- A Battle of Britain in the 1980-81 European Cup second round. Liverpool had a one-goal lead to take into this return leg, courtesy of a Terry McDermott strike. This was Alex Ferguson's first visit to Anfield and not his most memorable - the tie proved to be a baptism of fire for his Aberdeen side in their first European Cup adventure. Liverpool meanwhile would go on to win the trophy for the third time. Gerald Sinstadt commentates.
I was at this game, Aberdeen fan travelled down from Scotland, and we were certainly given alesson in football class that night. Fergie, and Aberdeen, paid heed to that lesson and went on to greater things. It was great to see this Liverpool team play though, a different class.
Liverpool back in the day where a different class.
On pudding basin pitches too, fast moving and free flowing, a different class.
And that's why Man Utd wanted to be like them.
But know matter what they won in those years to me Liverpool where the bench mark, and I'm not a Liverpool supporter either.
I have this argument with many a man u fan
Ronaldo and best; better than any Liverpool players ever.
@@moviedramascenes335 whats that got to do with it?
@@moviedramascenes335 Brazilian Ronaldo was good but not near as good as Rushy, and as for Best he never won half of what most of that team won let alone King Kenny, ya bitter Manc
Ronaldo only dived and cheated dude,a fake.13>1.Amen.
This team would more than hold its own in the premier league today,
goalkeepers that actually caught the ball, fantastic
Kenny was magical…
Wow, Liverpool were awesome back then. So clinical.
Klopp has brought that intensity back to Anfield. They were marauders then and they are marauders now. Defending against them must have been a nightmare when you had a centre half running through like Hansen... You can't defend against a team where everyone except the goalie is pushing on and running in diagonals into the box... must have felt like they were playing against 14 men
@@TheComputec and also one touch passing the ball all could triple
This must have been where Sir Alex's obsession with us begun ;-) _YNWA_
Valid point Fella
Liverpool were an incredible team back then. For my team, Aberdeen, Fergie had just won his first trophy. The next few years would see some great signings, some brilliant young players come through, and culminate in the club's greatest ever team. I only wish that we, and other similar clubs were still able to win championships and European trophies today, but it was a different era back then, and much more of a level playing field
The '70s and '80s had many smaller clubs reaching European finals like Mechelen, Malmö, IFK Gothenburg, Aberdeen, Dundee United, Brugge, St Etienne, Nottingham Forest, Steau Bucharest and Panathinaikos. So many of these sort of teams are so far behind the biggest teams now.
People don't know how good Borussia MGB were in the 70s and what they achieved. So those despising Liverpool win over Borussia MGB show no knowledge about German football at all.
Yep. Monchengladbach won 5 Bundesligas and reached 5 European finals. All in 1 decade.
Absolutely! Gladbach were a superb team. Liverpool always had the edge over them, but had to be at their best to beat BMG. At that time, the Bundesliga and our 1st Division were the strongest leagues in Europe.
That second goal but backheel from Kenny Dalglish to make it so cheeky.
Liverpool were class back in the early 80s, it was also the beginning of a great Aberdeen team which culminated in beating Real in the 83 cwc final.
Aberdeen had a great side back then, Big Hardy (dirty) defenders that knew how to defend, digging midfielders, silky fast wingers and deadly strikers, what wasn't to like? Fergie got the best out of everyone of them n they LOVED playing for Aberdeen. First game I was at Aberdeen handed out a 2-1 defeat, 84 Cup final, they just had that little bit extra and more class and self belief back then. They were a great fast clinical team whenever they turned it on but they won the chance to do that by winning their personal battles, they could lay the boot in and kick lumps out of anyone along the way if need be. Hardy basta*** and a deadly football team that feared nobody back then. This was probably the only lesson ever dished out to them n Fergie held grudges for Years after it towards Liverpool, Souness, Dalglish n Hansen.
His bitterness about Liverpool n Those 3 Scottish players cost Scotland a place in next round of 86 World Cup.
Bitter man.
I'm sure that, after this match, Ferguson said words to the effect of 'we will learn from that'. And he certainly did.
Yeah...what he learnt is "No chance of dealing with these on a level playing field - i'll join a club who are officiated favourably week in week out"!
Liverpool showing total football in the 80’s with full backs, central defenders constantly getting into goal scoring positions or helping out in attack.
Man Kenny's backheel for the 2nd goal was sublime. I think shit like that has been almost coached out of the game alas.
Roberto Firmino has a cracking portfolio of backheels and flicks. You're right about it being coached out of the game though. Shame.
Errr, no. Liverpool still backheel and produce goals. Was it Ferminio last time?
Kenny was a move or 2 ahead back then, great reader of the game and his team mates, KNEW they would get on the end of things like that, great team work
A wonderful build up that led to a cracking goal by the best football club in the world 😀👍🏿.
Poor Fergie...he had to wait so long for Howard Web to become a ref
BTW, I love Liverpool! They are in my opinion the greatest English club ever, but let's not be ridiculous with these comments about Ferguson down below. Just like UTD fans saying ridiculous things about Liverpool.
+bareknuckles2u Well said.
United will always be more successful though
No United will never get another manager like Fergie
United the Biggest in England with their records;
* English Premier League
* Maximum Comuntity Shield Winner
* Tied with Arsenal as the highest FA Cup winner
* Tied Maximum League Cup Winner
* Single English Team with "Triplet"
* Single English team with 2 Three-Time
While the Shitpool celebrates finals, United celebrates Titles !! They shut their mouth today Jajajajajajaja They will always be the Bitches !! Enjoy your 4 Titles in 15 years hahahahahaha until the Arsenal takes more

that Liverpool was a machine but that Aberdeen with a young Gordon Strahan would have an amazing run in the next 4 years in Scotland and European competition and sir Alex was the reason for it.
King Kenny 7 .man of the match ..... Liverpool great team of the 80s .
That scoreline Design makes me so nostalgic
That back heel by Dalglish for the second was absolute filth.
My teenage years I remember them well. Thanks for the memories

That moment, about 1 minute in, where King Kenny is caught in the face, but no fuss, no diving, no rolling over ten times...No Neymar!
Whoever posted this ,you have my eternal gratitude.YNWA
That backheel from Kenny was sumptuous
We are the benchmark again lads.
@Caspean Sea Imminent. Now wipe your tears.

I hope Ferguson noted the game was wrapped up in 90 minutes and not the 8th minute of "injury" time like his United team
+FMTCH so true, also makes me laugh at the comments about how liverpool had more money than aberdeen, true but then also look at fergusons money and resources even taking into account inflation, paisley never had anywhere near fergusons amount to throw around and buy success, paisley earned his success as a true manager, just like sir matt busby did.
Yep, he only won so many leagues as he had no opposition, fortune favoured him like no other. overrated.
@@martygough Klopp has 1 league title in 7 years. The only overrated manager here is him
That 4th goal was brilliant.. Dalglish what a player YNWA
We came - down from Edinburgh for this - we're not Aberdeen-fans but had met girls from Liverpool so thought we could meet up with them AND see the game !. Great night, apart from the score, if only McGhee hadn't snatched at his shot early on - who knows ??. We stood in the Kop, supporting Aberdeen and had not one bit of bother - the Liverpool guys were great !. Later on I discovered fish-suppers with curry-sauce - a habit I've kept up with to this today ! 2 places I remember most were 'Quinns Bar' in the city-centre and 'Snobs' disco, complete with flashy sports-car on the dance-floor - we had a great time and we're STILL friends with the girls !
Cannot believe people still spout the "games are so much faster now" crap. You see games like this and realise the complete nonsense it is. And King Kenny's back heel - genius.
Standard was high .They were fast and played at pace. Souness was the guy.If he didn't get the ball he certainly got the man
Archibald Knox was Aberdeens Coach. Unless Alex was an Assistant.
Which team was better? The 76-77 team, or this 80-81 team? Both were absolutely Dominate.

This Liverpool team outscored it's Opponents 22-5. JUST A DOMINATING PERFORMANCE!
Ferguson joined Aberdeen as manager in June 1978,
Ahhh ok... thnx!
Very tough draw there for Liverpool. Crusaders, Trabzonspor and Grasshoppers. Their legendary players just roll of the tongue!!
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA those teams you had to play! ahhhh back in the day when the European Cup was full of semi pro nobodies. I mean, WOW, how on Earth did you manage to win european titles against opposition of such an elite standard???
Following Man Utd becoming the first English team to win it, only Forest and Villa outwith of Liverpool were able to win that trophy. Tougher contest, and a more fairer one, back then than you might think. Even the likes of Juventus & Barcalona etc struggled to win it prior to the Champions League revamp
As an Aberdeen fan painful to watch. However there's nothing we could have done about it. Just unfortunate to come up against a team at it's absolute height and who were in the mood to give us a lesson.
8 years later nottingham forest suffered a real doing there too. Another sublime masterclass in football.
Worm up for Aberdeen who went on to win 12 trophies in the next few years
What type of 12 trophies they won 😅😅😅😅😅
Scottish cup league cup league super cup cup winners cup and that was with very little money to spend
Nice Aberdeen shirts, I would imagine one would be worth a small fortune nowadays
Phil Neal wasn't nicknamed Zico for nothing.
Best RB we ever had, scored some really important goals
Give Alexander Arnold another 8-10 years and we might be revising that.
Neal has an incredible medal collection too, testament to his quality and durability. Mr Penalty himself !
the 4th goal was football perfection
This was the night Aberdeen's younger fans got into what Liverpool lads were wearing at the time..way ahead of all those cockney clubs still in there dm's and donkey jackets....! The Aberdeen casual look started from that night onwards.... respect from Liverpool....!
I remember this game from the time...a Liverpool masterclass. But it proved a positive experience for an excellent Aberdeen side- quite soon after this, they comfortably overcame a very useful Ipswich side in Europe.
'very useful' Ipswich... I suppose. They were only the UEFA Cup holders and just missed out on the old First Division title.
I had to smile at both natural observer and and wolfgang von persika getting a hammering (and not for the fist time).Cakir you rule dude(5-3-2013),should have seen me on that most memorable of nights,I was grinning from ear to ear,beaming with uncontrolled delight.11>1.Amen.
nah, hes where we all are, on the big boy YT channels that get millions of visits a day, while you languish on the corner of the internet on mickey mouse vids haha
Liverpool got one over fregie pure magic liverool in this mood are unstopple i bet aberdeen was glad to see the back of king kenny
That 4th goal will be lauded as the best counter attack ever if scored today
Scotland versus Scotland...
Neat!
Clemence, neal, Thompson, Kennedy, Lee, to name but 5. So... HARDLY!
I dont think so.
Good one!
Hansen, Dalglish, and Souness were the only Scottish (and the fucking best Scottish players!) in that Liverpool team on the day
Phil Neal ahead of everyone to run onto Dalglish’s back heel. Neal wasn’t nicknamed Zico for nothing. What a cool finish
That team really didn’t have positions. Everyone did the job & attacked as a team & defended as one.
Hansen in area to square it for 4th. Classic
3:51 That's why he's the king.
Clemence not even wearing gloves
Aberdeen under Ferguson were the second best British team after liverpool
Different times. Today it's impossible for "small" clubs to compete with the super-rich. It was way more interesting back then because now 2-3 clubs win everything, the rest are just in survival mode, and everyone knows it even before the season starts.
2nd goal was a great assist nice back heal
In a recent interviewTony Cascarino said Liverpool were the best English team he has ever seen.12>1.Amen.Sorry dudes for misleading you.it's 12>1 and not 11>1 as previously stated.Amen.
This was the game that put liverpool in the wilderness for 15 years, Fergie wanted liverpool knocked of there perch,
In Ferguson's 7 seasons at Pittodrie...Celtic were league champions 4 times.
Aberdeen were a great team but Ferguson never dominated Scottish football the way some revisionists would have it.
Won the league 3 times, won 6 domestic cups, won the same amount of European trophies as rangers and Celtic combined and got Aberdeen to many European cup quarter finals. 7 seasons and managed all that, he’s the goat
Must laugh at all the anti 'sweaties' comments, don't think there were many Scots in this Liverpool team? and don't ever say Gerrard's the greatest ever Red while you can watch Dalglish in this form
gordon wallace dalglish played in a tougher era so he was better
gordon wallace ..Dalglish and Souness didnt break much sweat for bein "sweaties" ..
Mazy74 Gerrard didn't play with world class players fact the team in the ,80 was all world class
Dont no if anyone knows this but Liverpool are the ones thst invented the tika taka football. ...Back in the 70 eerly 80s Liverpool played the one touch football ...
Tiki-taka isn't one touch football. Tiki-taka is slow, possession-based football that aims for like 80% possession each match.
And nobody "invented" one-touch passing.
fuck me Liverpool had more Scots than Aberdeen
Back when it was just for the champions
One Of The Many Reasons Why Whiskey Nose Hated Liverpool, Before He Came To Manage Manchester United. You May Have Pipped Liverpool In How Many League Titles Both Clubs Have Won But Now You Have Gone The Slide Of Man U Begins
well said my friend..i remember this game well as I do at their ground,,fergie done the biz..lets not hide from it but now its our turn...again...ynwa..
It's not like Man United were paperweights before Alex Ferguson took the reins. Prior to his arrival, they had 7 League Titles, 6 FA Cup titles, and 1 European Cup to their credit. Sustained success isn't exactly an easy thing to maintain in professional sports. It's not like Liverpool has exactly been lighting up the football world since King Kenny's departure in 1990. Heck, Kenny couldn't even replicate that success in his brief return.
+jydaflyest exactly, always makes me laugh how the mancs say they were so hard done by when atkinson left??? they had just won the fa cup against a very good everton side who were to be champions the very next season and the mancs had a team full of internationals! so my question is why did it take whisky nose so long to win a trophy?
+daztot oh and how long did it take sir bob to win his first trophy? and under the enourmous pressure of shanklys shadow, add to that sir bob had had no previous managerial experience unlike whisky nose taggart.
+daztot The wheels had come off completely at United when Fergie took over; the team was second bottom after a slew of inadequate buys coupled with ageing, demotivated players. That said, many United fans were hugely unhappy with him for his first four/five years in charge, regarding him as an excuse maker who was hopelessly out of his depth at Old Trafford; we just seemed to be going nowhere, till it suddenly gelled.
As for Bob Paisley, well, the man was a master tactician who knew exactly who to get to for the Anfield system. As Gordon McQueen has said, your recruitment was the best.
a massive night for liverpool, beating the mighty dons the way they did,the game hinged on that awful tackle at pittodrie from mcdermott smashing one of our best players in the first leg,liverpool had battered there way into the next round and to be fair were out smarted by paisleys praise of strachen, the fool took on to many players losing the ball time and again.
tribute act Was McDermott’s foul before or after his beautiful 5th minute chipped goal over Leighton?
Absolute bollox! For a start it wasn't McDermot's tackle on McMaster it was Ray Kennedy, and it wasn't even a foul, nor was it given as one by the ref. The ball was there to be won and Ray Kennedy won it fairly under the rules that applied at the time. He would have got sent off today but it was a different game back then. There was no ill intent in that tackle, he just won the ball and McMaster was unfortunately injured. That kind of thing happened in those days and still does as a matter of fact. But that's one of the reasons why the rules have changed so much and why football is now a game of pufters. And if you think the match which Liverpool won 5-0 on aggregate, and in which they were already 1-0 up, hinged on that one unfortunate incident then you are deluding yourself.
fourth goal was brill!
KP Nuts, top sponsorship! Can't imagine them being able to afford such advertising placement nowadays.
I can. They're owned by the second largest food producer in Europe. :)
Clubs give priority to their sponsors now; that's possibly the difference.
scherben in 1980 man utd bought Garry birtles for 1 m liverpool bought ian rush for 300,000
who was a better buy
I fail to see the relevance of peanuts to United's transfer failures.
Superb footage.
Would loved to have seen the aberdeen team that beat real madrid and bayern Munich in 83 play Liverpool
If this game was played 3 years later it would've been far more competitive.
Dundee were Scottish representatives 3 years later. They got to the semi, while Liverpool went on to win it vs Roma in the final.
if liverpool had this team in 90 instead 80s how many titles would sir alex would of got not many i dont think so.
The 2000-2010 liverpool team was a very powerful team and he defeated them.
Ali Moghaddass But not the same team as the team in the 80’s
Hard to tell. The epl moved on in terms of quality due to foreign players. Teams of the 60s 70s and 80s probably would have struggled in the modern game.
It's like you remember a song.
Real song s in them days
Where's Sir Alex?
hiding with his whiskey
There's me on the Kop!
And they won champions league just recently..
Sir Bob won it in his 3rd season in charge, how many seasons before ferguson and all his money before he won his first?
yep and even then his poxy team didn,t deserve to be there since they didn,t win the championship the previous season.
+daztot If am not mistaken, the European cup was the only encounter between the master and Ferguson. Aberdeen 0 Liverpool 1, Liverpool 4 Aberdeen 0. I was there, the kop sang "Why are we so good" Good was pronounced in a Scottish accent.
+daztot 2005 again. Did you sit still, not celebrating?
+scherben yes, i stopped following the game when it became a business and not a sport, i don,t recognise the 2005 win as they shouldn,t have been there, didn,t win the previous league.
+daztot You don't recognise the 2005 win? Blame the greed of the so called top 16 clubs in Europe who threatened to form their own league, hence this set up. Man Utd weren't champions when they last won it either, and I bet there's been other teams too. It is a business and fans are getting fleeced.
Where's Alex Ferguson?
Giving someone the hairdryer in the dressing room
7:50 WTF!!! DREW jARVIE was still around in 1980
watched.enjoyed. like and thank from me baku city
Ray Clemence was something before Grobbelaar came along.
3.47 Aberdeen attack, and Liverpool have one player back and it goes straight to him
I wonder what comment 'natural observer' is talking about,as I didn't see anything comment by him.Another you tube casualty me thinks.11>1,keep looking up dude.Amen.
why can't present team play like this
They can, and they do, dumb shit.
The build-up play for the forth
Learning from Liverpool
RIP Avi'le
HE SURE DID. STILL LAUGHING.
Heh. Hansen wanted a proper goal after his teammates ribbed him about the first one :)
Also, you can see Alex Fergusson muttering "Ah'm gonna knock them off their f**ing perch some day". On days like this, he must have wondered if his managerial career was ever going to succeed..
That forth goal .....
Dalglish was the best Scottish player ever
For all that has been said about Kenny, we don't know how good he was.
Erm... I do...! I lived through it! None better...!
Kenny was an absolute genius footballer and I was lucky to watch him play from 1978 to 1987.
I remember a game at Anfield against West Brom and the Albion had parked the bus. Frustrated us all afternoon, until late on. Kenny had his back to two defenders and dipped to his right, then to his left. He spun and made a tiny bit of space on the edge of the area. A low shot placed trickled toward the far post and I watched in agony as the ball clipped the post and nestled into the net. I was directly behind the path of the ball on the Kop and we went nuts.
The day fergie started to hate Liverpool
yes...f**kieson is a goner..RIP DDMU!!!
Fergie had the last laugh...
Wolfgang Von Poserkila For now...
Man City had the last laugh
knocked him off his perch
agreed, and his team's (had the last laugh) ....too
6 ! he who laughs last laughs longer Haha
Fergus attended the 7-0 "Anfield Massacre," so no, he did not.
When one compares the soccer of those days to the tedious and predictable dross of today's games it shows how rapidly the game has gone backwards.The pitches are the only thing that has improved,not the quality of player despite all the hype generated by Sky and clueless man u/fa gloryhunters.Anyway I'll leave man u/fa gloryhunters with my eloquent parting tagline:11>1,keep looking up dudes as always.Amen.
Eloquent? You can't even write your fucking native language properly.
you sound disturbed dude,a tad freaked maybe?13>1.Amen.
Liverpool even back in 1980 had a budget that only Aberdeen could have dreamed of. Ferguson certain,y had the final say though, he knocked you 'so well and truly off your perch for decades.
Northern Lights But in the early 2000s we had a much smaller Budget than Man United.
Northern Lights nope, how many ucl's have United got?
George Graham knocked Liverpool off their perch. Ferguson was the one who emerged from the ensuing vaccum -
contested between him, Arsenal, Leeds, Blackburn and Villa - left behind from Liverpool's fall.
Man Utd didn't have to knock Liverpool off their perch. Liverpool just fell off after their 80's team became too old and football evolved beyond them. (With new training methods, eating plans, increased discipline)
Willie Miller having a nightmare.
According to Ferguson what they weren't going to do to us wasn't worth talking about. I was at this match and he got some stick for his comments 😂 no wonder when he went to manure he came out with his knocking us right off our fuckin perch garbage . Ok he won a lot but it took him a long long time but as the saying goes " give a monkey a typewriter and let him bang away for long enough he'll eventually come up with the complete works of Shakespeare.
Paisleys record in a much shorter Time and spending a tiny fraction of the billions taggert spent was far superior.
BTW...RIGHT BACK ON OUR FUCKIN PERCH ........UP THE FUCKIN UNBEARABLE REDS...YNWA
How many Dons made the trip
You can tell Fergie was the manager..they are winding liverpool players up at every opportunity.
The year Aberdeen got into wearing clobber.
Ooooh I remember these times it's when you could win a league title 😊
Over 42 games.....
And only 16 goals conceded after 42 games in 1978.
Won again in 2020 so what are you saying now?
Back when all are English player in a team
William Dryden including Ian Rush too
where Liverpool not the first team to put out an entire 11 without 1 Englishmen in it, a league cup final i think
The team managed by the greatest manager in English football history, and Aberdeen.
No vision of Sir Alex Baconface.
