Trivia
- New Aston Villa player Neale Cooper is jeered by the Celtic fans.
- Cooper is booked and the Villa manager admitted that he took him off before he was ordered off.
- Italian papers say Genoa are chasing Paul McStay's transfer.
Review
Brian McClair's goal is a thing of beauty when he rises above the Villa defence to head in Willie McStay's cross.
