English sides beaten
NZPA-Reuter London Aston Villa were pulverised and Liverpool poleaxed as England lost all interest in the European Cup soccer competition this week.
However, the Scottish Cup holders, Aberdeen, proved the team of the moment by beating Bayern Munich 3-2, thanks to two goals in a minute, to ease themselves into the semi-finals of the
European Cup Winners’ Cup. The European champions, Villa, travelled to Italy with veiled optimism but were torn apart by Juventus and lost their quarter-final second leg 1-3, losing 5-2 on
aggregate. Liverpool missed the superb skills of the Scot, Kenny Dalglish, and although they won 3-2 on the night against the Polish team Widzew Lodz, they lost over-all 4-3.
