Liverpools comeback to win the European Cup

Our comeback against Man Utd at Highfield Road with Huckerby getting the winner, I was sat right next to all the away fans, got hot tea thrown at me and I was only 12!!

 

[kg82]

Got to be Liverpools comeback hasn't it? Insane game. I remember at ht in the pub I was in Liverpool fans verbally and physically fighting with each other and at ft they were dancing round together!!

 

[Godiva]

Reading - Arsenal in the league cup 2012.

 

[kg82]

Actually there's one from about 97-98, cup match I think it was. West Ham vs Wimbledon. Think it was West Ham went 3-0 up and Wimbledon won 4-3, although it could've been the other way round!

Liverpool AC Milan Champions League 2005 3-0 down at half time to win.

 

[Kingokings204]

Definitely man city v Spurs and I think Spurs were 3-0 ahead at half time and city had a man sent off. Came back and won 4-3 with a man down. Was the best game I've ever seen. It was when Keegan was in charge of city. 2004.

Lance Armstrong. A noble spirit who truly embiggened us all.

 

[skybluetony176]

"I know you are but what am I" has always been my favourite comeback.

 

[The Lurker]

Man city winning the title in 2012 was the best ever. 90 mins losing 2-1 and man utd looking at winning the title then 2 goals in 3 mins. to win a league aswell. marvellous

also cov against preston was good in the jpt :claping hands:

 

[bringbackrattles]

A great comeback of sorts has to be George Foreman at aged 45 winning the world heavyweight title again.
For the young he not only created a grill machine you know !

 

[skybluesam66]

got to be cov west ham in the league cup semi - 2-0 down, turned round to win 3-2, in our first ever semi final

 

[malkitccfc]

Middlesboroughs comeback against Steaua Bucharest in the Uefa cup semis in 2006.

On the subject of boxing Nigel Benns comeback against Gerald McClellan was nothing short of spectacular although the fight ended in tragedy with McClellan suffering permanent brain damage from a blood clot caused by the fight.

 

[RegTheDonk]

Warwickshire v Sussex 93 nat west final. Never thought we would reach that total and won with last ball of the game.

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Marco Pantani, 1998 Tour de France. Turned a 4 minute deficit from the earlier, flatter stages to take a 6 minute lead after the Alpes. The majority of the field may have been tanked up on drugs but he never tested positive.

Anyone who likes their cycling should watch the Marco Pantani film...great watch, sad story.

WM

 

[rupert_bear]

Best comeback of all time has to be Lazarus

 

[Sbarcher]

UK and Allies in WW2 was pretty good.........

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Rocky Balboa vs Ivan Drago.

Textbook comeback.

 

[TrueSkyBlueLiam]

[Skyblueweeman]

Rocky was sporting....Boxing!

 

[torchomatic]

I was on the way to Homebase earlier wheni realised i had fogotten my wallet. I had to comeback and get it. Great.

 

[DazzleTommyDazzle]

Coventry v Spurs, League Cup, mid '90's.

Losing 2-0 at half time with Spurs dominating.

The "just back from injury but not really fit" Dion Dublin came on at half time, atmosphere changed completely, we won 3-2.

Gave me a lot more enjoyment than the Ryder Cup, Liverpool v Milan etc etc

 

[olderskyblue]

Oracle Team with Ben Ainslie at America's Cup in 2013

8-1 down... and won 8-9

Amazing

I hate Man City. It was shite.

United winning the European cup in 99 is the best

Jesus mate, you've spent too much time up there listening to their crap! For football comebacks I reckon Man City at Spurs 2004 I think. 3-0 down at half time and down to 10 men, comeback to win 4-3. For me though the best (yes OP did say sporting) was the miracle at Medinah, sporting drama at its finest and golf of the highest quality under the most intense pressure in America.

 

[stupot07]

Liverpool 3-3 v ac Milan in the champions league final?

Ha ha. If you met any City fans you'd think the same mate.

 

[Johnnythespider]

Had a Chinese take away once, that made a pretty good comeback about an hour later
