It’s an amazing watch for a modern Fan -the players frantically running to take throw ins almost instantly!Easy - Real Madrid 7 Eintracht Frankfurt 3
Euro Cup Final in Glasgow 1960. The BBC showed it live (black & white) and I was transfixed. I'd never seen football like it.
Am I the only one to have seen it and raved over it?
Probably the best Team they have ever had playing at their absolute peak and we deservedly beat them. An awesome night.Manchester City (2) Vs Liverpool (1)
3rd Jan 2019, Etihad Stadium, Manchester
The best game I have seen in my life. The intensity, the tension, the stakes, the teams, the home support - everything was just top notch. The dippers were a worthy adversary to us that day and played their part in the spectacle. This was their only loss that season, so it was a worthy title decider. We absolutely had to win that match and everyone (players, staff and supporters) played their role magnificently.
The match had everything. The best goal-line clearance in the history of football, the most hard working performance by a player in a match (hats off to you Bernie, he ran some 14 kms that day, he was everywhere), Sane & Kun with two absolute beauties, Vinnie with a trademark crunching tackle on the crybaby Salah and then mocking him mercilessly for crying, Ferna with a masterclass in the defensive midfield position, Raheem leaving that c**t Robertson for dead on the run, the super tense finish of the match, Flopp moaning again in the post match conference.
We beat a very very good side that day and it proved to be the title decider after the dippers were again left behind by 1 point (or 11 mm).
Re-watching it I can almost feel the utter despair watching the endless Corners etc in the 2nd Half as we plugged away -but it’s still nothing like the actual day and the fantastic payoff that followed. I’ve never heard a noise like it when Serge scored and I doubt I ever will again -it was surreal.Totally agree and I also accept all the comments about how poor the City v QPR game was, that said, I could (and still do) watch the 90 minutes of that game and end up with goosebumps and a tear in the eye....
UNBEATABLE!
Get where you’re coming from. Brilliant game to watch.Got my tin hat on here, but the 2005 CL Final, was a truly remarkable game. How Milan blew that game with the players they had, I will never know.
Lol.Surely the greatest game in history was on New Year’s Day, 1973.
