This post is obviously inspired by today’s game (wtf was that??), but what are the games that truly amazed you, even if your favorite time team didn’t play? Let me start with several examples, some of which are not from the EPL:
- Man Utd 4:3 Man City (2009) - an insane encounter and it always felt United couldn’t win, but they did, and that Owen goal was awesome!
- Netherlands 2:3 Czech Republic (EURO 2004) - if you didn’t watch this one, you should! Robben still had hair and it was one of the most magnificent games of football I’ve ever seen!
- Alaves 4:5 Liverpool (UEFA Cup Final 2001) - I’ve never thought I would be that heartbroken for a team I’ve never watched before!
- Milan 3:3 Liverpool (the Miracle of Istanbul) - obviously.
- Crystal Palace 3:3 Liverpool (2014) - Liverpool went 3 up and decided they should try to erase a -8 goal difference to catch Man City. They paid the price, but damn, the game was worth watching!
- Blackpool 4:3 Bolton Wanderers (2011) - omfg, Ian Holloway’s Blackpool were entertaining as fuck, how I wish they stayed for at least another season … this game is probably my favorite from a season that featured a bunch of great matches.

    Preparing to be crucified as a Man United fan

    But Liverpool vs City 4-3 back in 2018.

    I watched the match with my brother and his friends who are all Liverpool fans (we are in Australia so it was a late night for us).

    The attacking prowess of Salah, Firmino and Mane in their prime was box office, and to see City come storming back into the game almost on demand was a truly entertaining experience.
