Mar 11, 12:20 AM
After surrendering their title to Everton, Liverpool come storming back, fuelled by John Barnes, Peter Beardsley and John Aldridge. A second league and cup double in three years seems inevitable but at Wembley, Dave Beasant saves a penalty and Wimbledon carry off the FA Cup after just 11 seasons in the Football League.
Elsewhere, Luton stun Arsenal with a late comeback to win the League Cup, Chelsea collapse from title contenders to relegation fodder and on Tyneside, samba-style football comes to the Toon in the shape of Mirandinha.
