The FA Cup

Rewind

Semi-Final Classics Part 1

Duration: 1 hour

First broadcast: on BBC Two ScotlandLatest broadcast: on Red Button One

Guy Mowbray looks back at two famous FA Cup semi-finals, and they don't come more dramatic or controversial than this. Liverpool took on Everton at Maine Road in 1977 in a fantastic encounter that proves referees's decisions were just as contentious in the seventies.

Twenty years after that match, but long before goal-line technology was introduced, Chesterfield were trying to become the first side from the third tier to reach an FA Cup final when they took on Middlesbrough in a match they still argue about to this day. Show less
