Man Utd v Liverpool 1977 FA Cup Final (Extended Highlights)

[@rickharpham5794]

This is the day I fell in love with Utd. I had supported them from birth (thanks to my big brothers) but this game cemented them in my heart forever. Me and my mate broke my brothers settee jumping up and down on it. 11 year old at the time and it still brings a tear to my eye. Thank you Utd

[@kehindea]

I watched this live on tv in Nigeria as we had just moved there earlier that year. I had this Utd kit though not the cup final edition and my favourite players from that era were Gordon Hill, Lou Macari and Steve Coppell

[@lukesters7234]

Me too…exact same match…but the other way round. I had no idea who either team were or their relative levels. I remember it to this day…..started watching when Utd were one up and for some reason I thought that Liverpool must be underdogs so decided to root for them. Then Jimmy Case scored to equalise before Jimmy Greenough fluke deflection won it. Even at 7 years old and in-spite of being beaten I decided then that Liverpool would be my team….in hindsight that was the right decision given we won the European Cup 4 days later and how the teams performed for the next 13 years. My childhood was spent celebrating title after title…..not so much after I was twenty but by that time I could be more philosophical about it. I also broke my Mums settee when Kenny Dalglish scored the winner against Bruges in the European Cup the following year. My Dad was a rugby fan so didn’t have a team he supported to influence me so it was always going to be my choice. Who knows if I hadn’t happened upon this game how it would have been. Dread to think cos Leeds are the nearest team to where I grew up *shudders*

[@sunnyjim1355]

I was 12 at the time, and this VICTORY meant the world to me, for three major reasons. 1) Winning the FA Cup. Duh! 2) Had lost the 1976 final to some club called Soufton, or something. So, redemption. 3) My bullying, elder sister was a Liverpool fan... so her running up the stairs, slamming her bedroom door, and 😭 😭 😭 😭 😭 = one of my best childhood memories. 😁

[@tonyhalsall3170]

I was there and only 16 years old at the time. What a day - great memories.

[@WallieTheRed]

Jealous of that. The old man waxes lyrical about that day. And many others in the 70s and 80s

[@mnd1955]

It was a tense day all right. I was in student digs in Islington and a few mates came down from Manchester on the Friday night. That Liverpool team was pretty awesome. They'd won the league and were off to the European Cup final. We had been beaten by Southampton the year before and played a totally different style to Bob Paisley's team. But there was just something about United and my gut feeling that we'd win never went away, even after Case equalized. We scored our second before they could start to turn the screw and that night, we got utterly plastered. A few days later, we cheered on Liverpool as they won in Rome. United fans cheering for Liverpool to win says it all about that amazing time. Soon after, the Doc was gone. I still maintain that he'd have brought the 1st Division title to Old Trafford by 1980 had he been allowed to stay and finish what he'd started.

[@anglowarrior3871]

Only 2 years old at the time so can't actually remember it,but without doubt one of my favourite games in United history.

[@johnruby147]

Still say the atmosphere at the old Wembley was miles better than it is at the new Wembley . The long walk from the tunnel to under the Royal Box , , Captain going up first to collect the Cup , none of that silly dancing players do now when they win a Cup

Agreed, the new Wembley is pants!

[@justinmcquaide4862]

The FA cup final meant so much back in those days , it was an all day affair from watching the build up from start to finish. They had cameras at the hotels the teams were staying at it was absolutely brilliant !

[@paulbradshaw303]

Fab memories. Good cup final, very promising United side against great Liverpool side. Really think United would have kicked on if they had stayed with Docherty but we will never know

[@SMSJSC]

True, The Doc built a really fine young team. Such a shame it ended the way it did.

[@kehindea]

Utd are an interesting team very manager focused. The players ran through brick walls for their beloved managers but meh with the dud ones lol. Docherty mad me love Utd and Atkinson was my favourite manager before the Scottish genius came to the club haha.

[@sunnyjim1355]

@@edmundpower1250 Since your comment I've recently consulted 'The Infallible Book Of Infinite and Universal Facts' and it definitely states that Manchester United won the 1977 FA Cup Final, 2-1. But then that night, I had a dream. No, a vision! In which St Michael appeared before me, and tasked me to warn you that if you continued to question 'The Infallible Book Of Infinite and Universal Facts', then he'd come down and slap you around a bit. So, I've fulfilled my function; consider yourself warned, and repent for your sins, heretic.

[@HandleGF]

United started well that season and were top of the league in early October. Then Buchan got injured and they couldn't function without him. He came back in mid-December and, of the 21 league and cup matches between Christmas and mid-April, United W 16 D 3 L 2. By then they were in the FA Cup semis and they threw three or four of the remaining league matches before winning at Wembley.

[@waynesearle7095]

I was there in 76 and 77. Never had a ticket for either year... Never let that stop me.

Did you smuggle yourself in inside Martin Buchan's shorts? If so, respect. o7

[@hamdanjantan3462]

This the day day i fall in love with Man Utd . I was 11 years old then. Now i'm 57 years old and still a ardent and loyal fan. Ironically, Kevin Keegan is my idol.

[@KryptonitetoallBS]

Even as a United supporter I too admire Keegan. Shanks apart he was one of the very few who played for that shower, who a neutral could actually respect!

[@samson9098]

Imagine being the second to win the treble if United lose this 1977 fa cup. Wow after 22 years United finally ,becoming the first to win the treble ❤❤❤❤

[@TheCanyonhopper]

Not only dodging leg braking tackles, punches and god knows what just to win the ball, mad respect. Now players moan when they have to go back (home?) late from training, cry babies.

[@sunnyjim1355]

I don't think I'd even heard the phrase 'lunging tackle' until the Prem era.

@@kennethdrewary1094 Yes, you're right. Fergie used to moan mainly about referee's decisions and he would cry for extra time when they were losing. Klopp moans specifically about the number of games they have to play.

[@danielmark5514]

Fergie was the one who is stated the presser on the referees in EPL and he was moaning after each game, if some decisions never went to his favor.. Todays corruption in FA and the referees it’s a result of Fergie influence on the officials, since the 90’s, He started that Liverpool agenda, to prevent them to win the league and favoritism to United…

[@siuuuu5234]

One year late but I'll take it

[@JH14FAN]

This was nearly 22 years before I was born, and 33 years before I started following United. Honestly, it it’s so satisfying that we denied Livershit the treble, and must have felt so good at the time. It’s such a fuckin shame that we couldn’t repeat it this year by defeating Man Shitty in the Fa Cup Final. Our treble will still live on as the first treble by an English club, and the only legitimate one. We won our treble organically, without cheating.

[@Azog150]

I wouldn't have guessed you were 22 years old by your usage of "Livershit" and "Man Shitty". I would have thought you'd be closer to 12 years old.

[@WallieTheRed]

Our kid was born 2 days later and was given rhe middle name lousie. He wanted it as her first but they'd done a deal. Mam gets the first name and the old man gets to go down to london for the final. One of things I wish I could have a time machine for and go back and experience Tommy Docs red army the way the old man bleats on about it. I won the birth lottery in 86 mind so as soon as I was old enough to start going games properly we were dynamite. Now its a bit different M.U.F.C

[@fahrezialghifari]

Dave Sexton era

[@SpicyJohn69]

Nope. The end of the Tommy Docherty era. Dave Sexton became manager a few months later from the 77/78 season onwards until 1981 after 'The Doc' was sacked. Despite the obviously great Liverpool team of the time and Cloughie's Forest, I still think the Doc could have won United the league with that exciting team which he was building... But then he met Laurie Brown's (United's Physio) wife and the rest is history!
