I am Austrian, 12 years young back then ... I was a SUPER LEEDS UNITED FAN! Loved their game - and notice - it was 1975 - sooo different to "know" or "watch" a foreign soccer club ... and I love all the super players ... in that time LEEDS UNITED just had only NATIONAL TEAM PLAYERS in the team! England - Wales - Scotland - Northern Ireland - Ireland - just heroes in the team! And remember or let you tell you (younger readers :-) ) WE HAD THAT SUPER-SEMIFINAL: REAL MADRID - BAYERN MÜNCHEN ... FC BARCELONA - LEEDS UNITED .... Bayern went over Real Madrid - Leeds went over Barcelona ... LEEDS UNITED was the super-big favourite for the final in Paris vs Bayern ... LEEDS dominated the whole match ... Bayern came 2-times in front of the LEEDS goalkeeper ... and scored 2 goals ... well ... then the Leeds fans or "fans" droped down to the field their plastic seats ... and MY SUPER CLUB WAS BANNED FROM INTERNATIONAL GAMES for years ... all the stars left LEEDS UNITED of course ... A SUPER TIME OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL ... Ajax ... Bayern ... Leeds ... Barcelona .... Real ... I WILL ALWYS REMEMBER MY STARS OF FOOTBAL IN THESE 1970s ... ♥

Magic?? The defenders stupidly used to go all way backwards to defend against long high balls shot from midfield, instead of establishing an offside line. And terrible passing precision, the pitch was not so bad and the ball was already made out of polymers, but the players were playing as if they were in a horse corral and as the ball were a coconut.

My Dad supported Leeds, I supported Burnley at age 12, we would go to Leeds one week, Burnley the next. Kids would stand right on the wall literally about 6 feet from the touchline, Ralph Coates and Steve Kindon flying down the wing almost within touching distance. Burnley had a great team tehn fantastic attacking football. Moved to London when I was 18 and started supporting West Ham, Moore, Hurst, Billy Bonds, more great players. We would stand on the North Bank crammed in, the crowd swaying, moving up and down when there was a shot or a save, singing Bubbles, the adrenaline was incredible. They killed the game for me when it went all seating, just not the same now.

Lorimer said "Cheating is the only way to describe what went on at the Parc de Princes 40 years ago. Sorry if that offends anyone but it’s how we felt. When it comes to apportioning blame, you’ve got to point the finger at the referee first and foremost. Great player though he was, Beckenbauer was well known for getting in the ears of referees. It’s what he did. I’d seen it when he played for Bayern and I’d seen it when he played for Germany. I’m still convinced that he was responsible for persuading the officials to disallow my goal in the second half. Uli Hoeness, their forward, was interviewed on TV and asked about 1975. In his own words, he said that the result was a travesty. The better team lost and they lost for no other reason than the performance of the referee. I can’t disagree.”

Apart from the tackles I’d bet on him, the defending was shambolic in that era

[@suffern63]

@@dujuan9646 Yes,but the tackles,well not the tackles the brutal fouls,are the problem.If thugs kick you on the knee every game then in the end you get injured and of course you score less goals as you can't run with a broken leg.Messi would have been a genius in any age but it was a different game,with different rules,different pitches and different kit back then.

PFF! Right from the start the man tells us that Leeds Utd got through . . . I was hoping o be surprised without knowing the outcome before watching

You've won 9 trophies mate. 53 less than Man Utd. You call having three times less titles than Sunderland and less than 10 trophies history?

[@daniellindsay1887]

Sam Crofts You're a bell end mate! Can you not think of more productive way to spend your time, rather than your empty words and insults?

[@samcrofts789]

Takes the same amount of time to reply to me as it does to comment, so can YOU not find anything productive to do? I'm just giving the facts mate!

[@stevebird7265]

Notice how few times the ball is passed backwards, or how the players do not dive and feign injury. This is how football was meant to be played, not the boring technical shit we have to watch today.

[@StrasseBerlin]

Well stated. I truly prefer football from this era as opposed to the pass, pass, pass crap served up in this era. There is more thrilling action in 22 minutes in this video than in most European matches in 90 minutes.

[@tommyrjensen]

Yes, there ought to be rules: 1. the ball can only be passed forwards, and 2. no player should be able to control/hit/pass a standard ball in any controlled way. You will be happy.

[@terranceparsons5185]

Cruyff, the "greatest player in the world" played the first minute in the 1974 WCF and mailed it in over both legs of this tie.

[@leedsutd67]

i had to listen to the match on BBC radio as we didn't have a TV at home i can still hear the commentator describe Billy Bremner kicking the ball off the line in last few minutes.

[@anthonyleighton4754]

The days when European teams used to buy the refs rolexes etc.

[@grimupnorth]

Not quite right. Brain Moore quite clearly says that the ref is 'looking at his Austrian watch' towards the end of the game! Didn't even know they made 'em!

[@meenbee6853]

OH how I do miss a good kicking match, the good old days.

[@erniescullion8452]

Franz Beckenbauer said Leeds shouldve WON against BAYERN due to bad decisions against Leeds he is right. I'm a Liverpool fan would love to see Leeds Wolves ManCity Newcastle NOTTINGHAM FOREST Tottenham HOTSPUR & Villa ETC ETC. do well in EUROPEAN FOOTBALL

Bremner was Leeds United's greatest soldier. He took the knocks without crying and could give as good as he got. Will never see another like him in a Leeds United shirt in my lifetime.

[@pigstrotters7010]

I don't want to sound racist, but the Latins are world champions at provoking when they realise they can't win a game fairly. The problem is, we always fall for it. And that's what McQueen did. Same with Beckham. Simeone admitted later trying to get Beckham sent off by over-reacting to the kick and then, along with other members of his team, urging the referee to send him off. Then the wink from Ronaldo as Rooney got (rightly) sent off. The "best" ones were Neymar alias "Rawhide" in 2018 (rolling, rolling, rolling )and Rivaldo in 2002 (getting the ball passed to him for a corner, hits him on the shins, falls over holding his head). The Italians also got Zidane sent off by disgusting provokation.

[@Sidneyyoungblood75]

And now the Brits have followed suit. The things that Britain was renowned for, is no longer. Hard working. Resilient. Honest. Strong backbone. Stoic. Now we are weak, lazy, spineless, cheating, spoilt and wanting the glory without the work or responsibility. Wonder what the cause is? 🤔🤔

A wonderful strike from McQueen

[@CB-xr1eg]

And what a stupid thing for McQueen to do, letting the Barca player wind him up and retaliating, earning himself a red card.

What are you talking about?The commentary is clear and you can listen over and over again.He says "Whether he connected or not,i couldn't tell you" So the legend that is B Moore didn't question the decision of the ref.I question why you would write that when it's clearly untrue?
