TO UPDATE Division One 1976 1977 Liverpool Aston Villa

30 October 1976
Anfield Road,
Liverpool

  Liverpool made their traditional close season swoop into the transfer market in August 1976, signing the England international, David Johnson from Ipswich for £200,000. The Liverpool-born Johnson had been on Everton's books for three years before joining Ipswich but his transfer to Liverpool confused many as they totted up the number of strikers already at Anfield. But there was sense to the signing. Unknown to the general public, Kevin Keegan had approached the club expressing his interest in playing abroad and Real Madrid had already made a tempting offer for his services. A deal was struck: if Keegan remained for one more year while the club attempted to win the European Cup, his request to leave would be granted. Johnson had, in fact, been purchased to provide extra firing power when Keegan left and Toshack moved on.

The foray into Europe began at Anfield where the Reds took on the Irish champions, Crusaders. It was the first time they had met an Irish League club in a European tournament and Liverpool schemed and sweated to break down their tight, well-organised defence. In the end it took a Phil Neal penalty and a John Toshack goal to make the scoreline look reasonably respectable and over in Belfast Liverpool fared better hammering five goals past the part-timers. The next round saw Liverpool breaking new frontiers again as they journeyed to the Black Sea to meet the Turkish champions, Trabzonspor. Weary after their long journey and with a bumpy pitch and poor quality match ball to add to their problems, the Reds struggled to find their rhythm. They conceded a hotly-disputed penalty but held on to keep the score down to a single goal.
Over the years the club had studied and smartly learned the lessons of European travel. In the mid-sixties they would fly out by schedule plane a few days beforehand, returning the day after the match but now they flew out by charter the day before the game and returned immediately. This itinerary reduced boredom to a minimum, avoided diet problems and kept the players fresh for the continuing League programme. Shankly and Paisley had also instilled into them a discipline of never retaliating when provoked by continental teams. 

Liverpool began their League challenge in sparkling form, losing only two of their first sixteen games and by September had already climbed to the top of the table. There were fine wins against Everton at Anfield by three goals to one and a five-goal hammering of Leicester but then shortly before Christmas, Liverpool were astonishingly thrashed by five goals to one at Aston Villa. It was the first time any team had put more than four goals past the Liverpool defence since Ajax. To that date Liverpool had only conceded more than three League goals on seven occasions since their return to the First Division in 1962. The week after their humiliation at Villa Park, Liverpool lost at West Ham by two goals to nil and the prophets of doom began to write the team's obituary. But they bounced back the following week to end 1976 by beating Stoke City 4-0. The Football League Cup was soon brushed aside when they lost their replay at the Hawthorns after drawing one goal each with West Bromwich at Anfield. But the FA Cup was a far more serious proposition. In their opening game, Liverpool faced Third Division Crystal Palace but could only draw 0 - 0 at Anfield and it began to look as if this competition might be short-lived as well. Down at Selhurst Park, however, in front of a near record crowd of 43,000 Liverpool dismissed the South Londoners by three goals to two and drew Division Two's Carlisle for the fourth round. They proved to be easier opposition going down 3-0 at Anfield. There were further lower division opponents when Oldham came out of the famous bag for the fifth round but they too went out by three goals to one. 

 The quarter-finals brought Middlesbrough to Anfield with Fairclough and Keegan combining to dismiss them 2-0 but if the draw had been lucky until then, it turned against them in the semi-final when all Merseyside had hoped they would avoid Everton. So, the eighty-year long prospect of an all-Merseyside final disappeared yet again and instead the two lined up against each other at Maine Road in a semi-final for the fourth time. Like most of their previous cup encounters it was a gruelling contest. The first game ended two goals apiece with local players McDermott and Jimmy Case saving their blushes and they returned to Manchester four days later to recommence battle. This time Liverpool's superiority shone through as they hit three goals past their rivals and the Reds were through to their sixth FA Cup final. The League Championship was wrapped up at Anfield on 14 May, 1977 a week before the FA Cup final as Liverpool clinched the one point they needed against West Ham in a goalless draw. Just over 55,000 saluted Liverpool's tenth championship with more than 10,000 locked out an hour before kick-off. Their final run-in had been remarkable with not one game lost since 22 January until the title had been secured. They had gone sixteen games without defeat to win the championship by one point from Manchester City. Keegan lead the goalscoring list with twelve League goals, followed by Toshack with ten. In all, thirteen Liverpool players had contributed goals during the season, showing the depth of goalscoring strength throughout the team. With the League trophy safely secured and with two finals impending, Liverpool glimpsed the beckoning vision of an astonishing treble.

 Dimanche 23 juin 1985. Maracanà. Brésil-Paraguay. Éliminatoires du Mundial mexicain. Quatrième minute de jeu. Zico récupère le ballon au centre du terrain. Aussitôt, l'attaque brésilienne se déploie. Eder à gauche. Casagrande au centre. Renato a droite. C'est cette dernière option que Zico choisit. Et là, tout va très vite. Alors que l'ailier lancé dans le trou essaye de s'emparer de la balle, il croise soudain sur son passage un énergumène dératé qui fonce sur lui vers le centre du terrain. Personne ne l'a vu arriver. Sa destination : Zico. Stupeur dudit. Des autres joueurs. Stupeur de l'arbitre. Stupeur du public. Et voilà le supporter qui s'arrête devant l'idole. S'agenouille. Se prosterne. Et lui baise les pieds avec dévotion. Alors, la seconde d'étonne-ment passée, Maracanà jubile, applaudit, ovationne. Puis siffle les cerbères de service raccompagnant vers les escaliers du vestiaire le supporter messager de son adoration. Maracanà est heureux. Zico, le carioca de Flamengo, Zico, le symbole de l'art du football brésilien, Zicozinho, l'enfant chéri, est de retour. Et quel retour. Fanfare et trompettes. Avec un cri du cœur : Brésil je t'aime, je ne te quitterai plus jamais. Brésil je t'aime. Ton football. Ta vie. Tu es mon pays. Zico est de nouveau heureux. Et il l'a fait savoir. Balle au pied. Micro au poing. Lui aussi avait la « saudade », la nostalgie. Deux ans qu'il était parti, laissant derrière lui comme une grande sensation de vide dans le cœur des foules et du peuple...

Goals: 16` Shevchenko, 43` Shevchenko, 45` Tarnat , 50` Kosovsky,72` Effenberg,89` Jancker.

Carsten Jancker scored in the 90th minute to give Bayern Munich a 3-3 draw with Dynamo Kiev on Wednesday in the first leg of the European Champions Cup semifinal.

Bayern rallied from a 3-1 deficit, with Stefan Effenberg drawing the German side within one on a free kick in the 78th minute. He shot from near the left of Dynamo's penalty area, with the ball swerving past the wall into the left side of the goal. 

Dynamo striker Andrii Shevchenko opened the scoring in the 15th minute after Valiantsin Bialkevich's pass from near the center of the field went through the defense. Shevchenko beat goalkeeper Oliver Kahnfired with a shot into the left orner of the goal. Shevchenko helped give Dynamo a 2-0 lead in the 43th minute, sending a free kick from the left corner of the penalty area flying to the lower left corner of the net to midfielder Kakha Kaladze for a header. 

Bayern, which began to attack methodically following Dynamo's first goal had several scoring opportunities an finally managed to break through in the 45th minute. 

Michael Tarnat scored on a free kick from the right side, directng the ball past Dynamo's tiny defensive wall and Ukrainian goalkeeper Olexander Shovkovsky. 

Dynamo took a 3-1 lead in the 50th minute. Vitaly Kossovskyi dribbled past defenders near the left side of Bayern's penalty area, regained possession after a pass attempt ricocheted off Bayern's Samuel Kuffour, and scored from close range. 

Tension escalated after the Germans' second goal, with both teams resorting to rough play. In one episode, Dynamo's Oleksandr Khatskevich encountered an opponent's boot that left a bleeding rip on his face. 

 Dynamo continued to press, and Bayern defender Lothar Matthaus saved his team in the 85th minute, heading the ball off the line. 

But as the Ukrainian team was losing one scoring opportunity after another, Jancker equalized in the 9th minute after getting a pass in Dynamo's penalty area and firing it home. Three defenders surrounded the Bayern striker, but were unable to stop him. 

Dynamo coach Valery Lobanovsky reproached his team after the game for mistakes in defense and the lost scoring opportunities, but said the Ukrainian team was far from giving up hope of making it into the Champions Cup final for the first time in its history. 

"Everything will be decided in the second game," Lobanovsky said.

Kiews Trainer Lobanowski entschied sich für seine Sicherheitsvariante, brachte den defensiver orientierten Chatskewitsch statt Jaschkin für die rechte Mittelfeldseite. Kollege Hitzfeld nahm gegenüber dem 2:2 von Dortmund vier personelle Änderungen vor.

Für Linke, Helmer, Fink und Basler kamen Babbel, Matthäus, Jeremies und Salihamidzic. Diese vier Änderungen veränderten das taktische Grundgefüge nicht.

Die Bayern versuchten zu Beginn, mit langen Ballpassagen das Spiel zu beruhigen. Die beiden Halbstürmer Scholl und Salihamidzic wechselten häufig die Seiten. Dennoch war in der Spitze zuwenig Bewegung, um entscheidend nach vorne kommen zu können.

In diesem Bereich arbeitete Kiew wesentlich effektiver. Schon nach einer Viertelstunde erzielte Schewtschenko nach einem steilen Paß von Belkjewitsch aus dem zentralen Mittelfeld heraus an Babbel vorbei überlegt die Führung. Der Stürmer, der bereits in den Viertelfinalbegegnungen gegen Real Madrid alle drei Treffer erzielt hatte, bewies erneut seine Klasse und erhöhte damit seine Gesamtausbeute im diesjährigen Wettbewerb der Champions League auf sieben.

Doch er war sich auch nicht zu schade, defensiv auszuhelfen. Der Topstar Dynamos komplettierte bei Bedarf, im Wechsel mit Rebrow, das Mittelfeld zu einer Fünferreihe. Umgekehrt stellte es die Ukrainer auch nicht vor taktische Probleme, aus dem 4-4-2 heraus blitzschnell auf 4-3-3 umzuschalten, indem sich Gussin oder Belkjewitsch blitzschnell nach vorne bewegten. Immer wieder verbreitete Kiew mit präzisen Pässen in die Spitze höchste Gefahr.

Dies lag auch daran, daß es im Bayern-Mittelfeld an Kompaktheit zwischen den Außen Strunz und Tarnat sowie dem zentralen Dreierblock Scholl/Effenberg/Jeremies mangelte. Dies führte einerseits dazu, das der Paßgeber nicht entscheidend gestört wurde und in Übernahmesituationen in der Spitze verwundbare Schnittstellen offenlagen.

Schewtschenkos achter Treffer in der Champions League war etwas glücklich. Sein Freistoß aus halbrechter Position wurde in der Mitte von allen verfehlt. Der Gegenschlag von Tarnat aus gut 30 Metern ließ wieder Hoffnung aufflackern. Diese wurde jedoch erst einmal schnell wieder erstickt, als ein Querschläger Kuffours Kossowski genau vor die Füße flog.

Bis zur 60. Minute verpaßten die wesentlich kreativeren, raffinierteren und mannschaftstaktisch flexibleren Ukrainer bei mehreren guten Einschußmöglichkeiten, die Führung zu erhöhen. Danach wandelte sich das Bild. Matthäus gab das Signal, lebte vor, wie man sich gegen eine drohende hohe Niederlage stemmte. So gewannen das Bayen-Spiel an Druck, Kiew wurde weit in die eigene Hälfte zurückgedrängt. Doch es fehlte an Ideen, um wirklich Gefahr zu entwickeln. So traf Effenberg wiederum per direktem Freistoß zum Anschluß. Und, oh Wunder, Jancker traf sogar noch zum 3:3!

TO UPDATE Division One 1972 1973 Chelsea Manchester United Bobby Charlton Last Game

28 April 1973
Stanford Bridge,
London

 It's impossible to name for sure the greatest Manchester United player of all time. How can you compare footballers from different ezas and different positions, and come up with a definitive answer? But a few key individuals are bound to crop up on any shortlist: Edwards, Best, Charlton and Cantona would surely be there. But when it comes to the most influential player in the club's history, then you are picking from a list of one: it can only be Bobby Charlton. A glance at the statistics alone establishes his status: he still holds the club's appearances record (606 League games, including two as a substitute) and remains United's all-time top-scorer with 199 league goals. And for sheer longevity he stands out from the rest. Charlton made his first-team debut in 1956 and won two Championship medals with the great Busby Babes team. He overcame the horror of Munich to become a mainstay of the side in the 19605; throughout the transitional years while Busby re-built the team and on into the title-winning campaigns and the glory of the European Cup in 1968. Even into the 19703 Charlton was an effective midfield operator, until he made an emotional farewell to his time as a United player. But the figures and dates tell less than half the story. Most importantly, he was a beautiful footballer to watch. There have been few more thrilling sights in United's history than that of Charlton running from deep with the ball at his feet, the perfect marriage of grace and power. Defenders trailed in his wake as he swept onwards, before unpacking his hammer of a shot to send the ball soaring into the net.

Charlton had a football intelligence that made him master in a series of different roles. In his early days he was a deadly penalty box operator, playing a striking role which suited him so well that he scored 29 League goals in 38 games in the first full season after Munich. In the early 19605 he was more commonly found on the left wing, where his direct running and ability to deliver an accurate ball made him one of the best wide players in the country. But his best role was probably the deeper, midfield position he made his own while United were climbing back to the summit of English football in the mid-1960s. It was also the place he played his best football for his country, and his surging runs and thoughtful passing made him a prime architect of England's triumph in the 1966 World Cup. It was that tournament that cemented Charlton's reputation as one of the world's greatest players. Out of all England's heroes that year Charlton was singled out for the European Player of the Year award. By the time he played his last competitive game for United, a i-o defeat at Chelsea on 28 April 1973, Charlton had amassed a list of honours rivalled by few players: three Championships, an FA Cup, a European Cup and a World Cup. He played 106 games for England and remains top of his country's all-time goalscoring list with 49. Most importantly, he had earned the respect and admiration of his peers, and the game's most discerning judges. Busby said, 'There has never been a more popular footballer. He was as near perfection as man and player as it is possible to be.'
