## Resource

Major upsets, scintillating strikes and penalty saves. There can only be one day on the footballing calendar that houses such as brilliant chaos, the FA Cup final. In this episode we unpack four finals, each containing drama of their own! Mark unpicks Chelsea vs Leeds United from 1970 and Manchester United vs Brighton & Hove Albion from 1983, whilst Marcus looks at Tottenham vs Manchester City from 1981 and Wimbledon vs Liverpool from 1988. The pair also paint a picture of what FA Cup final day was like away from the pitch back in the day and give us some of their favourite personal memories. Every week, Mark Pougatch and Marcus Buckland unpack unbelievable stories from the world of sporting history. ⁠⁠Tik Tok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠ Produced by Spiritland Creative Learn more about your ad choices.
