Everton DVD 1985 Cup Winners Cup Semi Final Bayern Munich
Managers and players will tell you that winning a Semi-final of any competition can be more exciting than the Final itself, and that was possibly the case when Everton met Bayern Munich in the European Cup Winners' Cup at Goodison Park back in April 1985.
Trailing 1-0 at half time (after a 0-0 1st leg in Munich), Everton faced their biggest test of a memorable season against Germany's best, but with some inspirational words from Manager Howard Kendall and a display of dazzling football, they gave all Evertonians a night to remember.
The crow inside Goodison Park that night was vociferous in the extreme, prompting Kendall to tell his players in the dressing room at half-time - "Just get the ball forward and the Gwladys Street will suck the goals in!"
Relive that tremendous atmosphere, as Everton's quest to reach the Final in Rotterdam rested on 45 minutes of football and see how they triumph on a night of drama and passion!
