Football, Alan Sunderland signed 12×16 colour photograph pictured as he celebrates scoring a goal in the 1979 game Arsenal Vs Manchester United. 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. Good condition. All autographs come with a Certificate of Authenticity. We combine postage on multiple winning lots and can ship worldwide.
