42 years later, “Aston Villa” again defeated “Bayern” with 1:0.
Then it happened on May 26 in the CASH final. 26 days later, Prince William was born.
Tonight, the British Crown Prince, who is a huge Villa fan, was at Birmingham Stadium to witness the sweet success and enjoy it with the packed stands.
In the match of the II round of the Champions League, the hosts scored thanks to the Colombian reserve John Duran. He scored in the 79th minute, after passing the ball forward to Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
The German giants pressed almost all the time, but failed to convert their chances.
So Vincent Kompany recorded his first loss in charge of Bayern.
Interestingly, Neuer and his Argentinian counterpart Emiliano Martinez, who had very strong performances, led both teams with the captain’s armbands.
In the composition of “Bayern” were the captains of Germany and England, Joshua Kimmich and Harry Kane.
