Just heard a Gary Mabbutt interview on diabetes and how he described this being one of his proudest days....such an inspiration to so many around the globe.
Cried my eyes out when Stewart equalised. Literally. Was soo happy. My days. And at aged of 12 back in May 1991. And no one knows now what that lad went through. Legend. He won the cup final for us.
Happy days. I'd just gotten into football around the early part of '91 and Spurs became my team. This was my first FA Cup. One to remember. Hated seeing Gascoigne injured that day. He was my top footballer at that time.
This is the first FA Cup Final I ever watched. always felt more special back then. I even got he VHS version for Christmas which had one of the players autographs on the front, no idea which player though.
Yeah. I used to think the FA Cup Final should only be won by a worldy of a goal. Own goals shouldn't be allowed. Didn't Tommy Hutchinson also score an own goal against Spurs in 1981? I'm surprised John didn't mention that fact. Spurs were famous for winning the cup every time the year ended in 01. Except for:- 1881. Old Carthusians 1891. Blackburn Rovers 1911. Bradford City 1931. WBA 1941. World War II 1951. Newcastle United 1971. Arsenal 2001. Liverpool 2011. Manchester City 2021. Leicester City
I’m jealous of the people who experienced and watch this beautiful game back in the day! I was told story’s on how there was barely any flopping, very rough, real football that anybody could ride up if you had a good team!
Spurs had a team capable of challenging and winning the league, which Terry Venables was aiming for .. the team was just one or two players short of achieving that dream which never happened under Alan Sugar.
Weird weird day. I couldnt believe we turned up in that disgusting new umbro kit for the final. Adored the Hummel one it was gorgeous. It was mainly over cast and obviously poor Gazza's head was too over loaded for the occasion. That lino wants shooting for disallowing linekers goal. 32 years ago.
Gascoigne should have been red carded which obviously would have been to Tottenham's detriment but ironically the changes required seem to enforce Spurs determination particularly in the second half. As for the match itself, Forest deservedly took the lead with a fantastic freekick which doesn't get the same recognition as Gazzas in the semi despite that it was equally as good. Linekers goal should have stood & the penalty was stonewall but what a save from Crossley . As a Spurs fan I felt for Clough but Tottenham's need to win was greater in respect of the club's financial turmoil.
Roger Milford said in his autobiography that he never sent off Gazza because he know after that tackle he injure himself & wouldn't be able to continue, I think this is when Gazza's troubles started as he wasn't the same player after that crazy tackle
The thing I've always wondered about the Gazza incident when he did his cruciate...what the hell was he doing in that position to make that tackle? He was an attacking midfielder but when he did that ludicrous lunge on Gary Charles he'd somehow popped up in the centre halfs position.
A good question, not sure maybe got dragged out of position. It happens players get out of position a lot, sometimes they have to help out defending when the team loses the ball.
@@supertottenhamtv I think it was an indication about just how much Gazza had lost his head that day to suddenly end up in that position. He really should've been sent-off early on for that horrible challenge on Garry Parker which may have done his career better long term as he would've avoided 18 months out of the game, but not helped Tottenham's chances on the day.
IMO this Wembley is better than the new Wembley. The new Wembley has a design fault with shadowing during games played in the day when it's sunny. The officiating at this game though was terrible. Disallowing a perfectly good goal and not at the very least giving Gazza a yellow card for that foul on Parker, which may have saved his career.
Personally I think the Stuart Pearce free kick was a foul in the wall, Gary Lineker's goal was on side. Gazza should have been sent off. Saved penalty and an own goal. This is what Fa Cup Finals are about.
I agree the push in the box was a foul for the Forest goal, Linekers goal was clearly onside. Gazza should been sent off for that high boot challenge. Great to get the victory at the end, COYS.
Gascogne should of been sent off in the first minute and deserved that injury that fucked up his career if your going to go around putting dirty challenges in like he did then expect to get what u intend to give out 👊
Gascoigne could have been sent off for kicking Gary Parker in the chest in the first few minutes but should definitely have been sent off for the foul on Gary Charles.
Gazza could have been sent off for the high boot on Gary Charles. He definitely got away with it, being a big name in the English football he got away with it
Gascoigne should have been sent off twice. Each of those 'tackles' was worthy of a red on its own. The fact he was stretchered off changed everything as the whole narrative changed from him being a villain to a victim. It just gets worse from there. The Forest free-kick should not have stood because Glover pushed a Spurs player out of the exact spot where Pearce placed it for his goal. The first Spurs goal was onside but I think the second one was offside by the rules of the day, so they got one they shouldn't have had and were denied one they should have had. As a Forest fan, the whole thing left a bit of a sour taste by the end of it. And yes, still salty after all these years.
Lineker's goal was onside, it should have stood. Great save by Crossely from the penalty. Gazza's tackle was poor. Often wonder what would have happened had he not injured himself commiting it? Could have been his final? 🤔
Where was VAR , onside , keepermshould of been sent off .. and Gazza would of been banned for a year .. still can’t believe this is the last time we won the fa Cup… shocking.
I was 12 and watched this live. Probably my favourite cup final tie and I was a neutral. Had everything. Excitement. Drama. And man you can never beat the atmosphere in those days. The old Wembley ❤
Free kick should have been disallowed Offside goal was on all day Pen should have been a red Gazza should have been sent off Corner dat led to the own goal did not touch the keeper
Just heard a Gary Mabbutt interview on diabetes and how he described this being one of his proudest days....such an inspiration to so many around the globe.
You heard that “Tottenham have won the FA Cup for a record, 8th time” in 1991 but all of a sudden nowadays spurs are trophyless lmao
At that time Tottenham had the most FA Cup victories & now Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool & Man Utd have surpassed this total
@@winny8420 courtesy of enic
This is my earliest football memory, I was 8 in 91. Me my dad and brother gathered around the tv. Good old days! COYS.
Can’t imagine a 21 year old keeper playing in the FA Cup final these days, let alone one saving a penalty
Cried my eyes out when Stewart equalised. Literally. Was soo happy. My days. And at aged of 12 back in May 1991. And no one knows now what that lad went through. Legend. He won the cup final for us.
Great memories, winning the fa cup in 1991 was special. Stewart was a very good and important player for us.
Princess Diana was there giving the cup to the Tottenham Boys!
Happy days. I'd just gotten into football around the early part of '91 and Spurs became my team. This was my first FA Cup. One to remember. Hated seeing Gascoigne injured that day. He was my top footballer at that time.
I was only 9 at the time and when Stewart scored I also cried.
The great Terry Venables, he will be missed RIP
He will be missed, great manager. RIP Terry Venables.
I remember most of these players, it dont seem that long ago, hard to believe just over 30 years ago.
This is the first FA Cup Final I ever watched. always felt more special back then. I even got he VHS version for Christmas which had one of the players autographs on the front, no idea which player though.
0-1 Stuart Pearce (16 min)
1-1 Paul Stewart (55 min)
2-1 Des Walker (94 min (OG))
Gazza got away with that foul by not being sent off, but he was never the same player again after he recovered from that injury.
He was still brilliant - you must never of seen him play for lazio or rangers.. or even England after 91, esp 96 euros
@@geeman4041 Yeah, still brilliant but not as brilliant.
I don't think he was ever the same after the World Cup semi in Turin the year before.
Thank you Des Walker.
You should be thanking the referee.
Yeah. I used to think the FA Cup Final should only be won by a worldy of a goal. Own goals shouldn't be allowed.

Spurs played very well on the day, the players played for the shirt and badge. That was the good old times, still waiting for the next good times.
Spurs had a team capable of challenging and winning the league, which Terry Venables was aiming for .. the team was just one or two players short of achieving that dream which never happened under Alan Sugar.

And 33 years later, we've yet to win the trophy again.

There was also another ridiculous tackle by Gascoigne earlier in the game that it is not shown in the highlights. He should have had two yellow cards.
@@partyguinness He could of been sent off easily with the high boot
Legendary days and players. Liverpool fan.

Cloughie is absolutely pished. Love it
Brilliant work in the wall for the Forrest goal
Just came to say I cannot watch this game again. Saw it live and once was enough. The truly amazing Gazza at his idiotic worst.
Psycho Pearce, Brian Clough, Gazza lunging in, Lineker poaching and diving. Love the 90s
Seems unreal that we once were allowed to enjoy winning something!..😫😫
Lineker comfortably onside for equalizer
Jeez, what an awful offside call against Lineker 🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely awful decision, clearly on
I love Gazza for what he done at Rangers but I still remember the way he acted this day. He was off his head.
Gazza, my belief before I get shouted at was a modern George Best,
@@spr2420 No way…
Stupidity at its highest.

Glover cheated and took Mabbut out of the wall by pushing him out of the way.

This just shows how important VAR is
Both sides would have had 10 men, and Spurs first goal would've stood.
What a pisser for des walker, after a great italia 90!
Those were the days when Premier League had mostly British players.
Good British players too.
These were the days before the Premier League had been invented
@@satiricalhaz-homeofbanter4371 Definitely, they were the good old days
@@supertottenhamtv been watching a lot of old fa cup highlights recently and football without VAR is so much more enjoyable to watch
@@satiricalhaz-homeofbanter4371 VAR is killing the game, their not even using it correctly if they did then it would be enjoyable but its not
What was that linesman thinking of. Clearly he waits until Lineker moves forward, then he raises his flag.
Shocking decision, he was way onside
Gascoigne could have been sent off for kicking Gary Parker in the chest in the first few minutes but should definitely have been sent off for the foul on Gary Charles.
Gazza could have been sent off for the high boot on Gary Charles. He definitely got away with it, being a big name in the English football he got away with it
COYS ❤️
I was there, 9 years old, down the front, couldnt see a thing..old wembley had terrible views..glad we one, despite the terrible lino!
Till i die spurs
I watched it in New Zealand was a long day.
Linekers goal was miles ONSIDE
What a goal from Gazza! Wowsers. As for Seaman, a bit harsh. He got the touch, the ball was just a little too strong to hold on.
Wrong game that was the semi final game vs arsenal, it was a brilliant free kick by Gazza. Seaman had no chance saving it.

Lineker was definitely onside FWIW.
Lineker's goal was onside, it should have stood. Great save by Crossely from the penalty.
Gazza's tackle was poor. Often wonder what would have happened had he not injured himself commiting it? Could have been his final? 🤔
Linekers goal was definitely onside, very poor decision by the linesman. It was a silly tackle by Gazza, should have never done it.
Psycho scores, and cloughie is emotionless!
The fairy tale of the fa cup I watched em all the commentary was exemplary
Where was VAR , onside , keepermshould of been sent off .. and Gazza would of been banned for a year .. still can’t believe this is the last time we won the fa Cup… shocking.
Gary Linekers goal was definitely onside, the ref had a poor game. I can’t believe too it’s the last time Spurs won the FA Cup.
Or even played in the final 😂
😍😍😍😍😍 come on u spurs YID ARMY
I am a 90s kid and I was born in 1992. I still wish UCL football at the lane next season
I was 12 and watched this live. Probably my favourite cup final tie and I was a neutral. Had everything. Excitement. Drama.
And man you can never beat the atmosphere in those days. The old Wembley ❤
I was there CoYS
What a game, great memories 👍. COYS
I don’t want to associate blame, but shouldn’t have Gary Charles standing on the post at the corner have headed Des Walker’s blunder away?
Gary Charles probably reacted too late and the pace of the ball went over him by the time he reacted
1:27 never offside
I agree clearly onside, the linesman got it totally wrong. I’m glad it didn’t cost Spurs at the end.
COYS
1:27 Gary wasn't lying then...
He was definitely onside, bad decision by the linesman
VAR WOULD HAVE HAD A FIELD DAY
Most definitely
Free kick should have been disallowed
Offside goal was on all day
Pen should have been a red
Gazza should have been sent off
Corner dat led to the own goal did not touch the keeper
Mike Kinch Paul.Gocgone sent off
spurs last trophie internet still doesn't exist
How an John motson compare Stuart Pearce free kick to Gazzas 😂😂😂
Nowhere near as good as Gazza’s free kick 😀
No offside keeper should be sent off gazza should be off too
No Video Action Replay 1 -0 2-1
He should have been sent off for that challenge on Charles
He could of been seen off for the high boot earlier in the game, he got away with it
I wonder what Clough said to Walker?
Why the hell did you head the ball towards your own goal like that lol
Last time spurs won anything Im still in my dad
Last trophy was 2008
Tottenham silverware??????? WHAT?????
It was my first English football game watched live in China. I was 12 years old at that time.
Great first English game ever to watch, great day for Spurs.
Crazy first game for you
Shame all this doesn't count because its pre-Premiership :/
FA cup still counts, it’s shame we haven’t won it since 91. Getting top 4 in the Premier league has definitely taken priority over winning trophies
I mean getting above arsenal feels like a trophy nowadays, we don't win much anyway gotta take the wins when we get them
Even league titles count. Only the name has been changed. 1st division and PL are equivalent.
Casual
