We were at the opposite side of Wembley and it was as clear as day even from there. Robbed again. Edited July 20, 2023 by GlobalVillan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said we would tire after an hour and was true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Gazza in 1991 cup final on Gary Charles. Even by early 90s standard incredible he didn't get sent off, shows how quickly the game change as was a certain red 3-4 years later. Pretty sure he did a crazy challenge a few minutes before that on Garry Parker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scholes made so many bad tackles, Shearer kicked somebody in the face 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more of a slide tackle IIRC but Hutton was very fortunate not to see red and Long went off injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) This game by Glenn Hysén back in 88 was awarded a 6 out of 5 rating by the papers in Sweden, and rightly so. Guy was immense. The tackle at around 1.04 is especially crisp. Edited July 21, 2023 by sne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
