00:31Welcome to our FA Cup tie special.
00:33Such a quickening of interest and excitement when that old cup comes around again.
00:37And today we have three ties that have a good spread of that excitement and goals as well.
00:42Our line-up, Southampton against Manchester United.
00:45And it's beating him off the post.
00:48West Ham against Luton.
00:49Notting it down for Robson, he must turn it in.
00:52Oh, what a miraculous save by Reid.
00:54And Leeds against Bristol Rovers.
00:58What a save and what a shot.
01:01So it's going to be action all the way today as we start with the match of the round.
01:05And certainly it lived up to it.
01:06Southampton against Manchester United.
01:08Commentator Gerald Sinstadt.
01:11In the centenary year of the FA Cup, here is as intriguing a third round tie as you could wish
01:17to find.
01:18Southampton against Manchester United.
01:20Being played here at the Dale in Southampton on a dismal, rainy afternoon.
01:24And here come Manchester United.
01:29And this Manchester United line-up shows only one change from last week.
01:34Edwards and Kidd, who'd been speculated as possible droppings, retain their places.
01:38And the one change, this man, number 11, George Best, after his absence last week, comes back.
01:46And now Southampton.
01:49Southampton with many youngsters in their side.
01:52McCarthy, Fry, young O'Brien.
01:56And now quite an experienced player and certainly a power in this side.
02:00Mike Shannon with 10 goals to his name already this season.
02:03And today's referee, Mr. Keith Walker from Ashford in Kent.
02:09And it's Southampton in the strikes who kick off.
02:12Manchester United in their change strip, yellow shirts and blue shorts.
02:17Ron Davis, number nine for Southampton.
02:19Cut out by Willie Morgan.
02:27Tom O'Neill, back for Stepney.
02:39Burns.
02:42Rawls did a flick, didn't work.
02:44Stokes bringing it away.
02:46Back for McCarthy.
02:50Burns using that well first time for Charlton.
02:54And Best was impeded, obstructed by Gabriel.
03:01Gabriel, I think, feeling a little the injured party there.
03:05I think Best just ran into him.
03:08Best himself is going to take the free kick.
03:14To Gowling.
03:17Kidd, tightly marked, no chance at all.
03:21Payne.
03:24Shannon.
03:26Couldn't control it.
03:31Charlton.
03:33For Morgan.
03:35Best and Law in the middle.
03:39Not a difficult catch for Martin, but a good header by Law.
03:40Out there, Kidd.
03:41Good interception by McCarthy.
03:44Young full-back has done so well coming into this side.
03:48Gowling.
03:51Jenkins' interception doesn't work.
03:54Morgan.
03:55Best gets his head and Law is there.
03:59Not a difficult catch for Martin, but a good header by Law.
04:08Big climb by Edwards, and it looked a bit suspicious.
04:12The linesman flagging because he got up on the shoulders of Ron Davis.
04:23Try with the free kick.
04:28Now will he find Ron Davis' head?
04:30Yes, he does.
04:32Shannon can't get to it, but Davis' shot!
04:34And a beautiful save!
04:37Davis' astounded, and well he might be.
04:41Good interception by Stokes.
04:44Payne.
04:45Coming right forward.
04:47And a beautiful ball.
04:48He plays two for Jenkins.
04:53O'Brien is available there, number 10.
04:57Tried to do too much.
05:00Really could have played the simple pass then.
05:03Best.
05:07O'Brien, a little bit surprised to find that he didn't win that.
05:12And all he has in fact won is a lecture from Mr Walker,
05:15and indeed a booking.
05:18Antidact may have been for something he said.
05:20He had two or three goes at best.
05:23Didn't succeed in winning the ball from him.
05:25Then the whistle went, and then the book came out.
05:28Ford's best injured part.
05:38Kidd.
05:40Nice dummy.
05:41And a great shot and a fine save!
05:44What were they doing?
05:46The goalkeeper had it in his hands,
05:48and it was kicked away by a back.
05:55Stokes, and they've recovered their poise.
06:02Davis.
06:06Jenkins, who likes to lie back and use his speed.
06:10This time a pass for...
06:12Well, it could have been for Gabriel, but in fact was taken by Byrne.
06:18Shannon.
06:23It's a corner.
06:30Going forward is Stokes, Bobby Stokes.
06:32It's got a great deal of height to contribute, but a real ferreter.
06:38Good header by Shannon.
06:39Helped on by Stokes.
06:41He was in the right place.
06:43He was in the right place.
06:51Offside against Law.
06:55Jimmy Gabriel running that back line for Southampton,
06:58and knowing Dennis Law of old.
07:02And the rain in no way abating.
07:13Morgan.
07:15Stokes.
07:17Stokes.
07:18Well done, Edwards.
07:26Kidd.
07:30Charlton.
07:32For Brian Kidd.
07:34Good running by him.
07:35And well cut out by Gabriel, but Best is there.
07:39And the ball not yet killed.
07:41Gowley.
07:42And he shoots.
07:42Well blocked by Gabriel.
07:45Morgan.
07:45It's furious in there.
07:48Nobody.
07:49Morgan.
07:52Well, everybody had a turn, but nobody could do it.
07:58Poor Eric Martin there, hopping around,
08:01just expecting that sooner or later one would get through.
08:05And now Law on a decoy run, but it's still not clear.
08:09Gabriel, and it's Gabriel who finally gets it away for Jenkins.
08:13Gabriel really doing some sterling work knitting that defence.
08:16Fry and O'Brien.
08:20Jenkins.
08:22And it's beating him off the post.
08:26And it's beating him off the post.
08:26Extraordinary shot from Jenkins that Stepney couldn't touch, came down off the bar, and Davis couldn't get there.
08:39Payne's throwing.
08:41Payne's throwing.
08:42Payne again.
08:42And it's come out to O'Brien.
08:48It's offside.
08:53Nice little nod from Law for Best, and he's made some space.
08:57He's got Law still with him.
08:59He's trying to go it alone, but Gabriel was watching the ball and not the flickering feet.
09:03And Charlton has let go of left foot.
09:05But really, Tony Byrne knows all about, could well have a headache till Sunday lunchtime from that.
09:21Best is going to take the corner again.
09:24Kidd has come to the near post.
09:25And it's long and deep for Sadler.
09:28Law can't get up.
09:29Charlton Cannon's gone wide.
09:31Off a defender for a corner.
09:34Bobby Charlton absolutely in disbelief there.
09:39Law's come out to take defenders out.
09:42And it's come through to Kidd, but Martin has saved his.
09:46Payne always available there for that little throwout.
09:53Davis.
09:55Stokes.
09:58Fry.
10:01Bobby Charlton for Manchester United.
10:07Edwards.
10:10O'Brien a little touch and getting it back from Shannon.
10:16Southampton's ball.
10:21Jenkins.
10:25Stokes.
10:27Shannon touching it on again for Stokes.
10:30This is good football by Southampton.
10:34Good defending by O'Neill.
10:38Corner to Southampton with ten minutes to go to half-time.
10:43That must be Stepney's.
10:46Really needed that one.
10:48But he was covered by Edwards.
10:53O'Brien making a bit of a meal of that for McCarthy.
10:58Fry.
10:58Sly, Davis and Shannon.
11:02Hey.
11:03Perry Payne on the left there now.
11:06And Shannon showing tremendous determination.
11:09Off Stepney's knees.
11:11That was a powerful run by Shannon, really using his strength and his resolution.
11:21Gowling doing some good work and getting it out to Morgan.
11:26And he was fouled.
11:37Extraordinary in a game with so many determined attacking players that we haven't yet had a goal.
11:42Morgan.
11:45Kids Cross for Law's head.
11:48And he's found it.
11:49Best jumps over it.
11:50Charlton!
11:58A long cross from Kidd, finding Law's head.
12:02Bobby Charlton jumps over it.
12:05Dennis Law jumps over it and Bobby Charlton left absolutely free to hammer it in.
12:10Bobby Charlton the scorer, his eighth goal of the season, putting Manchester United 1-0 ahead with eight minutes to
12:17go to half-time.
12:18Kidd tried to sell a dummy when he should have released the ball and trips Fane and also displeases him.
12:30No satisfaction for Fane in having the ball placed for him.
12:34Davis coming at the far post with a great header.
12:38Miles above them all.
12:42Kidd.
12:44Law.
12:45Morgan going left.
12:47Kidd on to Morgan.
12:50Vester's in the middle, so is Law.
12:53And Kidd here with a gap.
12:55Should have used it first time.
12:57He's got the crossover and he's found Best.
13:00Charlton!
13:04Gowling now.
13:05And Charlton again.
13:07But United could have had another one there.
13:16George Best, who really must have thought he had a chance then.
13:21And there is the half-time whistle.
13:23And so, Manchester United go in with a 1-0 lead.
13:28And a happy situation for them.
13:30But Ted Bates, the Southampton manager, not so happy with his situation,
13:36knowing that he now has got to pull his side up
13:38and get them back on their feet after this goal by Bobby Charlton
13:42that has put Manchester United 1-0 in the lead at half-time.
13:58And it's Manchester United who get us away in the second half.
14:03The rain not in any way lessening during the interval.
14:08The pitch, of course, getting heavier.
14:09The lines have been remarked, or certainly the penalty spots in the goal lines.
14:14And a good catch there by Martin, out of the rain and the lights.
14:22And now Southampton have no choice but to go forward and hunt for goals
14:26to try and force themselves back into this game.
14:30Shannon, the man who can do it if anyone can.
14:36Davis back to O'Brien, who's shown no signs of his injury,
14:40but giving the ball away there to Best, which is a dangerous thing to do.
14:44And that looked a very calculated trip by Roger Fry.
14:47And Mr Walker's hand goes to his back pocket, which is where he keeps his notebook.
14:55And that's a booking for Roger Fry.
14:59Really no choice at all there.
15:01A deliberate trip on George Best, earning Fry his second booking in a relatively short league career.
15:09Made his league debut in May against Crystal Palace.
15:18So it's a free kick to Manchester United, only just outside the box.
15:26Dennis Law waiting on the far side, on the edge of that picture.
15:30Kidd hammering it, and it's gone off for a corner.
15:34And it does seem that having seized the initiative,
15:37Manchester United are determined not to let it go.
15:41Best there, as Charlton takes the corner.
15:44And it's headed away by Shannon, to Davis.
15:52Still, Southampton haven't got it away.
15:54It's Morgan, but the whistle has gone.
15:56Some pushing in that little scrimmage.
16:06McCarthy, and a good deep cross, Davis' head!
16:11Hesitation in that defence, and disbelief on Davis' face.
16:18Neil has gone down the line.
16:20Morgan eventually squeezes it through to Charlton.
16:22And out the long one to Kidd on the touchline.
16:25Best and Law in the middle.
16:29Charlton.
16:32That was touched away by Martin.
16:35It might just possibly have been swinging wide of the post,
16:39but it was a thunderbolt from Charlton,
16:42and a great save by Eric Martin.
16:46This time hit deep, but not deep enough.
16:49Gabriel's got it away to Payne.
16:53Cut out by Burns.
16:55Difficult one for him.
16:57Picked up now by Best.
16:59Gowling's push on.
17:01Intercepted by O'Brien.
17:02And the whistle has gone, I think,
17:03for something that Stokes must have said.
17:09Certainly Mr. Walker said something.
17:13Not pleased, Mr. Walker.
17:16Gowling's up on the edge of the box.
17:18Meeting it now.
17:19Playing it back for Charlton!
17:23Didn't finally bring it off, but it was well-schemed.
17:30Davis watching it all the way.
17:33Jenkins keeps it in.
17:36Beat off two tackles, but he couldn't beat Edwards,
17:39who really has had, I should think, his best game
17:41since he came back into the first team today.
17:45Shannon.
17:47Shannon.
17:49Walked down by Edwards there.
17:52Shannon have beaten him.
17:54Referee interpreting that as no more than a mistimed tackle.
18:00Or is he?
18:01Or does he want Edwards to come back and talk to him?
18:04Yes, he does.
18:11Yes, he's prepared to give him the benefit of the doubt,
18:13but he's making sure that Edwards understands that.
18:19Payne's free kick, and Davis there!
18:21And Gabriel!
18:22Gabriel!
18:23Gabriel!
18:24Gabriel!
18:30Gabriel, the scorer, the goal made for him
18:34by Davis's header from Terry Payne's free kick.
18:38A brilliant header by Davis,
18:40and great opportunism by Gabriel.
18:42A man who already has a cup winner's medal
18:44that he won with Everton in 66,
18:47but he surely can't have been more pleased that day
18:49than he is at the moment.
18:53And the referee reaching for his book to Morgan.
18:59Booked as though Gabriel was trying to intercede
19:01on Morgan's behalf,
19:04but Morgan is certainly booked.
19:11Little Bobby Stokes, who came into football
19:14with a burst, scoring two goals against Burnley
19:16in his first match,
19:18has turned into a real destroyer in midfield.
19:23And the rain now absolutely soaking the spectators,
19:28but so enthralling has been this game.
19:30I guess a lot of them have scarcely noticed it.
19:38Many of evidence on George Best's chest of the mud.
19:41And that is the end of the proceedings.
19:45Manchester United have started their cup campaign
19:47this season as they did last season with a draw.
19:50And what a draw it was.
19:51A titanic struggle.
19:52A goal scored for Manchester United
19:54in the first half by Bobby Charlton,
19:56equalised in the second
19:58by the man of the match for me,
20:00Jimmy Gabriel,
20:01wearing the number five shirt
20:03for Southampton.
20:04A really fine third round cup tie.
20:07The conditions triumphantly overcome
20:09and the players leaving the field
20:12with an honourable draw.
20:14Southampton won,
20:15Manchester United won.
20:18So, a wonderfully competitive cup tie there,
20:21now to be played all over again
20:22at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.
20:24But now here's Jimmy Hill
20:24with his view of yesterday's game.
20:26Well, in fact, it was a competitive cup tie
20:28and a most enjoyable one
20:29under extremely difficult conditions.
20:30Congratulations to all 22 players
20:32and to the referee, Keith Walker,
20:34for providing such an entertaining afternoon.
20:36Lots of good performances from young players,
20:38but it was two veterans, really,
20:40fighting for the major honours of the game.
20:42The first Manchester United's Bobby Charlton
20:44really running around like a two-year-old
20:46on that treacherous surface.
20:48He was dominating the middle of the field
20:50with Morgan,
20:51who was here on the ball in the first half,
20:53and always taking the opportunity
20:54to have a crack from this position.
20:56That one's too high,
20:57but there was plenty of power in it.
20:59And the next shot brought out
21:00a really marvellous save
21:02from goalkeeper Eric Martin.
21:03There's Bobby who starts the move there,
21:06nonchalantly plays it out to the left wing
21:07and watches it's laid back,
21:08this time with his left foot.
21:10A first-time shot,
21:11accurately going there
21:12for the far corner of the goal
21:13and a really brilliant save by Martin,
21:16applauded there by Bobby.
21:17And from this free kick,
21:19showing how full of running he is,
21:21he pushes the ball up
21:22and goes striding after it
21:24for the return.
21:25This time, I think,
21:26he made the mistake
21:27of trying to guide it in the corner
21:28instead of letting go
21:30one of his blasting shots.
21:32But just look at the running he did back.
21:34Here's Jenkins,
21:35who picks up the ball,
21:36scoots down the line there,
21:38and who's that?
21:39Cutting him out
21:40and kicking the ball there
21:41for a throw-in,
21:42but Bobby Charlton,
21:43full of running throughout the game.
21:45And finally, of course,
21:46it was he who got the goal
21:48to give Manchester United the replay.
21:50Starting from the free kick,
21:52Morgan on the ball here,
21:53lays it out to Kidd,
21:55who crosses a very...
21:57That's a very accurate
21:58first-time cross,
21:59and we get a wonderful shot here
22:00of Dennis Law's ability
22:02to get himself in the air
22:04and win the ball.
22:05A dummy from George Best,
22:07and you daren't leave
22:08Bobby Charlton there,
22:09point blank,
22:10in front of goal,
22:11without expecting
22:12to have a goal scored against you.
22:13That was Bobby Charlton's
22:15performance yesterday.
22:16But he didn't have it
22:16all his own way
22:17among the veterans
22:18because Jimmy Gabriel
22:19was trying to insist
22:20that he was the best player
22:21on the field
22:21and made out a very good
22:23case for himself.
22:24And fittingly,
22:25it was he who was rewarded
22:26by scoring Southampton's
22:27equaliser.
22:28Similar type of goal
22:29in a way.
22:31From a free kick there,
22:32Terry Payne chips it up
22:33in the air,
22:34and this time it's
22:34Ron Davies' turn
22:35to win it in the air,
22:36and Gabriel,
22:38bounding in there,
22:39scores from point blank range
22:40all the enthusiasm
22:41in the world
22:42to give Southampton
22:44a replay,
22:44which they too deserved.
22:45I think no one would argue
22:46that a draw was a fair result.
22:48I thoroughly enjoyed
22:49the game there yesterday.
22:50I'm sure everybody else did.
22:51What's going to happen
22:51in the replay?
22:52Well, obviously
22:53Manchester United
22:54must be favourites now,
22:55but if Southampton fight
22:56as hard as they did
22:57on Saturday,
22:57then they won't have it
22:58all their own way.
22:59What about George Best?
23:00Well, I saw him at West Ham,
23:01I saw him again yesterday,
23:03and I'm beginning to wonder
23:04whether all that extra training
23:05he's been doing
23:05really agrees with his system.
23:08Well, we take a break now,
23:09and after that we have
23:10more cup tie action for you
23:12from the games at Leeds
23:13and at West Ham.
23:14So, stay with us.
23:25And welcome back.
23:26And still to come
23:26on the programme today,
23:27West Ham against Luton,
23:28a match described
23:29in the Sunday Telegraph
23:30this morning
23:30as a classical cup tie
23:31with enough action in it
23:33for a dozen games.
23:34But before that,
23:35we switch to the north
23:36for Leeds against Bristol Rovers,
23:38a match that went
23:38its predictable course,
23:40certainly,
23:40but enough goals in it
23:41to add spice
23:42to the afternoon.
23:43Commentary by Keith Macklin,
23:44pictures by Yorkshire Television,
23:46Leeds in white.
23:48Good running by Stephens.
23:52Loads of space
23:53for Jones to work in,
23:54but that rebounds
23:55off Hunter to Bremner,
23:57now Leeds a chance
23:58to break with Giles.
24:01Bates on the right,
24:02Lorimer roaming.
24:04Gray roaming also,
24:05he's come over to the right.
24:07Giles,
24:07but there is a man on the left.
24:12It's Jordan.
24:14Bremner.
24:18Bates,
24:19lot of room.
24:21Lorimer hits it,
24:23and it must be a goal,
24:24and Giles is the scorer,
24:25Shepard couldn't hold
24:26the shot for Lorimer.
24:28Lorimer whacked it
24:30with that powerful right foot.
24:31Shepard couldn't hold it,
24:33and it's Johnny Giles
24:34who slots it in
24:35for Legionite's first goal.
24:38Poofer,
24:39something it down,
24:41and cut out nicely
24:42by Taylor.
24:45Stephens,
24:46Godfrey,
24:47good play by Rovers,
24:49meant for Bannister.
24:54Badeley.
24:56Roberts has seen that
24:57and has come right up
24:58to intercept it
24:59with a good header,
25:00and Roberts is still there.
25:03and that shot was deflected.
25:06Renate,
25:07Giles.
25:08So Rovers
25:09obviously
25:09know what they've got to do.
25:12And Bremner slipped out
25:13to the left.
25:14That wasn't a good pass.
25:16Taylor,
25:17and neither was that
25:18for Giles.
25:20the flag is down.
25:22Lorimer can move in on it.
25:24He's got two men with him,
25:26and the goal is untenanted.
25:27Hit it.
25:28Off the boat.
25:29He only just made it.
25:31It's number two
25:32with Peter Lovner
25:33for a long time,
25:35and in the end,
25:36it went in
25:36off the boat.
25:46Godfrey getting his head
25:47to that.
25:48Bates.
25:49Lorimer's away again.
25:50Clean through
25:51and round the goalie
25:52and down.
25:53Penalty.
25:54Can't be any doubt
25:55about that.
25:56Lorimer was clean through.
25:57Dick Sheppard
25:58brought him down.
25:59Little else he could do,
26:00and it's a penalty.
26:02The goalkeeper
26:03being spoken to.
26:06Probably saying
26:06to Mr. Morris,
26:07well,
26:08all I could do
26:08was go for the ball.
26:13So,
26:13Leeds United
26:14already leading
26:15by two goals to nil.
26:16Have a spot kick.
26:19Johnny Giles
26:20has picked up the ball
26:21and is bringing it
26:22towards the spot.
26:29Giles,
26:30who scored
26:30the first goal
26:31for Leeds United
26:32this afternoon,
26:34in line now
26:35for the third.
26:38Shepard,
26:38the man on a hiding
26:39to nothing.
26:40It's there.
26:413-0 for Leeds.
26:45Second goal for Giles,
26:47third for Leeds,
26:48and Leeds,
26:49Warring Miracles,
26:50coasting
26:51into Monday's
26:52fourth round rule.
26:58Hunter,
27:02Rini,
27:05Giles,
27:08and Bremner,
27:09again to Giles.
27:13Again,
27:14a little too
27:14intricate,
27:15not coming off.
27:17Rovers have four men
27:18up,
27:18Allen is one of them.
27:22Jones,
27:22another on the right,
27:23Stevens.
27:24A low one,
27:25a chance for Allen,
27:27a score.
27:28It happened.
27:31A gap in the Leeds
27:32defence just once
27:33too often,
27:34and Allen,
27:35the man who put
27:36the finishing touches
27:37to it.
27:38Stevens,
27:39the man who made it
27:40with that low cross,
27:43a slight deflection
27:44in the penalty area,
27:45and Allen was
27:46cleaned through
27:46to make it 3-1.
27:51Madely getting up,
27:53Parsons,
27:54to Higgins.
27:55Higgins a long one
27:56for Allen to chase.
27:58Kept in by Madely.
28:00Rini there.
28:10Cooper.
28:13Fine pass meant
28:14for Galvin who gets it.
28:16Gets it away from Prince.
28:17Roberts and Taylor
28:18coming across.
28:20Galvin still going.
28:22And a shot.
28:23And say no,
28:24second time.
28:26Shepard stopped the first,
28:29but he couldn't stop
28:30the rebound.
28:31It's Peter Lorimer again,
28:33so two for Giles,
28:34and now two for Lorimer.
28:3737 minutes of the
28:39second half gone.
28:40Shepard came flying up
28:41to stop the first
28:42Lorimer shot.
28:44but then Lorimer
28:45touched home the full,
28:47and that surely
28:48has now stitched it up
28:50for Leeds.
28:50Our third game today,
28:52West Ham against
28:52Luton at Upton Park.
28:53Another match that had
28:54that essential inequality
28:56that goes to make
28:56memorable cup ties.
28:58A damp, drizzling day,
28:59but 32,000 people
29:00well rewarded
29:01as First Division
29:02comes face to face
29:03with the second.
29:03The West Ham team,
29:04they're having a good run
29:05without serious injury,
29:07again at full strength,
29:08and their substitute today
29:09is Peter Eustace.
29:12As for Luton Town,
29:13they too having a good run
29:14that has taken them
29:14to midway in the
29:15second division.
29:16They've also been able
29:17to name an unchanged side,
29:18still a comparatively
29:19young side with their
29:20best days to come.
29:21The referee today
29:22is Ken Burns
29:23of Starbridge.
29:30So Luton,
29:31the second division side
29:32in white shirts,
29:33black shorts
29:33and red stockings,
29:34defending the goal
29:35to our left.
29:36Get us away,
29:37West Ham,
29:37in their customary
29:38Clareton Blue.
29:41Looking for West Ham.
29:44And a throw to Luton,
29:46to be taken by David Court,
29:47the former Arsenal player.
29:50Best,
29:51right in there.
29:52Ryan,
29:54to Court.
29:57Lampard,
29:58but again only to Court.
30:00And Brookings,
30:03Keane just slicing out
30:04a foot there
30:05and finding Vic Hallam.
30:06back now to Alan Slough,
30:08the number three.
30:09Good run there by Slough
30:11and Bond staying with him
30:12and in fact winning it.
30:15Yes.
30:17Obstruction there
30:17by the Luton town player
30:19and a free kick to West Ham.
30:24And a free kick to West Ham.
30:27Luton,
30:28eight games now
30:28without defeat,
30:29so they're very much
30:30in the right frame of mind
30:31for this test.
30:34West Ham,
30:35of course,
30:35with glowing memories
30:37of their last home game.
30:38A 3-0 victory
30:39against Manchester United.
30:40A good ball there
30:41from Robson to Lampard.
30:43Bonds now
30:44to pick up this one.
30:47Lampard again.
30:52And yet again,
30:53Brookings.
30:56Good play there
30:57by Brookings.
30:58Turned it towards Haas!
30:59Oh,
30:59and a goal by Haas!
31:021-0 to West Ham
31:04with under two minutes gone.
31:10A nice slanting cross there
31:13towards the near post
31:14and Hurst
31:15always alert
31:16in off the crossbar.
31:18West Ham ahead.
31:21Hallam.
31:23And over on the left,
31:24the ball for Peter Anderson,
31:26the top scorer for Luton.
31:27Former amateur with Hendon.
31:29Faced by Bobby Moore.
31:30Good play by him!
31:31Oh,
31:32and the number 10.
31:34Given so very nearly
31:35connecting there.
31:38But if that's the sort of stuff
31:39that Luton Town
31:40have made of,
31:40then there's plenty of
31:42problems yet for West Ham.
31:48Nice piece of play there
31:49by Redknapp.
31:50Again,
31:51the game already beginning
31:52to flow
31:53with a lot of good movement.
31:55Lampard
31:56brookieing off in chase,
31:58but Ryan will get there first.
32:01And West Ham's through.
32:09Well,
32:09a splendid enough opening,
32:10certainly,
32:11and now brooking with the throw
32:12for West Ham.
32:12Clyde Best.
32:14Will he shake off nickel?
32:16He has.
32:16A little cross there.
32:17Oh,
32:18and almost an own goal
32:19by Keane
32:20against the post.
32:21Back off is
32:22the post
32:23and behind
32:23for the corner.
32:26And it means really
32:27in the first three minutes
32:28we might so easily
32:29have had three goals.
32:31Clyde Best then
32:32to take the corner
32:33for West Ham.
32:34A short one to Lampard.
32:37Lampard's cross
32:38and Tony Reid
32:39gathering it well.
32:41Now Hallam.
32:47Stopped by Moore.
32:48Beautiful piece of timing there
32:49and Moore is hurt.
32:53And Moore is not
32:54the sort of player
32:55to show this sort of
32:57acting
32:57if it wasn't there
32:58for real
32:59and it looks as though
32:59Bobby Moore might be
33:00badly hurt.
33:02And the corner
33:03to West Ham
33:03and it'll give
33:04Ken Burns the chance.
33:07The chance to get
33:08Rob Jenkins on
33:09to give Bobby Moore
33:10a bit of attention
33:11and Moore really
33:12does look to be in pain.
33:15West Ham manager
33:16Ron Greenwood
33:16with substitute
33:17P.E.
33:17is just
33:18and Bobby Moore
33:18now being carried off
33:19on the stretcher.
33:27Nickle
33:28and now Lampard.
33:46Ryan
33:47that's out of play.
33:58The ball not
34:00fully over the back
34:01of Lampard's
34:02head of foul throw
34:04and a throw
34:04instead to Luton.
34:05Don Givens to take it.
34:07Come on!
34:11Keane.
34:14Now Moore.
34:16Oh,
34:17and Anderson
34:18have gone right in there.
34:19He's obviously
34:19going to be
34:19a flitting little danger.
34:26McDowell.
34:28Bonds.
34:30Redknapp.
34:32Again,
34:33he's got the beating
34:33of Alan Slough,
34:34Redknapp.
34:35But Slough
34:35still coming back at him.
34:37The ball still in play
34:37only fractionally
34:38but it was there.
34:39First for the header
34:40and now West!
34:41Yes!
34:42Right West!
34:4725 minutes gone,
34:482-0.
34:50Somehow Redknapp
34:51kept that ball in,
34:52got it across,
34:53flicked on by Hurst.
34:55Reid just got a hand to it
34:56but Best was there
34:58to punish
34:59anything in that
35:00Luton defence
35:01that was going free
35:02to make it 2-0
35:03for West Ham.
35:05And a par for West Ham.
35:07Oh, he's shown too much
35:07of that to Gibbons
35:08and Gibbons now
35:09takes possession
35:10for Luton.
35:14Oh, and it gets through
35:15as well.
35:16Passed by Hallam
35:17didn't come off.
35:20Well, the pass to Hallam
35:21from Hindson.
35:24And now it's Brooking.
35:27Oh, Brooking going on
35:28and he's got to be stopped
35:29and he's stopped
35:29eventually by Ryan
35:31but now it's to Redknapp.
35:33Played nicely there
35:34for Billy Barnes
35:35across again there
35:36towards Brooking
35:36and it wouldn't fall out
35:38either for Robson
35:39and Luton get it away.
35:41Redknapp again
35:41who seems to be everywhere.
35:43Lampard.
35:44Forward again
35:45and he's all right
35:46he's onside
35:46is Brooking.
35:47Crossed again
35:48and behind for the corner.
35:51Hurst nodding it to Redknapp.
35:56Ryan there for Luton
35:57but only straight to Redknapp.
35:59This time Bonds
36:00is trying a different approach
36:01by going on the right there.
36:02Redknapp getting it
36:03across again
36:03and again Ryan was there.
36:05Now Lampard to Brooking
36:07turning over that ball
36:09beautifully
36:11towards Billy Barnes.
36:13Clyde Best waited
36:14and he waited in vain
36:15because Luton got it away
36:16then Heimson
36:16puts it straight back
36:18to Redknapp
36:19and Nichol
36:20to get this one away.
36:21Luton for the moment
36:22under a very heavy siege indeed.
36:24Redknapp to McDowell.
36:27Nichol.
36:29Robson
36:30and now Hurst
36:32still Hurst
36:33back to Robson
36:34flick wide there
36:35for Redknapp
36:35and now for Robson again
36:37and a beautiful ball there
36:38to Redknapp
36:39across the goal
36:40and Nichol again there
36:41in the nick of time
36:42for Luton.
36:43But some lovely play there
36:44by West Ham.
36:49Hurst
36:52this time
36:52Slough
36:53was pushing him
36:53in the back
36:54and it's a chance
36:54for West Ham
36:55to float a free kick.
36:57Hurst
36:57to do it
36:58fairly quickly
36:58oh and Reid
36:59lost it
37:00and Ryan
37:01to put it
37:01behind
37:01for the corner.
37:04That really was
37:04uncharacteristic
37:05of Tony Reid
37:06who is a very safe
37:07goalkeeper normally.
37:12And the whistle
37:13goes for half-time
37:14a highly entertaining
37:16first half
37:16it's been too.
37:18Jeff Hurst
37:18having put West Ham
37:19ahead
37:20after just two minutes
37:21and the second goal
37:22coming from Clyde Best
37:24the number eight
37:24for West Ham
37:25after 24 minutes.
37:26So a half-time score
37:27in this cup tile
37:28Upton Park
37:29that reads
37:29West Ham United
37:302
37:31Luton Town
37:320
37:44And so here we go
37:46for the second half
37:46West Ham
37:47comfortably placed
37:48two up
37:49but Luton Town
37:51attractive side
37:52that have shown
37:53in one or two breaks
37:53in the first half
37:54that they're by no means
37:55out of it yet.
38:03Taylor to take the throw
38:07Slough
38:10and now caught
38:13Bonds playing the ball
38:14a perfect tackle
38:15from behind there
38:16where he played the ball
38:17twisting his foot
38:17round the man
38:19and now it's Lampard
38:23trying to get
38:24Clyde Best away
38:25against the speed
38:26of Ryan
38:27and Best is there
38:28with it
38:28the cross there
38:29towards Hurst
38:30nodding it down
38:31for Robson
38:31he must turn it in
38:32oh what a miraculous
38:34save by Reid
38:44John Ryan for Luton
38:49caught beating Brookie
38:54Hindson
38:56good ball there
38:57by Hindson
38:58for Keane
38:59and McLeal
39:01giving away the corner
39:10Hindson
39:10Hindson
39:10crossing it
39:11and crossing it well
39:12and Gibbons
39:13a wonderful goal
39:15there for Luton
39:18a nice little crossover
39:19from the left
39:20and there's Gibbons
39:21thundering him
39:22with his header
39:22to make it 2-1
39:25now Nicole
39:30to Moore
39:30planning a lot more
39:32men forward now
39:33Luton Town
39:33Gibbons
39:34across there
39:35towards Anderson
39:36they're all lining up
39:38there to try
39:38and get a shot in
39:39and caught
39:40no more than a yard wide
39:56and a free kick
39:56and a free kick given to West Ham
40:01no mistake
40:01arm aloft
40:02indirect
40:03although from that sort of range
40:05deep in the West Ham
40:05half that I would think
40:06is purely academic
40:16over everybody's head
40:18to Clyde Best
40:24Robson
40:26Lampard
40:28Brookie
40:29always taking up
40:30such good positions
40:31and he was tricked
40:33and a penalty given
40:34a penalty for West Ham
40:37Moore having tricked
40:39Brookie
40:40just inside that area
40:41according to
40:42referee Ken Burns
40:47and so Jeff Hurst
40:49whose last three goals
40:51before he scored
40:52so early in the game
40:53today
40:53had all come from penalties
40:58now to put it on the spot
41:02and he saved it
41:04oh and he couldn't
41:05turn it back to Robson
41:07a marvellous save
41:08by Reid
41:12a tremendous shot
41:14by Hurst
41:15where he always puts them
41:16and Reid was there
41:18to block it
41:21all credit to this
41:23brave Rootan goalkeeper
41:25and I suppose
41:26at the same time
41:27you've got to start saying
41:28that Jeff Hurst
41:29has got to start thinking
41:30of another way
41:31of taking penalties
41:34Hallam
41:37to Moore
41:38no one more relieved
41:39than John Moore
41:40the man who gave away
41:41the penalty
41:42Heinsen
41:47and now Heinsen again
41:48beating Robson
41:50what a swing in the pendulum
41:51now
41:51as McDowell is forced
41:53to give away the corner
42:01Mike Keane
42:02a low cross this time
42:04and Lewton players are there
42:05Niccoloma is getting it in
42:07and just across that goal
42:08and behind
42:33Ryan's header
42:35and now with David
42:37caught from Anderson
42:38still caught
42:39trying to flick it through
42:40a nice interception there
42:41though by
42:43number two
42:44McDowell
42:44but Lewton in possession
42:45again with Keane
42:46played forward for Slough
42:48they really are plunging
42:49men forward now
42:50as they've got to do
42:54and Slough getting it
42:55across as well
42:56flicked on again
42:58and now
42:58Heinsen
42:59oh and he's hit the post
43:05Moore
43:08shaken off Billy Bonds
43:09Moore going on
43:11and a fair looking ball
43:11there
43:12if Court can get to it
43:13he can
43:13oh but he slipped
43:14what bad luck there for Lewton
43:16and Robson now
43:16Moore west hand
43:19only as far as Keane
43:20can Keane
43:21this Lewton skipper
43:22inspire Lewton
43:23towards an equaliser
43:24in these last five minutes
43:25Heinsen
43:25getting it across again
43:27and again Ferguson there
43:28to gather it well
43:31as Hallam came in on him
43:42Nickle marginally
43:43misjudging that header
43:44but Ryan was behind him
44:04Clyde Best
44:06still he goes on
