ON THIS DAY
Wednesday, 19 October 1983
Villa take the game to Spartak 🇷🇺 and look to be heading for a first leg win before a soft 89' penalty saves the Soviets.
Villa face FC Spartak Moscow 🇷🇺 for the first time in competitive football, Spartak become the 128th team that the Villa first team has played in League or Cup football, Villa’s 15th continental European opponents and their first from Russia 🇷🇺.
A laughable penalty award in unmerited injury time secures Spartak 🇷🇺 an 🟨 undeserved draw on their home patch but regardless Tony Barton's Villa secure two away goals as they draw in Moscow in the second round of the UEFA Cup.
Colin Gibson 🏴 scores his ⚽ 5th goal in 🕒 14 matches, having scored ⚽ three in his first 🕒 144 appearances in a Villa shirt.
Winger Tony Morley 🏴 makes his 🕒 175th appearance in a Villa shirt.
