Trophy: FA Cup
Hosted at the Home of Football, Cardiff City were no match for the winners as the Blades’ Fred Tunstall’s 30th-minute effort was enough to seal the victory. Nearly 92,000 avid match-goers were in attendance to see the Yorkshire-based outfit travel home with the glory, though the now Premier League side have been yearning for another trophy ever since. There are more pressing issues for Chris Wilder's side at the moment as Sheffield United look nailed on for relegation back to the second tier...
Trophy: FA Cup
In the 74th instalment of the FA Cup, Manchester City – back when their cabinet was not stacked with countless trophies – squared up with Newcastle United at Wembley Stadium. A trio of goals from Jackie Milburn, Bobby Johnstone and Bobby Mitchell was enough to drown out Bobby Johnstone’s first-half equaliser. Eddie Howe’s outfit had the chance to end their trophy drought in February 2023 when they met Manchester United in the Carabao Cup final, but they fell to a 2-0 defeat. With the new-foun...
Trophy: Division One
Before 1992, the Premier League was known as Division One, which means that Burnley were once the champions of England. It was the second time in their storied history that they had run out victors of England’s top tier, but interestingly, only sat in the top spot on the last day thanks to their 2-1 victory against Manchester City. The side’s top goalscorer over the course of the season was John Connelly, with 20 of his 24 goals coming in the league. Vincent Kompany did lead the Clarets to th...
Trophy: League Cup
Wolves entered the affair as the underdogs considering they were facing the reigning League Cup winners and European champions, Nottingham Forest. Level on points in the league, however, the Old Gold knew the win was there for the taking and so, courtesy of a 67th-minute Andy Gray finish past the legendary Peter Shilton, they ran out 1–0 victors. Their most recent win before 1980 came six years earlier in the same competition, but they have had little to no luck emulating the success since. I...
Trophy: League Cup
A five-goal thriller played out back in 1988 as Premier League new boys Luton and Arsenal battled it out for League Cup glory. Luton opened the scoring early, but it then took until the 71st minute for a flurry of goals to come about. The north Londoners’ match dominance paid off as two quickfire strikes in three minutes saw them take the lead with 15 minutes of normal time to play. Fear not, though, as Brian Stein’s second of the encounter and Danny Wilson’s last-gasp winner sent the Kenilwo...
Trophy: League Cup
On the 30th anniversary of the League Cup, Nottingham Forest and Oldham went toe-to-toe in what would be the former’s most recent major trophy win. Forest’s Des Walker was awarded the Man of the Match gong but had Nigel Jemson to thank for scoring the only goal of the game. Let’s not forget that just a decade prior, Forest were crowned European champions two times on the bounce and became a dominant force in doing so. Since then, that has not been the case. Long gone are the days of Brian Clo...
Trophy: FA Cup
The Merseyside outfit have been a staple part of the Premier League since its inception in 1992, having not been relegated in that period. That being said, their last major triumph came almost 30 years ago, as Everton lifted the FA Cup in 1995. It was none other than Manchester United that fell at the feet of the Toffees on that day as Paul Rideout’s headed goal secured the win. As expected, their opponents dominated the rest of the final, though not to avail. Cheslea defeated Everton in the...
Trophy: League Cup
Having won the trophy just two years prior, Leeds United were no match for the high-flying Aston Villa side, who won 3-0. A dominant first-half display saw Villa enter the break 1-0 to the good, but goals from Ian Taylor and Dwight Yorke in the second stage of the game tied up a sweet victory. Equalling Liverpool’s record set in the competition, this occasion marked Villa’s fifth success in the League Cup. Now employing a serial winner in European competition in Unai Emery, there is a chance...
Trophy: League Cup
There’s a longstanding running joke among football fans that Tottenham Hotspur are immune to winning trophies. Their last major honour victory came back in 2008 as they defeated London rivals Chelsea 2-1 in the League Cup final. Didier Drogba smashed in a free-kick to take the lead in the 39th minute, but Tottenham’s persistence paid off. Goals from Spurs duo Dimitar Berbatov and Jonathan Woodgate, who was awarded Man of the Match, fired them into the lead. A fresh era under Ange Postecoglou...
Trophy: FA Cup
Officially known as the Heads-Up FA Cup final, capital club foes Arsenal and Chelsea played behind closed doors (due to COVID-19) to figure out who would be taking the fabled trophy home with them. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was at the double as Christian Pulisic’s early goal was cancelled out in a 2-1 Arsenal success. Growing frustrated as the game ran away from them, Chelsea’s Mateo Kovacic picked up his second yellow card of the day to receive his marching orders from Anthony Taylor. Arsena...
