1986 FA Cup Final Liverpool v Everton Standing on the threshold of a historic League and Cup double, Liverpool arrived at Wembley knowing that victory over their arch rivals in the first all Merseyside FA Cup final would etch their famous name into the record books.
Under the inspirational guidance of player-manager Kenny Dalglish, the Reds had already overcome their neighbours to capture their sixteenth championship crown a week earlier at Stamford Bridge and now only 90 minutes separated them from greatness.
After Ian Rush and Craig Johnson has reversed a half time deficit, the icing on the cake came with only 6 minutes remaining when Ian Rush finished a decisive move that had been crafted by Ronnie Whelan and Jan Molby, and there was no doubt now to which side of Stanley Park the cup was heading.
The red half of Wembley celebrated and the double was complete for only the third time in the century. Now see it all again with the full match in its entirety and post match interviews from the day itself.
