I was reading the comments on an unrelated video where a mentally challenged was bemoaning being cheated in this particular League cup final. I was only a year old at the time and it's a game I hadn't ever seen before so I took the opportunity to watch it.
Going by the highlights it was a very intense game but I was wondering where the apparent cheating claim derived from. On the 84th minute we got the penalty to retake the lead and they obviously lost their heads and quite rightly got two men sent off. The saying of "always cheated, never defeated" has remained so apt for them throughout the decades.
Who was there and what is your recollection of the game? With 74,000 fans in attendance, the place must have been bouncing.
