In the late 80s/early 90s, I especially loved the FA Cup third round because the BBC’s big four commentators were guaranteed a game each on Match Of The Day.
Barry Davies, John Motson, Tony Gubba and Gerald Sinstadt, all on the same programme.
What a time to be alive. 🎙️
On this day in 1989, David Platt rounded off the decade with a splendid goal against champions Arsenal at Villa Park.
Platt was at the top of his game here, and the 90s would get even better for him.
A quite incredible player.
