Kemis dinihari nanti ManUtd vs Celtic, disebut Brittish battle, namun bukan yg terbesar yg pernah ada -------------------------- Celtic v Leeds remains the mother of all British battles
Mark Tallentire Wednesday September 13, 2006 The Guardian Of all the notable encounters between English and Scottish sides perhaps the most famous was in 1970, when Don Revie's treble-chasing Leeds United team met the great Celtic side of Jock Stein in the European Cup semi-final. George Connelly got Celtic off to a flyer in the first leg and, although Billy Bremner silenced most of the 133,961 at Hampden Park for the second leg by levelling it, the Hoops reached a second final in four years through John Hughes and Bobby Murdoch. But they lost to Feyenoord. Celtic had previously met Liverpool in the 1966 Cup Winners' Cup semi-final when a Bobby Lennox goal at Parkhead gave them the edge but a Tommy Smith free-kick and a Geoff Strong header in six second-half minutes at Anfield sent the Reds through to a Hampden Park final they would lose to Borussia Dortmund. In late 1980 Liverpool beat Aberdeen in the European Cup second round in what was the sole match-up of Bob Paisley and Alex Ferguson as managers. Terry McDermott scored the only goal at a freezing Pittodrie and Liverpool chalked up a 4-0 win at Anfield, where Willie Miller put into his own goal before Kenny Dalglish and Alan Hansen got on to the scoresheet. Liverpool went on to win the trophy for a third time in May 1981. Rangers beat Leeds 2-1 home and away in the 1993 European Cup. Gary McAllister knocked in a free-kick to give Leeds the lead at Ibrox but an own-goal from John Lukic levelled it and Ally McCoist hit the winner. Rangers raced into a two-goal lead at Elland Road, Mark Hateley and McCoist scoring early on, and only Eric Cantona managed a reply. The Gers finished one win short of making the final, Marseille's always tainted 1-0 victory over Milan. Liverpool again met Celtic in the first round of the 1997-98 Uefa Cup and won on away goals, all of them coming in a 2-2 first leg at Parkhead. The Hoops were to get revenge in the 2002-03 competition; they saw off Blackburn home and away in the second round before defeating Liverpool 3-1 in the quarter-final, following up a 1-1 draw with a 2-0 win at Anfield thanks to Alan Thompson and John Hartson. The Hoops reached the final, losing only to Porto and their gamesmanship. In the 2004 European Cup Manchester United won a group game 1-0 at Rangers and the return 3-0, which featured a Diego Forlán rarity, as they finished top of the group and the Ibrox club bottom. http://football.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,1870995,00.html ------------------------------------------------------ SIXTEEN YEARS BABY !! --------------------------------- How low will we go?
