It represented a huge success in his first season as manager for Tony Barton. He had only taken over as Villa boss before the quarter-finals after the shock resignation of legendary Villa coach Ron Saunders.

It was to get worse for Bayern players Dremmler, Breitner and Rummenigge. That summer they were part of the West Germany team that lost to Italy in the World Cup final in Spain.

As defending European champions Villa were invited into the European Cup, European Super Cup and World Club Cup for the following season. Their defence of the European Cup ended in a quarter-final defeat to a Michel Platini-inspired Juventus F.C.. They beat FC Barcelona 3-1 on aggregate to win the Super Cup, but lost 2-0 to Uruguay club Penarol for the Intercontinental Cup in Tokyo, Japan.
