Following the dramatic game on
Wednesday night between Spurs and Manchester City and with memories of
the superb game between Wolves and Leicester this season, we ask you
which was the greatest 4-3 in recent History. The poll also includes the
games between West Ham and West Brom and Tranmere 4 Southampton 3.
Which is the greatest 4-3 in recent
history?
Tranmere Rovers 4
Southampton 3 (FA CUP)
This game is still one
fondly remembered to all who witness the events unfold in front of the SKY
Cameras on 20th February 2001.
Tranmere were sitting bottom
of the First Division whilst Southampton were having a good spell in the
Premiership. Kachloul, Tessem and Dean Richards had given the visitors a
3-0 half-time lead, but second half goals from Barlow and a Rideout
hat-trick were enough to dump the Saints out of the FA Cup and move
Tranmere into the Quarter Finals.
Wolves 4 Leicester 3 (BARCLAYCARD
PREMIERSHIP)
One of the most dramatic
come-backs of Premiership History. This bottom of the table clash had seen
goals from Scimeca and a Ferdinand double give Leicester a blistering 3-0
lead, but Wolves defied all the odds and won the game. Wolves had not
scored four goals in the whole of the Premiership Season prior to this
game, but a Cameron double, an Alex Rae equalizer and a Henri Camara
winner turned the game around in dramatic style.
West Ham 3 West Brom 4 (FIRST
DIVISION)
This was one of the most dramatic
games of this Division One season. Goals from Defoe, and two from Deane
had given the Hammers a three goal advantage after just 18 minutes, but
Hulse pulled a goal back for the visitors in the closing moments of the
first half before Defoe was sent off for the home side. Hulse, Hughes and
a Brian Deane own goal then awarded Albion with all three points after a
spirited come-back.
Suprs 3 Man City 4 (FA CUP)
The most recent and most dramatic
come-back which saw ten-man Man City overcome a 3-0 first half lead held
by Spurs. Ledley King, Robbie Keane and Ziege had given Spurs a 3-0 lead
just before half-time and the win looked certain when Barton was sent off
after 45 minutes.
However, Man City were not to
be denied as Macken scored a dramatic winner in the 90th minute before
Distin and Bosvelt had pulled goals back.
