BIRMINGHAM, England -- The echoes of history were inescapable on Wednesday at Villa Park. After a 41-year wait to return to top-level European football, Aston Villa's 1-0 win over Bayern Munich in the Champions League repeated the scoreline which secured their sole European Cup triumph on May 26, 1982.
Just like that memorable night in Rotterdam, where Peter Withe scored the most famous goal in the club's history over the German giants, Villa were outplayed for periods of the match and had to weather several storms, but they struck against the run of play to secure another famous victory as striker Jhon Durán wrote his name into folklore.
