Arsenal 1979 FA Cup FDC signed by the 'Gunners' Manager Terry Neill and scorers Brian Talbot & Alan Sunderland. The First Day Cover is postmarked 12 May 1979.It is regarded as one of the greatest-ever finishes in an FA Cup final. For over 85 minutes the game had been unremarkable, with Arsenal taking a 2–0 half time lead through goals from Brian Talbot and Frank Stapleton. In the 86th minute, however, Gordon McQueen scored following a set-piece, and two minutes later Sammy McIlroy dribbled past two Arsenal players to score a dramatic equaliser.
With the game poised for extra time, United's celebrations proved short-lived, as Alan Sunderland scored a last-minute winner, making the final result Arsenal 3–2 Manchester United. This match is often referred to as the "Five-minute Final".
This signed item comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from leading AFTAL approved memorabilia specialists & saleeers, Chaucer Covers.
