11 February 1967
Villa contain Liverpool at Anfield to a single goal for the first time in five seasons but they are defeated all the same. Worse still defeat comes from a disputed goal. Despite Villa’s defeat to the reigning champions and leaders it is no change at the bottom as Dick Taylor’s side remains 19th and four points above the relegation places.
Dick Taylor's wildly inconsistent Villa fail to score for the second successive game and the third time in six as they lose successive matches to make it nine wins, three draws and sixteen defeats in twenty eight League games so far this season.

🆘 A woeful performance that would become, and still remains, all too common at Anfield. Thacker awards a goal despite it being offside, oh and a handball. Pitiful.
