03/04/1974 Liverpool v Leicester City

This is when the FA cup meant everything

Great Liverpool, Keegan and Toshack absolutely outstanding!!😉

I listened to this game on my dad's car radio as we drove home. I still remember the commentator describing Keegan's goal. I share his name, but never his talent.

Coleman could make a 0-0 draw at Rochdale feel like Italy 4 Germany 3...World cup semi-final 1970

Amazing atmosphere..the last full house at Villa Park ..nearly 57,000

¨Worthington seeking to have a quick bang´ The great David Coleman always thoroughly researched the players......

Ne oyun şimdiki gibi saçma sapan vakit çalmalar yok.Kaleciler hariç her oyuncu taç kullanıyor şimdiyse bekle illa sağ bek yâda sol bek gelecek taç atacak.Teknik direktörler oyunda yok ama harika oyun var.Simone gibi,Klop gibi,Mourinho vd gibi gol için koşuşturan TD yok.Ama Futbol hep var üstelik sınırlı sayıda futbolcuyla.

Keegan said afterwards 'I was going to bring the ball down but Shilton's white shirt made me aware of his position and so I went for goal and in it went '

Star of the show: Villa Park.

What a game what goals and the fans ❤️❤️

Football seemed to be a lot more exciting back then with players getting stuck in with tackling and not falling down to the ground after the slightest knock .

Keith Weller was my cousin . Great player

Toshack what a clown actually miss kicks it for second goal

Was at this game brilliant gutted thought it was Frank's year

Is the game played at a greater pace than this today? I don't think so.

Era muy bueno Keegan

Remember watching this on Sportsnight when I was 7. I started supporting Liverpool earlier in the season after being mesmerised by the Toshack/Keegan pairing. They certainly didn't disappoint in this game, either! Don't remember much about the game apart from Keegan's amazing goal, but Leicester certainly played some good football and had their chances. Whenever the peerless David Coleman was commentating, you knew it was a big game! Ah, the days when the FA Cup meant everything to whoever you supported.

I first saw this on a VHS tape of "Liverpool's Greatest FA Cup Victories" back in the mid-90s. Somehow, whenever I hear Coleman's commentary on Keegan's volleyed goal, it always sounds to me like he's reading out loud.

looks like leicester gave liverpool more of a game here than newcastle did in the final itself

The Brian Hall goal was actually a Shilton own goal, off his head.

Keegan in overdrive, some player.

Floodlights on a dimmer

Villa Park is such a brilliant stadium.

I was at this game and I remember after , that Keegan said when he scored, he could see Shilton, in his all white kit standing out, and he knew to lob him.

Being a Leicester City fan as a kid, and as i still am, this game broke my heart. Had it broken a few times since though ! Listened to it under the bed covers on my pocket radio .... Really thought Leicester City were going to win the FA Cup that year, but it wasn't to be ..... Jimmy Bloomfield's team included Peter Shilton, Steve Whitworth, Keith Weller and Frank Worthington .... All England internationals. They played brilliant football at the time, so entertaining and with so much flair. Everyone loved watching them, no matter who you supported ......

I'm a lifelong suffering Spurs fan.But a football fan..And this was(is)Football the way it's supposed to be played..both teams were full of quality or at worst good players(back in those days u had to be good,starting off at schoolboy level,district and so on..every boy wanted to be a footballer,not a reality TV *,Rapper,Gangster or Drug dealer)I mean Liverpool had KK and *Toshbut let's not forget how good a "Wingman" was Steve Highway..U just didn't get many better at taking a Def on and crossing the ball(and he was tough) And Leicester had Weller,Earle,Worthington,ShIlton and some other stalwarts..Great stuff,not like the phony,staged,expensive BS we are presented with now!

Great atmosphere.

no diving, no playacting, good old fashioned English football.

All the magic of the cup 🏆

Hope we do this on 26 Dec 2019 and end their challenge.

Keegan was my hero despite playing defence in elementary school back then. How a out that?

Kevin Keegan is the reason I supported Liverpool,people forget what a brilliant player he was.

My dad and his mate took me to villa park for this game was gutted to lose but was only 7yrs old

At times in this game Keegan was unplayable.

David Colemans commentry made this game.

Remember listening to this on Radio 2 with the great Peter Jones commentating.
The cup was so massive back then.
Proud to have been a fan of LFC for over 45 years.
Happy days

Kevin Keegan ❤️❤️❤️ What a player. YNWA

A brilliant volley by Kevin Keegan

Remember listening to this game on the radio then watching it on Sportsnight. David Coleman was the commentator. Great memories. I was 16 then

As a 9 year old I was sent to bed as the highlights were on the TV to late for me.
