Aston Villa vs FC Barcelona History

In the 1981/82 season Aston Villa pulled off something of a miracle success when, in their maiden European Cup campaign, the Midlands side secured a famous title-winning triumph by beating Bayern Munich in Rotterdam. That success is still fondly recalled by the club’s older supporters and was secured by a Peter Withe goal and an astounding display by substitute keeper Nigel Spink. It was followed a few weeks later by a Super Cup success against FC Barcelona, though the club has achieved little to nothing of note in UEFA competitions ever since.

FC Barcelona, on the other hand, are one of the most decorated teams in the game's history, winning their first European Cup in 1992 thanks to a screamer from Ronald Koeman against Sampdoria at Wembley Stadium. A second success, this time in the UEFA Champions League, came around in 2006 with a win over Arsenal in Paris coming late on. The club’s most dominant phase followed, with Pep Guardiola’s side proving nearly unstoppable as they romped to victory in both 2009 and 2011, both at the expense of Manchester United. A fifth crown came in 2014/15, Juventus being brushed aside from the incredible attacking trio of Lionel Messi, Neymar and Luis Suarez.

Aston Villa vs FC Barcelona Head-to-Head

These two sides first met in the 1977/78 UEFA Cup, with FC Barcelona edging out Aston Villa 4-3 on aggregate. Their next clash came in the European Super Cup, which was then a two-legged affair. A goal from Marcos Alonso gave the Blaugrana a 1-0 home win at Camp Nou, but a late goal from Gary Shaw in Birmingham forced the game into extra time, where further efforts from Gordon Cowans and captain Ken McNaught secured a famous win for the English side.
