Best non-football sporting moments.

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

The Coe v Ovett 800 and 1500 races in Moscow 1980.
Both won a gold and silver.

Being in Vienna to watch Eliud Kipchoge complete a marathon in under 2 hours. Incredible.

First one day game I can remember.
Black and white TV though.David Hughes.

These pitch invasions need to be stopped.

Being in Vienna to watch Eliud Kipchoge complete a marathon in under 2 hours. Incredible.

That's easy for you to say.

Great try scored by the greatest player of all time.

Great try scored by the greatest player of all time.

Ruined by that music over the commentary by, IIRC, the inimitable Cliff Morgan. "WHAT A SCORE!"


Without the music ruining the clip....

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

As tragic as it ended....Benn v Mclellan.

Yep, an epic fight. Try Lopez vs Mathew Saad Mohammed some time. Round 8 is unreal. Bowe vs Holyfield 2 (I think) was pretty special too, as was Foreman vs Ron Lyle, which had so many knock downs it was like a Stallone movie

Oddly, a beleaguered Steve Waugh getting his century v England off the last ball of the day in the New Year Sydney test in 2003. Incredible tension.

That Saturday night in the Olympics when we won 3 gold medals

Was the first thing that sprung to my mind - it was excellent

Also, the "Miracle At Medinah" Ryder Cup was pretty special too
