    Tottenham Hotspur v Manchester City – 1981 FA Cup Final The 1981 F.A. Cup became only the tenth final in history to finish in a draw, and to a replay it went on a damp Wednesday evening in April. But the fireworks were well and truly lit that night, as the nation was treated to a cracker, and a goal of sublime quality by Ricky Villa as Spurs clinched the F.A. Cup for the 6th time in their history. The game flowed from the very first whistle, with both Spurs and City finding the back of the net in the opening exchanges, and that’s how it remained until the second half, when Bennet went down in the penalty-area and Sheffield referee Keith Hackett awarded a spot-kick to City, the first in a final since 1962 and only the fifth ever in a Wembley final. Reeves converted the penalty, but as before Spurs came back, and with twenty minutes remaining Crooks equalised, setting the stage for one of the greatest winning goals ever seen in a Wembley final. Facing a sea of blue shirts as he picked the ball up on the edge of the City area, Villa embarked on an amazing weaving run through the City defence before sliding the ball past an advancing Corrigan and wheeling away in celebration. A truly spectacular goal to decide a classic F.A. Cup final Enjoy this unbelievable final once again in this specially produced programme featuring extended highlights of the first clash and the full uninterrupted 90 minutes of the first Wembley replay and all the post-match reaction.
