Aston Villa progressed to the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup after overcoming Wolves in a 2-1 victory, and ahead of the Premier League clash between the West Midlands' opponents, these Villa fans have been loving a throwback to a league encounter between the two teams from 2012.

Villa, then under the management of Alex McLeish, battled to a 3-2 victory over their rivals after a brace from Robbie Keane and a converted penalty from Darren Bent.

Although the 2011/12 season saw the club finish 16th in the table, whilst proceeding to battle against relegation for three seasons before finally succumbing to the pressure in 2016, these Villa supporters were certainly pleased to be living the impressive victory over Wolves, with some praising the performance of Keane in particular. 

Villa would love another day like this, especially with Smith looking to return to winning ways in the league after consecutive to defeats to Liverpool and Manchester City when they visit Molineux on Sunday.

Here are some of the best reactions to Villa’s official tweet reliving the victory from 2012.
