Season game #10 | Premier League game #8
Highfield Road game # | Gordon Strachan game #88
Unbeaten Villa are buzzing and helped by a dreadful mistake by the linesman for their second goal, with Merson and Taylor offside. City make a game of it after the break but Bosnich is superb with only Soltvedt able to breach Villa’s defence. Leeds want Strachan as their new boss.
