Hello Football Lovers everywhere,
In March 1984 I was privileged to be at Old Trafford to witness one of the greatest comebacks ever.
The European Cup Winners' Cup was a tournament played between winners of each European country's F.A.Cup winners. Manchester United were, in 1984, in the quarter finals. The opponents were the mighty Barcelona. Their side included Diego Maradona and Bernd Schuster, the German who is currently the manager of Real Madrid.
In the first leg of the tie, United were beaten by 2-0. The odds were stacked against us. What happened has lived with me for ever.

If you click on this link you see brief edited highlights of the game that'll live with me for ever. We won by 3-0.
Enjoy
Eddie
