I think Williams was at right back. Was it the grey haired Bettega who back heeled it?

The two games I remember most queuing up to get in for are Barcelona and Juventus in '83. I don't remember many Barcelona fans at Villa Park. But when Rossi scored for Juventus I thought I was in Turin.

A fair number of UK based Italians were at that game - IIRC they had half the Witton End and quite a few fans in the Witton Lane stand.
I know of a few blues and albion fans who were there to see Juventus. They were a real crowd puller.
