I agree that Leeds had ten impressive years between 1965-1975, winning the league twice and finishing as runner-up five times and also reaching the Cup Winners Cup final in 1973 (losing to AC Milan). But in my opinion Nottingham Forest's journey from "rags to riches", winning The European Cup both 1979 and 1980 were more sensational. Today they are more "rags" than Leeds.even... 😌

As a Revie-era Leeds fanatic I concede Clough's achievements at Forest were incredible - he was a football genius. But so too was the much maligned Revie. In 1962 he had a vision of an English Real Madrid and gathered together a group of teenagers together with Charlton, Giles and Collins to create the most EPIC footballing side in post war English history. In their first season back in the top flight they missed the double by a whisker. They were like David overthrowing Goliaths. Twice more they went within a whisker of the double (1970 and 72). Fixture congestion meant they fell short. This in the days when finance did not favour sides over each other and there were many top sides. But how extraordinarily audacious that side were. Ultimately football is not about the trophy count, it is about the courage and ambition of a team working together like a single organism. Football turns us on when we see human endeavour triumphing - how cold today's billionaire clubs are, no champions among them IMO. Watching that Leeds side play was a thrill that is hard to replicate. If you never saw them, you missed out.

Agree with all the above comments, in varying degrees. I remember seeing this game live as a 12-year-old. Watching the replay, I still feel sick for Leeds. I'm not a fan, but they were a majestic team at their peak - every bit as good, and maybe better, than the later Liverpool teams that won serial European cups. Yes, it's about the courage and ambition. Nottingham Forest's achievements were greater, but they didn't play with the swagger of Leeds in their prime.

deckart pt so right but the same could bes said for Bayern in this same time.

Forest maybe and I’m a Leeds fan

He is Austrian 😉

nuwandalton how can you tell and what's the real difference

@@chrisbennett606 You are right. Austrian is a german dialect but its still german.

Fuck off you silly delusional imbocile W⚓️

@Mr Anon Don't be silly.

That wasn’t a tackle he should of been arrested, a brutal stamp he’d tried it just a minute before too, Leeds got what they deserved after that!

after seeing that, I'm glad Leeds lost

​@@TheMrbc74and your saying your team was sporting bayern started parading the trophy at the leeds end leeds were the true champions of Europe and the best in the competition

He was a cheat, I know the Leeds ended 2 of the Bayern sides players in this match, just wished hunter would have finished beckenbauer to... We are LEEDS UNITED F.C 🇬🇧

Who cares, it is only leeds

who do u support?

Prove

your English sucks shit - fact

Karma for Revie

lol

JurgenKlaus 2004 do some research, your dirty team bought refs for years. Disgraceful excuse of a football club

@@chickzidane GO F YOURSELF BITC

@@chickzidane Thats how losers think. This aint boxing, football is played 11v11, doesnt matter how much the refs are paid, greatness always shines through. Bayern were the better team. They won. The end.

@@bigbowss9817 no they, didn't this was some of the worst refereeing ever

Yep good old Terry Yorath , dirty bastard.

Terrible challenge!

And now there is sound. Strange.

Tell it to your guide dog.

32:46 another pen? handball

Gayern sucks

Yorath should have been banned for the rest of his life for his brutal attack in the 4th minute after the ref´s whistle against Andersson and Gray ended Hoeneß´ career! So even if you would have been given the penalty, prior to that you should have gotten 2 reds and we still would have kicked your ass in the second half. What we did anyway so everything OK!!

Charles Johnson they weren’t red card tackles in the 70s. You had to near enough kill somebody or abuse the ref to get a red. Granted, yoraths tackle was bad but it was a different sport. The ref was suspended after the game because your mob bribed him and it was covered up

Since VAR didn't exist back then, refs didn't have any way of looking at an incident twice to confirm a decision. That's why so many wrong decisions and robberies have happened in football. People keep saying the ref was bought any time a decision goes against them but refs are always making mistakes. They're only human after all.

TheSm1thers ref was definitely bought in this game, look it up he never reffed again after this match

@@chickzidane Maybe that was due to his poor performance.

Je ne savais pas qu'il avait assisté au match. Cette semaine là, j'étais en classe de mer à Royan et, pas de télé ni radio. Un penalty pour Leeds est assez flagrant.

On voit Mitterrand aussi à un moment, il me semble.

Et on entend par moments le regrettable Thierry Roland.
