Following on from the first game at Goodison I also was at this one. Was in The Kippax End with thousands of United supporters and when Robson's goal fired in OMG...pure chaos pandemonium. Loved it, beating the then mighty Liverpool whilst standing in City supporters favourite end at Maine Road. A perfect night all round. Loved those times, wouldn't swap anything now for the great matches I went to in the 70's and 80's; STANDING on The Stretford End, no mobiles, no silent tourists with their souvenir shop goodies sitting on their arses, hard core singing and chanting one hour plus before the game started, cheap admission prices, yes, just 2 FA Cup wins in the 80's and but 1 one the late 70's but hell, I loved those times.
ye great times
I'm not certain whether it is just being a youth experiencing it for the first time or whether it was because those days were so very different. All I know is they were by far the happiest times of my match going experience despite being treated like cattle by the cops and having pretty piss poor facilities. Every home game was a 440 mile round trip for me aged 12 but walking up the Stretford End was the happiest moments of my match going life and I would travel ANY distance to watch United. The older ones always looked out for the younger ones whether they knew you or not. Something I've always done as an adult. Different times, different values!! GGMU. LUHG.
@@KryptonitetoallBS It'll be a mixture of the novel, and the fact that you could really let off steam at the football then - rather than being treated like children at school, having to sit still and behave.
Absoulatley great times and great passion in those times. Loved all of it. Not quite the same when the seats came in. We will never get those really passionate days again. The 70s and 80s passion we won t never see again. Liverpool fan.
young people from that era en masse is the reason for football being like that. even if you recreated the scene the modern generation couldnt or woukdnt want to be that involved there different now.
Bryan Robson was a monster of a player.
Miles behind Souness.
@@mossga bollocks, even souness himself would disagree with you.
@@thevirus7368 - Don't be silly
@Greenfields 12 - So Robson scored a few more goals whilst Souness was a better passer, tackler, organiser and winner. David Platt must've been better than both of them then, eh. Fucking behave mate.
@Paolo Moss So you conclude your comments with a totally unnecessary and aggressive and patronising comment . Sounds like you inherited the same actions and attitude as the thug and cheat that is Souness . Take a reality and thug check of yourself or are you incapable of that?
In the days when the FA cup still ment so much. the semi finals played at neutral grounds ,always made it special to reach wemblley .
Yesterday / Man I agree, also the build up on BBC1 & the kick off at three pm not five!! I remember as a kid watching Saint & Greavsie & the road to Wembley & how they followed the team coaches to Wembley etc. It means nothing now.
Agreed! I don't get any feeling with the games now.
Bryan Robson...had everything,...tenacious, skill, pace,...scored goals,.fantastic engine and the bravest of the brave,....a true United legend
Forgot heart👌
Hmmm. You’ll be saying there wasn’t any United in your end for the 77 cup final and 83 milk cup final next. Maybe you will also claim that we didn’t have virtually half of the Liverpool end for the 83 charity shield. You don’t read it in your ‘jackanory anny road novels ‘ coz you like to rewrite history.
@@ThomasToGreenhoff bang on the 83 charity shield we had the entire lower tier an a section of the upper
@@ThomasToGreenhoff an half the lower in 83 final
red flag I know mate and most of the bottom tier in 77 final in their end
I was at this game 9 years old-i cried on the way home (liverpool fan)! Great times, great games, much better than today’s sanitised money making circus
You sure mate?
5 nil... Ole's at the wheel.
My 1st ever match....what a night...only 8 yrs old......thank you dad so much for getting us the tickets......my 2nd match.......wembley v everton....love you dad RIP
Exactly the same. 2 of the best days of my life.
How much do we need a modern day Robson now....LEGEND
up to this day, mate!
Recall this replay vividly. I was almost 25 years old & living in North Wales (a 'hot bed' of liverpool support) in the local village pub with equal support for both sides. When that equaliser flew in from 'captain marvel' the place erupted, beer everywhere ! ~ On a more poignant note, the footage is devoid of overpaid foreign 'prima donna's', with zero VAR, no 'taking the knee' & hardly any cheating & 'diving'. I've more or less detached myself from top-flight football these days owing to all of this rubbish ~ What great day's they were though !
Robson was an absolute monster .......the complete midfield powerhouse
So true. He dragged United by the scruff of the neck many times. Against Barcelona in 1984 was him at his peak.
@@questionitall3053 that was an awesome night , United turned round a 2-0 deficit from the first leg, to win 3-0 on the night , and shock a star studded Barcelona that included Maradona.....Robson was a collosus in midfield, unplayable.....
Awesome player.People talk about his injuries but look how many games he played over the years and how old he was when he finished.
Bryan Robson, what a player!
Football now just can't compare. This was real football.
played by real men
With real fans in the stands
Agreed
@@Jack_The_Ladd terraces mate, visceral and pure
Played by people who would take tackles and not go down at the slightest touch
Bryan Robson. ..Absolutely wonderful footballer
my hero
@Hannibal Barca its a good point sometimes he challenge like mad for a nothing ball an get injured.
Flasher Robson who is a lush was never fucking fit wasn't known as Captain Crutches for no apparent reason. Munich Bastard.
@@alanslevin8223 Did you enjoy his goal in this game?
Super Firmino Grow up son
I'm a Liverpool fan and although the result didn't go our way on this occasion it's great to see the legends like Dalglish, Hansen, Neal, Grobelaar, etc.... and I am sure it's the same for Man U fans seeing Robson, Hughes, Bailey, etc......
senorsoupe
That Liverpool side was a machine. 4 European Cups in 7 years back in the day when fans from rival clubs cheered you on, I know I did - Liverpool together with Forest and Villa. Great times.
Back in the day when the post-game warm-down consisted of 20 Regal and 10 pints of Best...excellent game, excellent teams. :)
I remember being disappointed after this replay. It hurt. It still hurts 35 years later.
Still the positive was two and a half days later I decided to catch the train from Abergavenny to Liverpool and see my first actual Liverpool game in the flesh.
To all fellow reds
You win some you lose some. It’s all part of being a fan.
YNWA
liverpool sides were totally committed an professional long before the rest
@@redflag8970 Their organisation and movement were phenomenal. United could never quite reach that level till Fergie sorted us out in 1991.
I see people today talking about Foden/Rashford/Smith Rowe at Arsenal being the best English footballer in decades. Have you people even seen Bryan Robson? He was head and shoulders above the rest in his day and he'd still be there now. He was that good.
Was starvin. Just bought a pie, took my place back in the kippax, robbo scores , no pie. What goal though, never get bored of watching it and sparkys, mint!!!!!! Great atomasphere.......well worth a pie
Haha. Moments like that you just lose where you are
mate!! i missed both our goals cos i was chatting a bird up on the beer stand in the kippax. got a free pint and a pie but that was it. The rats got booted all over before the game but did thornton road when they came out
I was there and this remains as one of my all time favourite matches. The strength and determination of Robson taking that ball from the half way line and burying it so beautifully👌
Great atmosphere and a true classic.
I was at both games and those were great game and atmosphere. Always remember those days. 🇾🇪🇾🇪🇾🇪
Looking back at these games its amazing how the players were so passionate, alive and ready to do anything for the cause......don't see that as much these days. The days when football between great rivals was not hindered by corporate mentality
Bryan Robson, They didnt call him Captain Marvel for just the sake of it. Robson was the type of player that always gave 200% commitment on the pitch
That was some night. The atmosphere was electric. Liverpool were rightly called a machine back then; they were virtually unstoppable once they got into gear. We often had the edge in individual games, especially cup-ties, but we could never match their consistency in the league. Robbo's goal was top-drawer and Sparky's winner was class too, but Whiteside's winner in the final topped the lot.
This is when the FA Cup really meant something...I miss those midweek semi final replays under the lights on neutral club grounds...it meant everything to players and fans alike to reach Wembley,..it’s no exaggeration to say the cup back then was taken as seriously as the champions league is in the modern era..it was the trophy to win..look at the fans at the end on the pitch..that’s what footy is about, just doesn’t have the same emotions now..
same teams reaching the later stages n final all the time these days.
I remember Arsenal and Sheffield Wed playing each other something like 5 times in one tie in the 80s!
Ruined by money that's why especially in English football
@@glenjarnold wasn't that Everton and Sheffield Wednesday?
In 1988, Everton and Sheffield Wednesday met in the FA Cup, where Everton triumphed 5-0 in the 3rd replay game, as well as their 2 league games.
@@glenjarnold I have a feeling that Liverpool and Arsenal played each other 7 times in the 1979-80 season.
1979 Charity Shield
2 League matches
Arsenal won their FA Cup semi final in the 3rd replay
robson the greatest captain for man u... respect..
I will love Bryan Robson til the day I die.
Me too!
And I was lucky to play on one pitch with him three years ago :) And with Denis Irwin :) And with Clayton Blackmore :) Unforgettable!!!
Gerard James yes Brian Robson was a great player.
@@polaris7122 It's fair to say.... so will i !! The embodiment of
Man Utd.
@@todordanailov7634 Great experience and I bet close up, seeing them play must have made them look other worldly?
Oh what memories this video brings. I was there, behind the goalpost where all three goals were scored. I have watched my fair share of football matches but I can tell you. The noise that night was something I've never experienced. Tremendous atmosphere, tremendous game.
Totally agree. Was behind the goal. What a night. What a night
Bryan robson simply the best english footballer ever
I was at both games as a Liverpool fan they were immense matches. I was a distraught 15yr old after this game but you win some and loose some. By the way what a player Robson was. He was utds Gerard at the time.
Those were the days when the FA Cup actually meant something. Unlike today, where's it's seen as a hindrance by the bigger clubs and teams would rather concentrate on finishing fourth in the league.It's a second rated competition. In 85, it meant a lot to Man United and Liverpool.
Agreed, loved them carrying Robbo off on their shoulders you'd get jailed for assault these days if tried it-players just mercenaries these days crazy money
Even the League Cup meant something. Champions League was created to satisfy the Euro Super League meglomaniacs. It then diluted the whole of European Football. European Cup was the champion of CHAMPIONS. You could rightfully state that you were the best in Europe because you beat any league winner in Europe. Now, you could be 4th and win....potentially. Diluted and sterile.
I only read this in the papers 40 years ago. First time I saw it. Wat a game
Best Captain we ever had, CPT Marvel Robbo
Roy Keane might have something to say about that .
some atmosphere at this , id say it was sweet coming out of it, maine rd all back streets free for all
Brian Robson, captain marvel. What a player he was, he dragged United by the scruff of the neck many times. My favourite captain to this day.
Bryan Robson was an absolutely outstanding player and captain during his 13 years as a Man.Utd. player.
My god,if he was playing today, I estimate that his market value would be £70-75 million, with his weekly wage being about £270-300k per week
150 mil now
I was at the first game at Goodison Park.
Please take notes Mr.Pogba.
@@stevenfletcher41 Yeah I was thinking the same thing, about £150-£170 million, with weekly earnings of £350,000
Jeremy Slaney
He’d be worth way more than Pogba. He wasn’t called Captain Marvel for nothing.
The guy put his body on the line every game.
Poogba is a disgrace. Everything wrong with football and footballers these days.
Has never done a thing in his career (shut up about the world cup 2018, he never played that good) and yet he is a multi multi millionaire.
Wrong wrong wrong
BRYAN ROBSON IS THE BEST MANCHESTER UNITED MIDFIELDER TO EVER WEAR THE SHIRT NOBODY IN THE CLUBS HISTORY MATCHES HIS ALL ROUND ABILTY
Love him but Paul Scholes for me!
I totally agree, THE GREATEST !!!!! BAR NONE
we celebrated longer and harder in those days, what a night, straight out of the ground and watched the match again in the Orion in withington
great days, mediocre team, world class captain marvel!
Best United support ever.!!!The passion noise love for the club has never come close even with all the success that followed .!!!!
This was when the FA cup meant a lot, it's the league and Champs league now, I remember these games as a man u fan they were brilliant, Liverpool were a fantastic side in those days, the rivalry was brilliant, as it is today, they both have fantastic history between them,
Totally agree.
Just not the same now, too many foreign players who don't really understand the rivalry between the two Cities..The British and local lads knew alright..and passionately so!
We miss them good old thunder games from the 70's and 80's between Utd and Liverpool.
Back then Liverpool were the benchmark in the league in terms of winning it..
Utd were a great cup team and just didn't have that strength in depth and maybe that little bit of luck you need to win a league title..still a very good side though and marvelously lead by Captain Marvel himself, Bryan Robson..
As good a central midfielder and driving force as there's ever been.
Mark sparky Hughes, a bull of a centre forward and classy too, with a deft touch. Stormin Norman Whiteside, when he was a boy, he was a man..what a young talent he was at just 17yrs of age..great forward..Paul McGrath at centre back, an absolute rolls royce of a player, he had it all. Strength, speed and acceleration. His distribution was just as good too. Aerial ability and also chipped in with the odd goal from set pieces. He could also play in midfield too, he was that good a footballer..sold to Aston Villa and had a great career there too.
Gordon Strachan, the jinking little scot, Frank Stapleton who was also a very good centre forward, aerial ability to match..a good pro
Two full backs Micky Duxbury, mr consistency himself and as steady as they come..Arthur Albiston, again another tenacious and consistent left back, both good distributors too.
Not like todays unfortunately.
Gary Bailey in goal, got a few England caps and was quite a safe pair of hands..did we ever forgive him for the 79 final misshap at the end of the game..i think we did.
Great memories and great atmosphere's too at these neutral venues and then onto the mecca and final of the old Wembley stadium.
It meant everything back then to get to the Cup final and go on and win it.
Such a shame manager's and the so called powers that be don't see it that way.
Gone but not forgotten those great days from yester year in the FA cup
God I miss these days of football. Robson goal was unreal 👏
Robinson? You mean Robson!
@@ClassicManUtdVideos my bad auto correct.
what a night that was. 14 years old on the kippax.
Agreed,Robson was a magnificent player. took two class goals to end the game.
Imagine replacing Fred with Robson and McTomnay with Strachan
I was there that night ( United fan from down south ) what a atmosphere totally unbelievable
Robson: legend. Hope he gets well soon.
Every time I see Gary Bailey in action I feel a tinge of sadness that we were robbed of seeing a true great fulfill his promise!
It's interesting to speculate how long he would have stayed at United if he hadn't been injured. Given how long the best keepers usually last, he could have been there until the mid-90s. Likewise with Whiteside, who might just have been one of the team's senior pros in the treble season had he stayed fit.
I went to his testimonial game at the end of the 1986/87 season. Against an England 11. The day after our last home game of the season
Imagine the uproar these days at the pitch invasion at the end.
They'd have a rainbow flag inspired safe space installed in every ground to help all the snowflakes
Love the pitch invasions lol...happy days mate...football's just not the same anymore.
What a great atmosphere. It just isn't the same these days. I didn't grow up with this. We moved from England when I was a kid and just didn't get to see or be a part of this.So great!
God how I miss this era
Agree 80s was the best time to watch football.
Robbo still my favourite utd player shame he didn't have the quality around him Keane had maybe we could have won a league or two inthe eightys
Another great night to rank alongside the '79 Goodison replay.
These scenes are gone forever though, God I miss those days.
YSBs
Utd fan here, remember watching this as a 15 year old. Proper football before Murdoch's abominable Sky got a hold of everything.
That was some Liverpool team, they won trophy after trophy, even more impressive when you consider that they had Krusty the Clown as their keeper.
Mind you, Bailey wasn't much better.
Horrible season for us Reds, but we came back and won the double the following year and continued our dominance for the rest of the decade. Utd were certainly our bogey team back then though. Cracking goal by Robson in fairness.
Today both shots would have been saved by 9 out of 10 Premiership goalkeepers. Coming from miles out and not in the corner.
Wrong! I am United fan and Grobbelaar was better than either keeper Liverpool has right now!
Seriously? Yeah, beating Grebelaar may not have beenmuch of an achievement but Premiership goalies just stand transfixed to the spot, turning their head to watch the ball go past them into the net. They are truly crap, all of them.
@@peterh1353 One thing Grobbelaar did do well was dive for shots into the corner. Robbo gave him no chance though.
YOU SCOUSE BASTARD!
strachan what a player
The atmosphere....if only it was like that now. Quality video.
what a strike by robson!
Love Robbo there, seems like very calm bloke
Watched it live on Irish TV (RTÉ). One of the great games from the 1980s with Irish players to the fore. Robson was immense. Wish we could have a clone of Robbo at the moment.
I remember being a baggies apprentice and thought i was good,then one day we played a game against the baggies reserves which included Bryan Robson,and that day i learnt what the difference was from being good to being great,and what a great player he really was,he was just head and shoulders above anything i had ever seen,the gap between good and great is miles
I am very jealous I would have loved to have been on the same pitch as him! A guy who used to play pro in Netherlands made a guest appearance for my team a couple of years ago, apparently he once made the Dutch national squad but never got capped and when he played for us he banged in 9 goals without breaking a sweat! Every pass he played was inch perfect and first touch was far better than anything I have ever seen close up! Just made me understand the gulf between pro and amateur that little bit more!
Paul Mc Grath helped make the second goal , legend
Paul was the most underrated defender of his time. Ron recognized the talent and got the best of him.
Watched 2 years ago just Watching it again Brilliant
Remember this vividly - major props for the upload - great game, great goals, great memories!
was in platt lane stand id been to kippax when we played the bitters but this night was fucking evil the mickeys got caned bloody violence too.. we.d had it at goodison 1st game so payback i remember a scouser getting a pie in his face right close up then the pie flinger decked him pure madness...
scary. Bryan Robson. Makes Dalglish look run of the mill.
Good every blade of grass player. Could - and maybe should - have played Libero. Dalglish had a poor game and when he had a poor game they generally lost.
daglish was world class as was robson. pog should watch this to get an idea of what he should be doin.
@@peterh1353 Dalglish was slowing down by this point. Robson was unstoppable that night.
@@redflag8970 Robson was a real man, proper tough fucker. Not like pussies like Pogba..
He may have made Dalglish look run of the mill in this game but both were top, top, top players. Sometimes, it is forgotten by most, just how good Dalglish was....and I was a Man United fan in those days as a kid. Robbo was my favourite though, followed by Hughes.
Bryan Robson LEGEND
Favourite ever united player bryan robson magnificent midfielder seen him live a few times top class 😊
Robbo!!! One member of the famous drinking brigade at the Bowden Arms in Hale, Cheshire (which incl. McGrath, Whiteside and Moses) but whilst a skinful of beer affected their game the following day it never affected Robbo's! He always gave 100% sober or under the influence.
Bryan robson a legend
Awesome atmosphere that night 1 of the best Liverpool had a brilliant team but we did them :-)
Good old days, when you only got to play at Wembley if you reached the final. Bryan Robson my favorite player when I was kid, real united legend.
u n i t e d!!!!!!!!,brilliant
United ONLY had to beat the 2 best teams in the land to win the Cup in '85! Some great players in that team - McGrath, Robson, Hughes, Strachan, Whiteside.
Everton tired and exhausted in final , that's how utd won the cup .... Charity shield proves my point .coyb 👍
@@kx9651 I was there, done them with ten men. So easy, like shelling peas!
Paul we shelled you three times that season plus beat you in the charity shield a few months later,you got lucky with a freak goal and a tired double winning team in extra time,as for the 10 men it rejuvenated your team ,up to that point we were cruising,if a replay would of occurred we would have twatted Utd and you know it .
@@tonynesbit9673 maybe but that is how it goes. you beat a tired utd in 95.
Captain Marvel, Bryan Robson, United's best player of the 80s. Sparky put the icing on the cake. Norman Whiteside scored the only goal in the final.
In the days when the interview ended with: are you going to get pissed tonight?!!
Bryan Robson what an unbelievable player
fantastic game,was lucky enough to get last minute tickets wiv me mates due to going to every game on the old tokens.one of those memories that will stay with you forever along with the arsenal semi 2 years earlier which was an even better day!
Doin' the mickeys.....and at Maine Road too.....one of the greatest atmosphere's I have ever encountered.....I was giddy all the way home and for days after
hang the dj scary mate it was a war zone same at goodison the weekend before
hang the dj .I was at this game as a Liverpool fan.It wasn't to clever going into Maine road ,nevermind coming out....Great games these tho,born at the right time.
Should've seen us on Sunday mate.
@@mossga I was there mate, but I bet you weren't
@@stevenhobin - Hope you had a good day. As a ST holder at Anfield you have about a 1 in 5 chance if getting a ticket for the poxy away allocation so an astute observation. Sure you'll be at our place for the return though, I deffo will.
When semifinals were massive
@cajjer i was in ireland at the time fumin i couldnt go i can only imagine the atmostphere that nite , classic
Was at the game and what a night. Ran the scousers ragged inside the stadium and outside.
No you didn't
Oh, great memories!!
As a Liverpool fan, I always thought that United had a hold over us in the league and fa cup matches during the late 70s until the early 2000s.
I always remember captain marvel (Robson) and Paul mcgrath always upped their game against the pool.✔️
#lfcuid 💪
Epic battles though ✔️
i dont think you beat us in the f.a cup for around 70 yrs till crouch 06
Went..best game ive been to...rockin in the kippax
theres only one bryan robson fuckin pick that out
and the pitch invasions at the whistle.. yeeeesss
one heck of a goal by Robson, no matter how much one hates Man'U
this was a great nte
That night was absolute carnage....enough said
Robbo, absolute giant. Made Keane look like Larry Grayson
Awesome to see a South African and a Zimbabwean goalkeeper playing for 2 of the giants of the English game.
The PL, CL and foreign players who couldnt give a toss killed this competition.
was behind goal that Hughes scored,
great finish,it was a war outside the ground after 👍
Remember that utd fans......whether were winning or losing.........please keep faith....ole is our man now....GET BEHIND THE TEAM....never b negative
Well said son. GGMU. LUHG.
This aged well.
5 nil
The holy grail to win the fa cup as a kid...had to wait another 12 months
and great atmosphere aswell its what made it
Liverpool finished empty-handed this 1985 season and I always felt that the loss of Graeme Souness during the previous summer had left a massive hole in our midfield.
Jan Molby went on to become a great player for the club, but he wasn't a replacement for Souness at all - and when you went into battle with United, you needed a Graeme Souness in your team.
Many people have commented on the fantastic atmosphere at this game, but I can tell you that it was nothing short of toxic. There was also murder outside the ground after the match. Atmospheres were better during this era, but this was one rivalry that had simply gone too far. I was opposite the cameras and saw shirts and scarves set on fire - not to mention coins and golf balls being thrown.
There's nothing wrong with competitive rivalry, but the 1985 season was a real low-point for me.
I agree with you completely. I was at the first game in the Street End and it was the most poisonous atmosphere imaginable. I remember getting hit on the shoulder by a coin. The season ended with Heysel and I couldn't face football again after what I saw there. You're right about Souness as well. If he had been in the team that season then Everton may still have finished champions but it would have been a lot closer.
robbo.the word legend is used far too often,but bryan robson is the best midfielder i've ever seen and legend is exactly what he is.great days and as usual,our fans took over.scouse bastards,love beating them.
You need to get out more if he is the best midfielder you ever saw. The press nicknamed him captain over-rated. Disappeared in to the wallpaper when playing for his country who always did better without him. But then again this country has always had a soft spot for hardworking mediocrity.
The press meaning the Liverpool Echo!!! He was the only England player who showed up for Euro 88 while the likes of Barnes, Waddle, Hoddle and co froze! Played 24 games less for his country than Steven Gerrard yet scored five more goals than him and averaged a goal every 3 n a half games for England (name another midfielder with a better strike record for England)! Brian Clough (who knew his football) said he was the best English midfielder he had ever seen! He was two footed, could pass, tackle, was fast, could finish, head, run all day, read the game, direct and lead his team mates, never slipped or dived and although he loved sticking it to Liverpool he would also go to Merseyside for a pint or ten with some of the Liverpool players in his spare time!
hoddle was so much better
@@cleehomes Bryan Robson also scored a hat trick for England, away to Turkey in an 8-0 win

I'd pay proper money to have that midfield against the dippers this weekend.
05:51 one of the most underrated goals of all time
Man United-Liverpool derby.. arguably the best in England; a rivalry steeped in both location, familiarity and success. This was a Liverpool team that was good enough to beat the best teams in Europe, yet somehow, United got the better of them.
is it heck. newc sunderland, blues villa, cardiff swansea, wolves wba, millwall west ham, sheff weds utd all bigger than this, proper local derbies
Not the first or last time United took over Maine Rd.....
