  • Truly Amazing .... sends shivers down my spine

  • Alan Rickman is the linesman

  • Seeing Kenny Dalglish's face makes it 100x better !! What a mug

  • 26th May 1989 - Don Revie dies, Rupert Murdoch launches Sky and this match. Not many days like that in English football.

  • Lol i love their shirt numbers, and the amount of substitutes... :D

  • Wow so many police, so different today.

  • Sorry but if this had modern day commentary, especially Keys and Grey, it would have been made so much more epic.

  • 'its up for grabs now' hairs on my neck stand up, great memories

  • one of the most memorable lines in football no doubt

  • @NZJeremy Most likely. Smith reconfirms it in the video "Anfield 89" uploaded by imarsenalman.

  • look at that crowd. looks like so much fun. Unfortunately i was born into a generation who will never get to experience an atmosphere and crowd like this. All I've ever known is £50 tickets, stewards telling you to sit down and players who get paid so much they are as distant from the supporters as the Queen. My dad is always grumbling about the death of football and watching clips like this makes me know exactly what he is talking about. The big corporations have murdered football for the fans.

  • Is this the goal Alan Smith talks about in Fifa 12 when he is asked by Martin Tyler if he did in fact "touch it", to which Alan replies "yes, I did"?

  • Incredible. Could not have been any better result.

  • Houghton, are you winding me up?? Greatest header ever!

  • Yes, Liverpool took this one hard. The tragedy at Hillsborough had happened just one month before; the Reds had won the FA Cup final, 3-2 against Everton, just a week or so before; and they were determined to win the double. Playing at home, it was Liverpool's title - Liverpool's double - to lose. And, by God, they lost it. Oh well, one out of two ain't bad.

  • love the sole arsenal fan in the liverpool section at 4:19 celebrating

  • @therealjakespitz Haha thanks for pointing that out, brilliant. Reckon he couldn't control his emotions.

  • @therealjakespitz lol i noticed tha too

  • @Volentrix that*

  • Nick Hornby called the chapter in Fever Pitch: The Greatest Moment of all. I'm 12 now and I still get excited by the likes of this. Come on Arsenal!!!!

  • Fucking dirty scousers are poor losers

  • It's up for grabs now!!!

    epic

  • Anfield Library !!!

  • Fantastic Video.

    Great memories and I'm not even a Gooner.

    Just a brilliant football moment.

  • Unbelievable. I remember this like it was just yesterday.

  • cant imagine how it must have felt for the players when i feel this excited watching it

  • I just come to tears like Henry now.

  • Amazing moment in football - no matter who you support.

  • well done arsenal respect from a chelsea fan,john aldridge what a prick! sore loser.no dignity.

  • That great 1989 title deciding match is really an unforgetable moment for me!!!Arsenal for life and Arsenal till I die!!!

  • @mrsladegreen. You're a city fan who laughs at United?? Since 1977 Top Flight Trophies won: City 1 United 42. Who's laughing now???

  • @IbanezDaemon . That just means you are a Another munich glory hunting cunt.

  • @shedendboy1 Yeah and you're Another pathetic piece of scum who brings Munich into it. Show some respect!!!

  • JVC!

  • wtf only 2 subs in those days?

  • i being a man.united fan just love the gunners for their habitual victory over liverpool at crucial times........never mind if we beated you (8-2) too harshly this season i love arsenal

  • @Nestocafe common man...our reserve depleted side vs your strong (£54 mil recently spent) side at old trafford...... i m badly waiting for the return leg!!

  • @str8rite1 yea its true..if it was your strong one(V.Persie,Arteta,Gervinho)i­t would have been 3-0 least

  • @Nestocafe ManU wud have won.........not 3-0..........it wud have been 5-2 or 6-4 or 4-1 or sumthin like that.......we were always capable of scoring......and btw this was a match where had van persie scored the peanalty and equalled i beieve the match wud have turned out 2 be much much different......

  • @Nestocafe being a man city fan, i simply laugh at united 1-6

  • @mrsladegreen how much premierleague titles do you have?how much champions league do you have?how much fa cup do you have?.........when you are the same level(19 premierleague titles,3 champions league,11 fa cup)as we are then you can talk

  • Comment removed

  • I believe im not that well informed.. but how come only 2 substitutes are available?

  • amazing match, From a LFC supporter..

    Well done Arsenal.

  • My favourite match :)

  • Im not an Arsenal fan but I remember enjoying watching this. When you look at the way George Graham behaved at the end, with dignity and respect, at the biggest moment of his career its a shame that he tarnished himself later at Highbury.

  • How crucial was the lack of a backpass rule then? No way Arsenal would have scored had it been in place. Lukic would have tonked it into touch.

  • Happy days. I was there. Never to be repeated no matter how much Sky would love it!

  • @PerfectYellowTone If you were there, then you are truly a lucky bastard.

  • It may be a myth but one story I always heard that at the replayed FA Cup semi between Liverpool and Forest, when Brian Laws scored an own goal that horrible twat Aldridge went over and ruffled his hair. So at the end of this match, Tony Adams did the same to Aldridge and said 'that's for Brian Laws, you cunt'.

  • 8:15 love how the kop is pouring out

  • Never forget this night I believe it was a Friday but could be wrong

    Still get goosebumps watching this

    I was 12 at the time

    I'm saying this as a Chelsea fan

    We had just gained promotion from the old division 2 with 99 points

    So all round this was a great time as i can't stand Liverpool because back then all the kids in my class supported Liverpool

    And I used to get hammered for supporting Chelsea .

  • I am not much of an arsenal fan but i love to see Liverpool loose

  • i still to this day get goose bumps watching this and i was 22 at the time...lol

  • @RobinVanPersie119, until you get veterans that fit the system and actually get a defense with a good center and fullback you will never get back to the glory days. As a United fan we got young players but most of them have played 4 plus years like Nani, Anderson, Rooney. Then we got actual young players with experience like Young, Jones and have our academy players like Welbeck and Cleverley. Also, you don't have mental toughness like United. Until that happens you won't win a trophy.

  • 7:51 - kenny is thinking ''plan B we'll have to rob it'

  • As a united fan, I find this to be amazing :D

  • Pisss off Kenny

  • which is best - "some people are the pitch, they think its all over" OR "its up for grabs now". No contest.......

    One minute, one minute, one minute.......

  • PASSBACK!!!!

  • @Covelio,it was legal back then. I know I saw that.

  • arselickers fc.

    

  • Good Save by GROBBELAAR 7:27 - he basicly sat on the floor - YOU HAVE TO BE BLIND AND STUPID NOT TO SEE THIS IS WHEN HE WAS GETTING HIS BRIBES - CUNT

  • well that was the score today guys with the king as manager again 2-0 to us was it?

  • Have you heard of the European Cup...

  • picked up a back pass lol

  • hmm only 2 subs on the bench in those days?

  • Wenger and the whole team must watch this before every game to see the true meaning of perseverance and determination if they want to win something this year. ARSENAL Till I Die!!!

  • Well said, my friend...

  • @Gunn3rBG i think they did. and i think they were inspired, and I think our form these past several months reflects this. ONE ARSENAL!!!

  • Up the Arsenal! COYG! FOYS!

  • Oh God how I miss those moments... Arsenal plz do it again this season, win the title again and never give it back!

  • 7.40 - it cost peanuts then for an unforgettable, indescribable terrace experience like this (excluding all the money I spent on going to see 0-0 draws with Bolton Wanderers). I thought nothing could top the end of the 79 FA Cup Final. I was well wrong.

  • Whatay pass from Tony Adams!

  • "That's for Brian Laws, you cunt"

  • Eat shite you scouse cunts

  • 7:51 Jacek Gmoch :D

  • WHY THE F*** WASNT I ALIVE TO SEE THIS :@ this is epic.

  • ARSENAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • just wishing you was here cuz R.I.P

  • Look at Kenny Daglish faces...

  • Aldridge is a prick...

  • was at this game, on the kop. huge respect for arsenal for comin to anfield and doin that..... there will never be an ending to a season like that again.

  • This was the peak of football and it more or less died since.....which means that life more or less died since.

  • @SimonDolan nonsence! i loved the football in the 90s! now its dead not then

  • john aldridge is dick on radio city 96.7

  • My heart still skipped a beat despite already know the results in final seconds

  • got to be one of the biggest upsets in English football, never forget that one, nor will most of the Mickeys

  • look what a cunt john aldridge was at the end and still is a cunt to this today. Horrible man.

  • come on take it into the corner barnesy u could have been on 19 by now PMSL mufc :)

  • For a title decider, the commentators don't seem that bothered really.

  • If this was our current arsenal team, we would have lost the lead at Liverpool's chance at 91 mins. *Sighs*

  • I remember this like it was yesterday. What a shame the current Arsenal team don't play like this.

    Hat-tip to arseblog.com for the link to this video. It's fuckin' excellent.

  • 22 years ago today! One of the greatest nights in our history! Arsenal Arsenal FC Were're by far the greatest team the world has ever seen!

  • FEVER PITCH!!!!!!!!! Hello all you Gooners out there!

  • 22 years ago today!.Simply one of the greatest days of my life.

  • MAGIC!

  • Unfortunately the current Arsenal side in this same situation would go 2-0 up in the 92nd minute and it would still finish 2-1. Probably 2-3, in fact.

  • I was born in the wrong decade.

  • 22 years today.

  • does Ian Rush look like a typical scouser or what ?? ay ay

  • Comment removed

  • @birdynumnumski You ignorant slut, he's Welsh. Born and raised in Flint.

  • @RichieMann don't give a fuck where he was born and raised, he LOOKS like a typical scouser, his garage is full of hubcaps, Go you GUNNERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @RichieMann ok la ?

  • Goosebumps

  • 22 years ago today , class , best ever

  • football = king of all sports

  • GO GUNNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless.

  • Look at 4:18 you see the goal go in. To the right are the Arsenal fans, celebratin', as you do. To the left are the Liverpool fans... And it appears that one Arsenal fan has managed to get amongst them. If you look closely, he's quickly spotted by the scousers, who point at him and that.

  • @calumstarkey well spotted

  • @calumstarkey :D Nice find.

  • @calumstarkey yeah aha hes a legend he didnt even jump up and down just casually put his hands in the air lol

  • @calumstarkey tickets for that game were like gold dust mate trust me my dad was at the match and he only managed to get one an hour before kick off

  • @calumstarkey So the scousers should...jesus are you trying to comment that the scousers are doing something bad by that?

  • @DMarriott81 Not at all... Where did you get that idea from? It appears that you're just looking for a reason to complain.

  • Me too. Liverpool very gracious in defeat. Most exciting finish ever. God bless all

  • im from izmir - turkiye n watched this from greek tv next day in b&w when i was a kid. i miss those days sometimes. forza KsK 35.5

  • DAglish 1989 & daglish 2012 .............the gooners are comin` baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack

  • David Bleat = twat.

  • lol their goalkeeper can use their hand to catch ball whenever their own players back pass

  • I'm a Liverpool fan... and i have to say... well done to arsenal..

  • Oh God, I cried watching this ... what a miracle title

  • Fever Pitch

  • Lol John Barnes and Steve Mcmahon are both football pundits in Singapore and Malaysia now..Mcmahon is now bald :P

  • rip rocky my cousin gone but never forgotten

  • @youngarockz good kid, your cousin.....great footballer.

  • Michael Thomas = England's Bobby Thomson. Let's hope Arsenal don't need a goal like that today. Up the Gunners!

  • love how that yid cunt PLEAT just shut his little trap as thomas scored the greatest goal in arsenal's history.

  • Comment removed

  • It's up for grabs now.

  • I watched it live, still gives me goose bumps. Sorry spuds, don't guess you'll ever know how it feels... unless you're old. 50 year anniversary this year, congratulations losers!

  • YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! :O)

  • What was John Aldridge doing, graceless cunt

  • Greatest match in the history of world football without a doubt! It seems like Anfield is the place to be when it comes to title deciders. 0-2 Arsenal, 0-2 Chelsea

  • "It's up for grabs noooow!"

    Best ever finish to a season

  • Comment removed

  • "And we have the most dramatic, maybe in the history of the football league."

    Commentator called it. The chances of the EPL season finishing like this again on the last day in the final minute are next to none.

  • This day football had a rebirth and all hooliganism from football in England ended

  • THIS

    IS

    FOOTBALL

  • Beautiful game ..beautiful night..will never ever forget it.Thank you my beloved Arsenal.

  • Two subs!

  • David Pleat = Big Dumb Donkey

  • was great to see the kopshites suffer that night fuck you!

  • 21 Spurs fans voted on this clip

  • @TheElisabethPage 24 now

  • @TheElisabethPage arnt they known as scum?

  • Thank you thank you thank you Micheal Thomas for the greatest night of my life. ARSENAL F C THE SCOUSE BUSTERS !

  • such sensible comment from the bung king, George Graham: we have been written off by the newspapers, there is no pressure on us. we will try to keep a clean sheet and see what happens. prophetic stuff.

  • Alan Hansen is still in trauma after 22 years.

  • so funnt how they signed Thomas after this too

  • best game ive ever seen as an arsenal supporter...so dramatic.....and liverpool fans were very sporting after the match. George graham was a brilliant manager.....he supposed to have stuck newspaper articles that read arsenal have no chance...he didnt need much of a team talk after that!.

  • Can you imagine Wenger playing five at the back for a game like this? No chance. Georgie knew his onions. Keep it tight at the back, nick two goals. Glorious.

  • fuckin beautiful

  • Maybe King Kenny regrets not playing Beardsley from the start cos there was always a chance he could nick i'd have had him from the start and gone 4-5-1 to pack the midfield with beardsley playing just in front of the 4 in midfield and that's where thomas's(The bastard) goal WAS made from midfield there wouldn't of been any out and out wingers the full backs would push up to get the crosses in and there would be 4 cen midfields across the park if we played like that we'd be celebrating a chaship

  • Grobbalaar was quite useless for the two goals. I wonder???????? The day I stopped taking football so seriously

  • Comment removed

  • WHY DO PLAYERS WHO DO NOT PLAY IN CUP FINALS DON'T GET A MEDAL A PLAYER COULD OF PLAYED IN EVERY ROUND AND SCORED GOALS TO GET HIS TEAM TO THE FINAL BUT THEN HE'S INJURED FOR THE FINAL HE WOULDN'T GET A MEDAL BUT IF A PLAYER DOESN'T PLAY IN THE FINAL LEAGUE MATCH HE'LL STILL GET A CHAMPIONSHIP MEDAL IF THEY WIN LEAGUE PROVIDED HE'S PLAYED ENOUGH GAMES SO THE SAME SHOULD GO FOR CUP FINALS I KNOW A LOT OF PLAYERS WOULDN'T WANT ONE IF THEY DIDN'T PLAY IN THE FINAL BUT I WOULD IF I PLAYED A PT EARLY

  • @DAJAZDJ1 cool story bro

  • WHY OH WHY DID BARNES NOT TAKE THAT BALL INTO THE CORNER AND JUST HOLD IT THERE INSTEAD OF RUNNING TOWARDS GOAL AND LOSING IT WHICH SET UP THERE GOAL WHEN HE HAD IT DEEP IN INJURY TIME JUST BEFORE THERE GOAL HE WOULD OF RUN THE CLOCK DOWN IF HE'D JUST GONE TO THE CORNER PUT HIS FOOT ON THE BALL AND SHEILED IT SO THEY COULDN'T GET IT THE WHISTLE WOULD OF GONE WE'D BE CHAMPS BARNES SHOULD BE CREDITED WITH AN ASSIST FOR THAT LAST MINUTE GOAL

  • as a man united fan and sort of neutral, perhaps this was the biggest result in english LEAGUE football ? there hasn't been a game thats been this important has there?

  • @tommyaw123 wether you are right or wrong, fuck off you manc scum!

  • @AFCFinch haha dont be jealous you cockney prick

    18 league titles, 11 FA Cups, 3 European Cups, what you got ? hahahahaha

  • @tommyaw123 jealous, jealous of what? your clubs run by manks 99% of your fans are foreign & glory supporters, you've never won the league at any of your rivals grounds and youve never gone 49 games unbeaten, anyone can win cups through luck etc but it takes a real team to go a whole season and more without losing. been to more games this season than you will ever watch in your armchair you mong! jog on

  • @AFCFinch Your clubs run by Yanks*

  • @AFCFinch oh yea the invincibles? that would be the Arsenal team who got beat by Man United in the FA Cup Semi Final, Inter Milan 3 nil at home (CL), Dynamo Kiev 2 - 1 away (CL), Chelsea 3-2 (CL Semi), Middlesborough at home 1-0 League Cup first leg, and 2-1 away

    So just to recap for the 2003 - 2004 season the INVINCIBLE Arsenal team lost 6 games.

    99% of our fans are foreign? haha a lovely little myth made up by City fans that,

    Born and bred manc and season ticket holder. Your season is OVER

  • @tommyaw123 the invincibles was only recorded through the league season, yeah you can have you trebles and all that shite, but at the end of the day weve got more chance of winning the treble than you going 49 games unbeaten :) as for the foreign comment, MUFC mumbai turned up in numbers at the fa cup match, dont think i heard an english person, never mind a manc.

  • @AFCFinch oh deary me I think that just about completes my argument when you say "trebles and all that shite" what a sad prick you are, what's better, The Premier League trophy, the European Cup and the FA Cup or a "special commemorative trophy from the FA congratulating arsenal in going through the league unbeaten. hmmm doesn't take a bitter Arsenal fan much to work that one out

    what was it the spurs fans were singing when they knocked AC out the CL ? "Are you watching Arsenal?!" hahahahahahah

  • @tommyaw123 Id rather have something no one else will ever have a sniff at,not even man united. tbh spurs had an easier draw, we fucked it up in the group stages so we only have ourselves to blame, think barcelona is a much bigger team than ac milan to be quite honest, and we beat the same more or less milan team 2-0 away from home. It aint all about trophies, id much rather support a team where you have just as many ups as you do downs, because it really shows how good our fans are.

  • @AFCFinch never had a sniff at?! United had a sniff this season

    which is rarer? the Treble or unbeaten season? Answer - the treble

    (Real) Treble winners - Man United

    Unbeaten in the league - Arsenal and Preston

    its like arguin with a city fan this, keep shootin you down

  • @tommyaw123 united had no chance, no where near as good as that 03/04 arsenal team, fact!

    unbeaten season has only been done twice and once when a season was only 22 games long, we did 49.

    treble has been done many times, barcelona did the sextuple few seasons ago, did they go unbeaten a whole season? no, so i think an unbeaten season and more, is a lot more rare than a treble, thank you good night

  • @AFCFinch oh dear you've clearly lost the battle when you start talking about European leagues, whats your next comback?

    Clueless, get yourself educated son when you start a debate with someone who evidently knows a hell of a lot more than you do

  • @tommyaw123 lol you've clearly lost the battle when you start going off the subject, since when we're we only talking about in england? fact of the matter is barcelona and the likes with all these great teams they've had have NEVER gone unbeaten a whole season, yet they've done the treble and bettered it, even with the current barcelona team with messi xavi etc etc, they haven't gone unbeaten, so yes, an unbeaten season is more rare.

  • @tommyaw123 So infact you evidently don't know a hell of a lot more than me if you think a treble is rarer you wrong'un. Just to recap on this, preston went 22 games unbeaten, which was a full season in those days which can i add was 112 years ago, arsenal went 49 games unbeaten, which in terms of when preston did it, 2 seasons and 5 games. Even you lot went more games unbeaten than preston.

  • @AFCFinch oh deary me, I would take the European Cup or the premier league title on its own above an unbeaten league season.

    Fact of the matter is from the start of the FOOTBALL season to the end, Arsenal LOST 6 games, that must really hurt you deep down.

    Really can't wait for Spurs to spank you at whitehart lane and end your last chance of a trophy this season, meanwhile United are still fighting for all 3. That must make you feel sick

  • @tommyaw123 well we actually won the league during the unbeaten season if you forgot that.

    yeh we lost 6 games outside the league, but still no one has gone 49 league games unbeaten. nothing makes me feel sick, im proud of who i support, im proud to say ive been to 34 games this season, following them in europe win or lose, couldnt give a flying fuck about united or anyone else. we were the most successful club in england, but like all things it comes to end, same will happen to you yanks
