The turning point, according to Lacey, had been the introduction of a patently unfit Villa midway through the second half. "With his natural attacking tendencies," he wrote, "Liverpool and particularly Souness began to find space in the midfield that had not been there before." Bob Paisley's side ran Spurs into the ground during extra-time, Ardiles blotting his copybook by giving the ball away in midfield ahead of Whelan's second goal, Ian Rush tapping in the killer blow in the last minute. Spurs, having chased three cups, would be knocked out of Europe in the semis by Barcelona, and would end up making do with the retention of their FA Cup. Not a bad consolation prize, though, eh?
