00:07Here we are on the last Saturday of the Football League season and still any one of three teams
00:14can win the First Division Championship. But we feel that this is the game Manchester United
00:18and Liverpool because we are likely to be able to see the First Division Champions,
00:22the eventual Champions and the Cup winners. At least we see the Cup Finals. Now we have
00:28a look at the Manchester United side first. We see that they have a change of centre-forward.
00:34David Hurd is out and Noel Cantwell, the left-back, normally is playing at centre-forward. Otherwise
00:41this is the strongest side that Manchester United can put into the field. So Manchester
00:47United have got very few ones. But this isn't the case with Liverpool. With the Cup Final
00:52only one week away, they have three of their star players still on the injured list. And
00:59if we have a look at their team, there's only about, only eight of these players are in the
01:03first squad for Wembley. Missing St John, Callaghan and Milne. So Liverpool then have really got
01:12one in a white shirt. So that's Manchester in the dark shirt. And Noel Cantwell, the club captain, but
01:18not captain today, playing at Sintour-forward.
01:26See with what urgency Liverpool play.
01:32Bit of a win, a round, very firm. Conditions, I have to say, perfect ball.
01:37Flip from there. And now here's Thompson.
01:47This is Chisnell, former Manchester United player to Stevenson.
01:59Liverpool now, of course, that there's only a week to go before the final. They've got to hit the winning
02:04streak.
02:06Best. Best.
02:19Stevenson still getting it up to Thompson.
02:23Pinelli to Chelsea.
02:29Best coming in very quickly. Here's Best, very quick thinking.
02:32And a great save by Yates. The referee has given the goal kick.
02:41Again.
02:43Oh, beautiful ball.
02:45The pair into Charlton.
02:47And it's hit the post.
02:55Well, that's how championships are won and lost.
03:08One of the up-and-coming players of English football is for Tom Smith.
03:14Up down to Thompson.
03:17He's got Chisnell free on his left if he wants to part with it. There's Chisnell.
03:26Liverpool playing some neat football without a great deal of bite.
03:31Don't want to take any risks.
03:34But certainly not lying down for Manchester United.
03:39Charlton.
03:41Law coming up on his right. Here's Law.
03:45All five forwards up now.
03:47To Best. He's offside.
03:51Offside.
03:55United come on the attack again.
03:57No score.
03:58Charlton has come nearest to scoring so far.
04:03Out to Best.
04:06Law.
04:07Cantwell.
04:08Hovering in the middle.
04:09There's Cantwell.
04:10In goes Yates.
04:12Dominating centre-half.
04:18Charlton.
04:19Can't watch Law get up to it though.
04:21It's Yates beating everyone.
04:24Now Cannelli from Creran.
04:27Cantwell.
04:32Liverpool fans hope that Lawrence is in that sort of form at Wembley.
04:36Number five.
04:38Towering run Yates for Liverpool.
04:42Made a great game Yates.
04:50Charlton.
04:51Creran calling for it.
04:52There's Creran.
04:57I've never seen Creran pass the ball so badly as he
05:00is doing this afternoon.
05:02Usually so accurate.
05:04Let's see what he can do with this one.
05:06He's got Law close to him on his left.
05:10And then can't make it.
05:17Charlton.
05:17Making it with supreme accuracy to Cannelli.
05:21Which again Law.
05:22That's it.
05:32Oh and Old Trafford has exploded.
05:37The police sensibly facing the crowd.
05:40There's Dennis Law the scorer.
05:44No nonsense about that one.
05:54Cannelli back to Creran and now Charlton.
06:03Manchester United had it starting to buzz.
06:06Cannelli can't well.
06:08No goal.
06:10No.
06:10The referee has disallowed it I think.
06:22Well number ten Law is the captain for the day of the Manchester United side.
06:27Number nine Cantwell is what is called the club captain.
06:46And the whistle goes for half time.
06:49With Manchester United another step on the way to the championship.
06:53Leading one goal to nil.
06:55Liverpool the reigning champions.
06:58We start this second half.
06:59Liverpool the reigning champions.
07:01Now look as if they're going to hand over their title to Manchester United.
07:05Their opponents today.
07:07Manchester United.
07:09Won their last five matches in succession.
07:13Last lost at home way back on December the 5th.
07:17Now they can play with renewed zest in the second half.
07:22Knowing that one up must keep in the lead.
07:24Because Leeds are there.
07:26Leading at Shekel.
07:27But here's Hunt for Liverpool.
07:29Up to Strong.
07:31And Stiles.
07:32That is where Lois.
07:35Still as cool, as calm, as confident.
07:38And as confident as that.
07:39Now they're up to his feet against Yates.
07:57Ten minutes of the second half gone.
08:00Manchester United still lead one nil and here's Law.
08:03Across to Charlton.
08:04And whoosh and it's in the post again.
08:07A fantastic shot by Charlton.
08:10That is the second time this master marksman.
08:16There he is number eight has hit the post in this match.
08:27Now, Law to Charlton.
08:29Charlton now to Konelli.
08:30And the second half, just like the first half,
08:33with Manchester United doing all the attacking.
08:35And Law is hurt.
08:46Law is hurt.
08:49The referee hasn't seen this, but Law followed into the net.
08:54And I think he's...
08:59He got tied up with the netting.
09:15Is he going to be all right?
09:23Yes, Dennis Law.
09:27Punished in the night's door.
09:29O.D. Europe's number one player.
09:30The man scored his second goal of the match.
09:34From Manchester United, 2-nil.
09:36End the lead against the crowd chanting.
09:38Dennis Law.
09:39Dennis Law.
09:40Football, but football without fight.
09:46Stevens.
09:50No great urgency about the Liverpool game at all.
10:03And here comes Dennis Law coming back onto the field.
10:06He's just come out of the dressing room.
10:08This is Dennis Law hobbling back onto the field.
10:11All smiles with two girls under his belt.
10:16There's the bandage on his right leg.
10:25And there goes Dennis Law.
10:28And there, by the way, you see the news stand in the background.
10:31Under construction.
10:32The best.
10:39Oh, Konelli Law.
10:41There.
10:50Up comes the let back.
10:52Down.
10:58Crer it's ago
11:06John Conelli the man who's got back into the England squad is rated 3-0
11:1510 minutes left to play
11:22I hear Hans douches no law
11:36both linesman signal that the 90 minutes over
11:46Conelli and Smith gives away a corner
11:51oh no it's not out
11:56alright that'll teach you to chase everything
12:03Graham
12:09quick glance is watched by the referee
12:12and
12:14there goes the whistle it's all over
12:17Manchester United have won by three goals to nil
12:20but we now have to wait to see what are the results from the other matches as the players congratulate
12:27each other
12:28Manchester United no doubt wishing Liverpool the best of luck at Wembley
12:32Liverpool wishing Manchester United the best of luck in the championship
12:35but what have Chelsea done what have Leeds done
12:39and what the other teams have done makes it certain that the championship may not be decided even on Monday
12:46night

12:49but Leeds and Manchester United still neck and neck with Leeds
12:53a point ahead but only one game to play on Monday night
