An amazing match at Elland Road on Saturday April 13th 1991. Liverpool had a 4-0
half-time lead over Leeds but the final score was
Leeds 4 Liverpool 5.
Lee Chapman scored a hat-trick for Leeds and had another disallowed for a foul on the keeper...it's never over...

Everton goalkeeper
Neville Southgate was at his eccentric best with a half-time sit in - the story

Divine intervention couldn't stop Arsenal suffering their worst home defeat in over half a century...the story

Some high-scoring matches at the Baseball Ground where Derby beat Southampton 6-2 and Sunderland 6-0 (League Cup) but were beaten 6-4 by Chelsea and 7-1 by Liverpool
