This Liverpool team 87/88 were quite phenomenal in my opinion. I will always maintain that they would have won the European cup the following season if it were not for the ban. The 85/86 team were also light years ahead of anyone else in the the top flight back then.

I was there for this one, Man Utd always had the Indian sign on us , always ragged it, but great days, proper mans game, ace atmosphere, standing on the kop, great punch ups, rough pitches. Happy days

What a great clip with loads of respectful, nostalgic comments x only true football fans here

I REMEMBER THIS MATCH, IT WAS SHOWN ON BBC, I LOVED IT WHEN ITV AND THE BBC SHARED THE COVERAGE, GREAT MEMORIES

The good old days When we all LOVED FOOTBALL ⚽️❤️

mcmahon goal is pure class

I had two sporting heroes at that time... Daley Thompson and... Bryan Robson. He was driven, each and every game.

Definitely getting my 80's art pamphlets out after watching this.....!!

Highlight of this game was watching Strachan celebrate in front of the cop!

I was in the away end chucking pies at the home fans what a cool goal by Strachan

I was there as a 14 year old lad in the main stand!

I was there and it was a game I'll never forget. All around me were screaming as Robson got done twice in the first half. Was that the slightest of reflections for Mcmahons goal as opposed to the mad one for Robsons goal?

Was at this terrific game and in the previous seven seasons Utd had remained unbeaten at Anfield in the league so when Liverpool went 3-1 up in the second half and playing against ten men I felt this had to be the day that run came to an end but Utd were Liverpools bogey side since the cup final of 77 and came back it was the beginning of that Fergie never give up attitude just look at the first Utd goal when the ball was crossed into the box there was three United attackers and no Liverpool defenders

Loved watching football in the eighties and early nineties, Liverpool were my team!!

Speaking as a long suffering Spurs fan(with 2 older Brothers who back United) this was Football! .Liverpool were the dominant force&Man U were a massive Org trying to rediscover their Glory days! .But the quality of football,passion,commitment,atmosphere made for a fantastic spectacle for the fans. it was alike "Saturday Religion"as opposed to today's sterile pretentious "Reality TV" football!. So full respect👍🎄☘️ to all of those old "Manc".and "Scouser" fans out there!👍

Mcmahon was a top midfielder, but Beardsley was sexy to watch

Amazing Liverpool team but in the 80s it read P 20 W2 L8 D10 . United always turned up.

That was a superb Liverpool side and very few teams on the planet could've done what United did that afternoon, coming from 3-1 down to get a draw with 10 men.

When football was best nobody rolling about after been tackled unlike in today game 🙄

The best was Strachan celebrating in front of the most knowledgeable- fair minded supporters in the country. Great performance from Utd second half. What a talent Olsen was - just too inconsistent. Fergie still had another five years from this to get it right. Can you imagine Ten Hag getting nearly seven years to win the title?

Davenport nutmegging Hansen! Class lol

Thanks for uploading. How good were Barnes' crosses from corners and set pieces? So accurate.

Classic game YNWA

Wasn't there some argy-bargy between Dalglish and Ferguson after the game? I seem to remember reading in the paper the two exchanged some harsh words.

Love how McMahon's screamer was almost identical to the one he scored against Everton a year earlier.

As a oxford utd fan was gutted to see Aldridge and Houghton leave! But we had no choice we will always be a feeder club

Ahhhhhhh - remember when most players played for the badge and not the almighty £££££££££

The crowd reaction at that Gillespie goal was amazing

We couldn't do much with United during this era and they always raised their game for matches against us. So much so that they'd risk Bryan Robson and on a few occasions, he'd get injured. The only saving grace was that we won a few pots at this time. Should've done the double this year but got bullied by Wimbledon in the cup final.

That was a fabulous Liverpool side and I'm a United fan for my sins. Barnes and Beardsley were a joy to watch. The 5-0 hammering of Notts Forest was brilliant stuff - fast, direct, skillful , incisive and effective. Forget this tippy tappy yawn ball that Man City play.

Beardsley crosses the ball 8:50 and Steve nicol was given offside oooohhhhh Myyyyy God. Nicol is miles Miles miles ONSIDE. Omg

Amazing goals by the reds.

Big Norman banged McMahon and Liverpool fell apart. Legend.

Kop was boss then.

Scotish player like gordan strachan..& brian mclair ..give extra cutting edge ..team like my man utd is always put a lot of fight in anfield not eazy place to get resulat ..man utd never give up ..glory glory.days coming again..🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽🔥⚽

Putting blame to one side, the 88-90 sides i believe would have won the European cup at least once of those 3 seasons. Now if hillsborough didnt happen, the 89 League never goes to down to the crazy 5 games in 11 days or whatever it was. Arsenals Anfield 89 was magnificent for them yes but it was a crazy decision to hold the biggest game of the season on a Friday evening following the Tuesday night match Between Liverpool and West Ham. Before that it was a crammed few games in a week also. They could of easily held it the following day.

Nichol looked onside

League Title winners: 1985: Everton 1986: Liverpool 1987: Everton 1988: Liverpool 1989: Arsenal 1990: Liverpool

Would have been some atmosphere at this

John Barnes had a quiet game hardly touched the ball.....

What did you expect after Heysel?

Look at the defending from Hansen on the first goal. Ha

safety in numbers going there in the 80,s united til i die

who likes short shorts?

Colin Gibson, ffs

Neil Webb and davenport gr8 talents at forest but didn't quite gell at United. Makes you think that clough he could always find talent and then a giant would come along and buy them while clough ie made a profit. Nigel clough Steve hodge des walker Roy keane davenport Webb

Was at this game and apart from a fat bloke getting his very young son to shout Munich I never saw much aggro and went in with only 1 other.

Chris turner was far too small to be a keeper.

Souness made terrible decisions and helped Ferguson knock Liverpool off their perch.

Who would of known sir Alex was goin knock the bottom feeders right of there fukin perch for next twenty years and a prober treble frown in aswell

Wow that was a great watch. Kits were a were awesome. Robson was a beast. Aldridge was never scoring was he?

Prime 80s Liverpool fail to beat Manchester United 😂 Sir Alex was already moulding United to become the most successful team in English football 😁

Great LFC performance against the scums

We hate utd too much for any compassion
