Manchester City - Manchester United 3 - 3 (1971 - 72)

[@1061andy]

You can feel the atmosphere even now 49 years on....fantastic stuff.

[@martinhowarth81]

I don’t watch football anymore... if they still played it like this , I would

[@markmeade2937]

Not a chance, there hairstyles would go out of place . Overrated, overpaid and full of self importance

[@stephen500]

If this game was today, the ref would have blown for about 50 fouls and ruined the game. A man's game back then and both teams were excellent

[@robertroberts2666]

What a great player was Colin Bell of City! Franny Lee wore his heart on his sleeve.

[@robertroberts2666]

Colin Bell should surely be up there with all the English Greats along with Leed's Allan "Sniffer" Clarke and Derby's goal-scoring phenomenon, Kevin Hector.

[@michaelking9772]

Great to see, United still great to watch city possible the best team in England then.!!!!

[@Mancunianblue]

And now, come on City!

[@alabama1413]

Fantastic match. Well done both

[@2011pmacz]

Fascinating to see this. Standing up behind the goal that became the North Stand seats; (obv) no segregation them days; BUT clearly trouble expected on the terraces - police sat all around the ground; the end of the era when men used to attend in shirt and tie - you can see one or two still but if you see similar games by the mid-70's this had more or less gone.City in trad shirts, United sporting a new type. Fantastic atmosphere, brilliant game. An all time Manchester classic - if you're over 55!

[@tomduggan51]

Aek fans, Thanks for this excellent 90mph Manchester derby-both teams going full tilt with Lee and McIlroy particularly impressive for their respective sides!

[@kevinhall2829]

What has happened to football this the game we fell in love with not the afraid to loose dross we get now.

[@markhallam7821]

Thank you for sharing. Brilliant game!

[@lajole9501]

That's how football should be played, both teams served up a great game, not like the dross the overpaid so called modern players put on show.

[@carpediem4290]

Right, well said!!!

[@duncanbirss8923]

Spot on, actually dribbling the ball not pointless passing back or sideways and proper tackling

[@ac9110]

Francis Lee getting furious at Best for diving, he'd be furious the whole match these days! Ahhh, the days when the ref didn't blow for a foul every 10 seconds and no one pretended they'd broken their leg every time they got tackled. What a shame it's got like it has.

[@carpediem4290]

What a vibrant and amazing play...that's entertainment...folks!!! That's authentic football...

[@getridofglazer1]

Brilliant game, it had everything... no crowd segregation back in the day.

[@Mancunianblue]

Colin the KING.

[@peezebeuponyou3774]

Was there that day- great game.

[@stevesmith7997]

I went to Belle Vue after the game a ritual at the time! Happy Days! great game!

[@MrAlwaysBlue]

Remember this when I was in the infants at primary school

[@robertroberts2666]

I think I was around 9 at the time.

[@emilioquintana8111]

Gran espectáculo. Antes el fútbol era deporte

[@wildbill6826]

Not quite sure if I heard this right from commentator Gerald Sinstadt "that Francis Lee was to give £50" or "lose 50lbs"!

[@really-america]

I was 3, but remember many of these names on my panini stickers when I was older. This was also when the city crowd was noisy - come on the blues!

[@robertroberts2666]

Franny " the firebrand" Lee!

[@SOKTAUBOLATV]

lol it's 1970s but the movements of the camera are better than my country's football league broadcaster in 2020

[@robharding4028]

The 70's game was much better in many ways than the current set up, we have always had divers and cheats, But today, they are all over the pitch.

[@anthonyquinn6009]

What a game! Lee complains about Best diving then dives himself for a penalty.

[@robharding4028]

If I didn't have my mute button, I wouldn't be on this medium, Thank god for small mercies.

[@beatlebrian4404]

Why was there no kids at main road? Because their mums used to say, keep away from that main road!

[@youveryniceman]

billy bunter cheating a penalty as was his usual game!
