C1 1984 1985 Bordeaux Juventus 1/2 finale retour
Semi Final Second Leg
Parc Lescure, Bordeaux
24 Avril 1985
Au lendemain du match aller à Turin, où les Girondins avaient encaissé un 3-0 net et sans bavure, le quotidien sportif l'équipe titrait : « La Juve, c'est autre chose ! » Certes, les Turinois étaient autrement forts que Dniepropetrovsk, le Dinamo Bucarest ou l'Athletic Bilbao, les victimes des Bordelais lors des tours précédents. Mais les Girondins, joueurs comme dirigeants, sont gens susceptibles ; pour eux, ce titre voulait dire : la Juve, c'est autre chose que... Bordeaux !

Final

Wembley Stadium,
London
Referee Ken Burns
Attendance 100,000
Sundeland became the first Division Two side lo win the FA Cup for 42 years when they beat Leeds 1-0 at Wembley, and at the end manager Bob Slokoe ran on to the field straight into the arms of keeper Jim Montgomery. For "Monty" had made a double save midway through the second half that denied Leeds when an equalizer seemed inevitable, with one of the most remarkable pieces of goalkeeping ever seen. Before the match, Sunderland were given no chance. Leeds were the Cup-holders, had finished third in fhe League and were in the final of the European Cup-Winners' Cup. They were a mean side and had seen it all before. Sunderland, though, had a tremendous Wearside following and, as their Cup run progressed, they became infected by the fanaticism of a wonderful crowd. And the manner in which they had beaten Arsenal in the semi-final should have been a warning. At Wembley, they matched Leeds in spirit and showed no little skill. But it was still a shock when they look the lead through Ian Porterfield in the 52nd minute from their first corner. Leeds proceeded to grind away at Sunderland, yet the individual flair that might have made the breakthrough appears to have been sacrificed in this side for the sake of "professionalism".
