So comebacks?
I could tell you again about England losing to West Germany in the quarter-final of the 1970 World Cup....starring Alf Ramsey, Bobby Charlton and Gerd (The Bomber) Muller. But I don't want to have that sinking feeling like I did yesterday afternoon when Jack Leach wandered out to bat with Stokes!
What about the 1954 World Cup; The Miracle of Bern when Hungary and Puskas over ran West Germany (yes again) to go 2-0 up, only to throw the game away in the final 6 minutes losing 3-2 after a Welsh linesman denied Puskas another goal for offside with 4 minutes left-disputed.
There's Bayern Munich and Man Utd in the Champions League bonanza 1999 or Liverpool and Barcelona in Istanbul 2005, The Reds losing 0-3 to win 4-3 or best of all (to some)..........
21st December 1957, Charlton Athletic 1-5 down to Huddersfield Town with 27 mins left and down to 10 men, winning 7-6. Johnny Summers scored 5.
In 2012 in the League Cup, Reading threw away a 4-1 lead at half time to concede to 4-2 with 5 minutes left, 4-4 after 89 mins and into extra time, then 5-4 up, THEN 5-5 with 4 mins to go lose 5-7 to Arsenal.
But surely, nothing can beat this Motherwell v Hibernian classic on May 5th 2010. You must watch this....last goal?!!
