About this book

ROTTERDAM, 26th May 1982. It’s deadlock in the 67th minute of a tense European Cup Final between Aston Villa and Bayern Munich. Tony Morley moves forward, dances past defenders on the left wing, and whips in a low, curling cross. It slices through the Bayern defence — Peter Withe! The ball strikes the inside of the post and hits the back of the net. Pandemonium erupts. Aston Villa are 23 minutes from European glory.

Follow the story of Aston Villa Football Club through a book of authentic Daily Mirror newspaper articles and reports dating back to 1905. Relive the club’s history— exactly as it was reported at the time.

Featuring:

– The FA Cup triumph over the Busby Babes in 1957
– Lifting the European Cup in 1982
