My favourite match since starting watching football in 2008, Chelsea 4-1 Napoli i was in a camp and was the only chelsea fan there and everyone told me chelsea are gonna get knocked out as we were 3-1 down on the first leg but i told them we'll win 2-0 and drogba and terry were gonna score. i was so confident about that game, thats how good the old chelsea were :/ i watch the highlights of this game every now and then because for me this match showed who we are, as a club.
Hey guys!! So in this thread I want everybody to mention some of the best football matches they have seen live and why they think that it is worth mentioning. Not seeing the match live and then watching the highlights after seeing the score doesn't count. I only started watching football seriously in the 2014 world cup so all these are recent matches.
My personal favourites are - (Maybe this list is biased in favour of Man United, but I can't help it :)
Liverpool 4-3 Dortmund (Europa League 15/16)
Totally crazy match, Liverpool were losing 1-3 at one point and came back brilliantly to win 4-3. Also it was Klopp's first meeting with Dortmund at Anfield. The Kop's support was phenomenal that night.
Bayern Munich 4-2 Juventus (Champions League 15/16)
Juventus had raced into a 2-0 away lead, but then Bayern scored 2 goals to make it 2-2 at the end of 90 minutes, and then scored 2 more in extra time. I was awake till 4 AM here to watch this match till the end.
Man Utd 4-2 Man City (Premier League 14/15)
Nobody expected us to win, everybody expected us to lose heavily, Aguero even scored first. But then we roared back with 4 goals. Aguero's second goal was a mere consolation.
Netherlands 5-1 Spain (World Cup 2014)
I'm sure everybody remembers this match, if only for that diving header for Van Persie. Netherlands took revenge for their 2010 final loss. This was the match that really consolidated my love affair with Van Persie XD.
Nowhere near the other matches on this list in terms of drama or goals scored, but on a personal level it was very special because I was watching this match with a Liverpool fan, and beating them 3-0 under the Old Trafford floodlights was really very joyful.
That's the top 5 for me, feel free to share any number of matches you like. :D
