I was 16 when we went up to Anfield and snatched the league title off Liverpool. Am so proud to be an Arsenal fan for fifty years.

I´m a German Arsenal fan for nearly 30 years .

[@lewiyonas3255]

Gunner fans love to talk about winning the league at white hart lane or even old trafford which is spectacular, but to win it at ANFIELD? At the peak of their powers? Under these circumstances? Really crazy

[@mazza8576]

Nah, Liverpool had Hillsborough 5 weeks earlier. Players were absolutely fucked. They had cup final on a Saturday, went to extra time. Then had to play West ham on a Tuesday then this game on a Friday. That is fucking brutal.

[@Seanc74]

To be fair it’s an age thing imo. Anfield was bigger because of both could win the title but as you know Liverpool only had to match Arsenal where as Arsenal had to win by at least 2 clear. This at fortress Anfield where *NOBODY* won 0-2. Arsenal kept their nerve especially Michael….. Thanks *Arsenal*

[@Seanc74]

@@mazza8576 ​ the hammers got brushed aside with ease by Liverpool, they never got out of 1st gear. Arsenal had to go and get 2 goals v Liverpool a fantastic team, in fact“the best” for many years. Everyone apart from Arsenal wanted Liverpool to win for their fans because of the Hillsborough disaster. Liverpool settled for a 0-1 loss which most would considering that would have been enough but Arsenal wanted their second to get that title after 18yrs…

Need a repeat of this on Sunday come on Gunners🔥🔥

[@frankbrodie5168]

I remember popping the TV on to watch this game live. Knowing that Liverpool were going to win the title. So I was just eating my dinner as it progressed. (I dislike Liverpool more than I like my own team. As a Sheffield Wednesday supporter I'd sooner see Sheffield United win the title for the next 100 years if it stopped Liverpool winning the title once.) Last few minutes and it was edge of the seat stuff. Thomas knocked that goal in. And I was standing at the bar of my local pub (only 100 paces away from my own front door to be fair) ordering a pint within about 30 seconds of the goal. I don't think I stopped celebrating for about a week.

[@smartwhip.]

That finish for the 2nd goal was insane

[@wevertonrodrigues1572]

Aqui no Brasil passou um filme esses dias falando sobre esse jogo , peguei o filme quase no fim , por isso não sei o nome dele .

When football was fantastic!

[@ericmuller845]

I'm an Arsenal fan since 2005 (even being Brazilian) and I'm reading that pitch fever book. I have to admit I got some tear in my eyes reading the part talking about this game. I had to watch this to feel at least a little of this championship. What a game, what a team an what a club! I'll be a gooner forever!

[@CRN8091]

Football was the best back then.Unfortunately money has ruined it, can’t get tickets now, expensive kit every year, crap clubs buying success, VAR.take me back.

Was working in Qatar in May 1989, even Qatar tv realised the importance of this match and screened it. What a match and what a result😂 COYG

[@frankbrodie5168]

That stashe of Rush is sublime. It's both a fine example of a 'copper tashe' and a 'scouser tashe' at the same time. Whilst Ian Rush was neither a policman or indeed from Liverpool.

[@mrkipling2201]

I remember me and my Dad watching it in our living room live on television. When Smith scored my Dad said “ Arsenal are going to do it “. Don’t know why but I knew as well.

[@EpicTube84]

I'm here because of Steve Nicol hate on Arsenal, everyone comments he still mad because of 1989

Closest league title ever period, not aguero ,this is it

[@jamesdshannon99]

True, and I’m a Liverpool supporter. If this was anytime between 1992/93 to present, it would overshadow that simply because of the phrase “Premier League”

[@johnsmiths9682]

Even back then they were saying that that the anfield atmosphere was flat, so much for the best fans in the world.....

[@smartwhip.]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lewiyonas3255]

This was Man city 2012 before man city 2012 except the two teams actually played each other on the final day

[@andyhello23]

Nothing like it. Liverpool were the best team on earth at the time, and they had the kop, the biggest football stand on earth. Liverpool back then were totally dominating english football. What arsenal did that night and season, was so special, they even turned it into a movie, fever pitch. What man city did was beat a dying team in man utd, and man city had all the money in the world. Arsenal in 1989, had average players and virtually brought no players, most were local lads. Thats the reason 1989 what arsenal did, was made into a film. It was the first time anfield, the home of liverpool had dark clouds over it, liverpool totally dominated football back then. The 1989 finish by arsenal, was the best finish ever to a league anywhere. 1st playing second, and arsenal had to win by 2 clear goals at anfield, the fortress of the best team on planet earth, in front of the best fans on planet earth, ie the liverpool kop. First time anfield had a dark cloud over it.

You can’t compare anything that man city have done what Liverpool, Arsenal and Man Utd have done.it’s all fake.

[@GrantMC100]

Hahaha, should never have been played. So its ok for Liverpool to play an extended cup final on the sunday, away to west ham on wednesday and arsenal on FRIDAY. No chance Liverpool also had many commitments following Hillsborough. This of course whilst arsenal had ten days to rest. Had Liverpool been allowed to rest too, Liverpool would have won the title.

[@enweremdivinehenrychukwuka4946]

The reaction wasn't what I expected. What stopped the fans from invading the pitch? Or was it a bad editing?

[@harvickfan100]

There were still 2 minutes to play of stoppage time after the 2nd goal.

[@bodofrohlich3265]

you do not show the complete play move to the goal !!but 9 minutes boring !!!

[@FerenswayRecords]

Awful editing. Why are so many KZbin football videos like this?

[@steffanhoffmann]

Rubbish. Disjointed. No passing sequences. No excitement for the final goal. Should be deleted off KZbin
