Stoke City vs Chelsea 1972 League Cup Final
18,99 €
After 109 years of trying, success had finally arrived. The 1970's had seen an upturn in fortune for the Potters: Having reached The FA Cup Semi Final in 1971, 1972 witnessed the Club's first ever Cup Final appearance, and what an afternoon it proved to be.
Defeating Manchester United and West Ham along the way, it was Chelsea in the Final and a capacity Wembley crowed awaited. The Londoners were the pundits favourites, but Tony Waddington's Stoke had other ideas, and the thousands that had made the journey down the M6 were certainly intent on making it an occasion to savour, as the sound of "We'll Be With You" echoed around the famous stadium.
The scene was set, one half of Wembley was painted red and white, and what a thrilling contest it turned out to be. With only five minutes played, a goalmouth scramble caused panic in the Chelsea back-line and Conroy pounced to head past Bonetti. It was the perfect start, which sparked wild celebrations. But as half time approached, Osgood seized on a loose ball to steer home the equaliser, and Chelsea were back in it.
The scoreline remained level for much of the second half, until the Cup fairytale came true for George Eastham. With just under twenty minutes remaining, Eastham capitalised on Bonetti's party to lift the ball past the stranded keeper, and cap a tremendous season for the old campaigner.
How the travelling fans celebrated this historic victory for the Club. Now relive this unforgettable day all over again, as we bring you the extended highlights from the match itself, including post match celebrations and interviews from the Stoke dressing room, and a special bonus interview filmed the day after the Final with the goal scoring hero George Eastham.
This is one piece of Stoke City that no fan should ever be without.
