Most Exciting PL Games: 53

6th Jun 2012 - Latest News

A last-gasp equaliser from Paul Ince against his former club Manchester United is up next in our countdown.

LFC's Most Exciting PL Games No.53: May 5, 1999. Liverpool 2-2 Manchester United.

A match report from The Telegraph called it a 'raw, bruising night of unrelenting tension at Anfield'.

It was an evening that threatened to end in despair for the home side but after watching the Reds battle back from two goals down, Anfield breathed a collective sigh of relief before joining the celebrations of the Liverpool players and in particular Paul Ince, who scored the equaliser having been heckled by United fans throughout the game.

Dwight Yorke put United ahead on 23 minutes. Denis Irwin doubled their lead with a 56 minute penalty.

But the Reds staged a late comeback as Jamie Redknapp slotted a penalty of his own, Irwin was dismissed and Ince swept home the winner on 89 minutes to clinch a draw against the old rivals.

Each weeknight during the summer we'll reveal four more from our countdown from 6pm BST on LFC TV. 11-minute highlights will then be available on LFC TV Online the following morning. LFC TV is available FREE to view on SKY channel 434 and Virgin channel 544 (as part of the XL pack).

I remember that match so well, for the fight back, but also for the hypocritical Man U Supporters heckling of Ince, the same player they criticized West Ham Supporters about when he played for Man United.
