    Ian, don't mention that game around Jose Mourinho. And preferably not with a glass of Sangria.

    Steve Warburton: 9/12/1976 First game I really remember.. Luton demolished Chelsea 4-0 on a snow-covered pitch. Chelsea out-played and out-thought. Even 'Butch' Wilkins was non-plussed by the conditions. Chelsea fans rioted in the streets around Kenilworth Road afterwards...

    Ian Guy: Best match ive been to has be the chelsea 05 semi ghost goal kop full nearly an hour before kick off what an amazing atmosphere.

    Two excellent choices. That Robert Pires goal was something else.

    Mark O'Neill: Pires against Aston Villa 2002. Lobbed Schmeichel.

    GoldenRush: As a Bristol City fan, my best ever football memory (and maybe my best memory ever) was Korey Smith scoring the winner in the last few minutes against Manchester United. Me and my uncle was there at Ashton Gate and lost our minds. Atmosphere the whole match was class.

    Not seen too many Leicester-related shouts. Maybe they are still celebrating?

  6. Leicester's title win, the moment of the last decadepublished at 12:41 British Summer Time 2 April 2020

    Wayne Rooney's overhead kick, Steven Gerrard's slip, that Sergio Aguero moment... worthy winners.

    But it was Leicester's coronation as Premier League champions that was picked your moment of the decade just gone when we asked you back in December.

    The greatest story in the history of football? At odds of 5,000-1, it is certainly up there.

    Leicester City's first top-flight title of their 132-year history was celebrated in spectacular style on 7 May 2016.

    And an excellent shout from James. Belter of a match. Who saw that one coming?

    Chris Hickman: I know we're particularly spoilt as Liverpool fans but Lovren's winning goal against Dortmund in the Europa League QF in 2016. Decision entirely based on Ian Dennis' spine-tingling commentary. (play it!)

    James Nalton: Salvador, Brazil, 2014 World Cup. When defending champions Spain took the lead from the penalty spot against the Netherlands, it looked like business as usual... until they conceded five.

    Man City 3-2 QPR (13 May, 2012)

    This even topped Michael Thomas’s title winner at Liverpool for later drama – arguably the greatest game of the Premier League era.

    Manchester City needed victory over relegation-threatened QPR on the final day to edge of rivals Manchester United, who were away at Sunderland, on goal difference.

    Pablo Zabaleta gave City a first-half lead but, in an atmosphere of near hysteria, QPR equalised through Djibril Cisse then, despite losing Joey Barton to a red card, went ahead through Jamie Mackie.

    Manchester United were winning at Sunderland and winning the title as the board went up for five minutes of stoppage time.

    90+2 mins: Edin Dzeko heads David Silva’s corner past Paddy Kenny.

    Three minutes to win the title.

    90+5 mins: Sergio Aguero, in an iconic moment, takes Mario Balotelli’s pass, one touch with his right foot to make space, a second to drill a finish past Kenny and City were champions for the first time in 44 years.

    Manchester United’s players and manager Sir Alex Ferguson, waiting on the pitch at The Stadium Of Light, were plunged into despair as ecstasy enveloped Etihad Stadium.

    As expected, we've already had plenty of mentions of Sergio Aguero's goal. Here's how Phil McNulty remembers it...

    Ah, Zinedine Zidane. He was a god with the football wasn't he? One of my favourite players of all time.

  15. Zidane's wonder goalpublished at 12:26 British Summer Time 2 April 2020

    I am lucky to spend my life watching football.

    Some matches - Aguero's title-winner, Man Utd 9 Ipswich 0, Chelsea defying the odds to win the Champions League, Wigan beating Man City in the FA Cup final knowing my family was celebrating in the Wigan section - are highlights. England 0 Algeria 0 less so.

    But the single moment that sticks out more than any other was Zinedine Zidane's volley for Real Madrid in the 2002 Champions League final at Hampden Park.

    When Roberto Carlos lobbed a pass forward I watched the ball sailing through the air - when Zidane sent his first-time shot fizzing into the goal all I could think was 'wow'. In terms of technique it was perfect. To do it on that stage just underlined how good Zidane was.

    Anthony Knockaert had an excellent game, but it was him who missed the penalty that is what will be remembered. Watford were much better in the second half. They deserve it. From agony to absolute jubilation for the home fans.

  17. Deeney's heroicspublished at 12:23 British Summer Time 2 April 2020

    Plenty of shouts for Troy Deeney's goal against Leicester in 2013.

    Troy Deeney scored Watford's aggregate winner in an extraordinary finish to their Championship play-off semi-final against Leicester.

    Twenty seconds after Anthony Knockaert had a debatable penalty saved at the other end, Deeney thumped in a shot.

    A heartbroken Knockaert was in tears at the final whistle, while joyous Hornets fans invaded the pitch after their side booked their place in the Championship play-off final at Wembley.

    DRAMA.

    Here's the full match report on that game.

    Colin Hosier: Although Aguero’s 90+ minute goal to win the title and Beckhams free kick against Greece were great moments, as a watford supporter the Deeney goal from a LCFC penalty in the 94th minute is still yet to be topped in my opinion for drama.

    John b: Watford 3 Leicester 1 May 2013.

    Mark: Putting aside all the amazing moments of the title winning season, the 5-3 win vs Man Utd was pretty special and had everything! Vardy’s first PL goal & Cambiasso scoring to name a couple of things! Di Maria’s goal wasn’t bad either!

    Liverpool 0-2 Arsenal (26 May, 1989)

    This was the top-flight title decider played out at Anfield on a balmy Friday evening in late May – a fixture delayed because of the Hillsborough disaster at the FA Cup semi-final with Nottingham Forest on 15 April that claimed the lives of 96 Liverpool fans.

    Liverpool's momentous week saw them beat Everton in the FA Cup Final at Wembley on the Saturday then thrash West Ham United 5-1 at Anfield on the Tuesday night.

    It meant Arsenal needed to win by two goals to take their first title since 1970-71 – it may also have sapped vital strength from Liverpool’s legs after an emotionally and physically draining month.

    Anfield was calm until Alan Smith glanced home Nigel Winterburn’s free-kick shortly after half-time.

    In a nerve-shredding atmosphere, Liverpool held on while Arsenal played with remarkable composure.

    Liverpool midfield man Steve McMahon famously signalled “one minute” to his team-mates but that was all Arsenal needed as the great ITV commentator Brian Moore offered the words “it’s up for grabs now” as Michael Thomas decided the destiny of the title with a right-foot flick over Bruce Grobbelaar at the Anfield Road end – virtually the last kick of the season.

    And those of us working on the Liverpool Daily Post saw our 24-page “Liverpool Double Winners” special edition – all written and waiting for the final glorious chapter to be written – go straight in the bin.
