Highlights reel

[cwmbrancity]

BBC has been reshowing the few Wales international glories during quarantine. Germany 1991, Italy 2002, errrrr........Euro ‘16? Good moments, but turgid overall.

If you can be arsed, lob up any game highlights of your favourite wins, losses or draws. Any teams, any level. Gloating is entirely permissible. Try & keep them succinct.

To start (wanna save Cardiff v Leeds for later) & no scouse allegiances through neutrality, this during a full moon 24 years ago was insane. Soz @kakapo, if you hadn’t mentioned black & white loyalism somewhere it wouldn’t have twinged my synapses

The Liverpool 4-3 is always seen as the iconic moment of that season, but we were already behind manu at that point and it's the 1-0 at home to them a month earlier that sticks in most Geordies heads.  We absolutely hammered them, Schmeichel somehow kept them in the game with one of his best ever performances and then Cantona scored.  That was the real key point in the season.  I remember going into the town centre on my school lunchbreak on the Monday after and it was like everyone's mam had died.  There's a myth that it was Newcastle's defence that was our achille's heel that season, and the 4-3 is often cited as evidence.  It wasn't, our defence was one of the best in the league.   Sometimes football does just come down to luck, it would be pretty boring if it didn't. See also the 2-1 loss against Blackburn.  We hammered them, and then journeyman Graham Fenton, born on Tyneside and lifelong newcastle fan, scores two late goals.  It was the only thing of note he did in his entire career.

Everyone loves this goal, mostly because you get to see the luxurious mane on Giggsy's chest.

The second leg of the semi-final against Juve wasn't half bad either

[cwmbrancity]

Speaking of Juve, there’s a better version with less diving histrionics which won’t embed, but what a goal from Zidane to win the final itself. Scorchio eth eth eth-eth:

 

[cwmbrancity]

A night of carnage. Rio F off clobbered, Alan Pob Smith’s red card & a winner at the death. Cue chaos.

 

[chenGOD]

Savage tackle on Ferdinand, and Smiths “elbow to the face” was soft as hell. But it’s Leeds, so fuck’em. 

[cwmbrancity]

Aye, Jimmy Savile country.....

After a 104 year wait, my team, Bodø/Glimt finally won the Norwegian Premier League.

Read the NYT article and the article in The National News an even the piece in Kicker before you LOL.

His post-match press conference was top Mourinho trash talking his own team.

Mou. Madder than ever.
