| Description |
|
Germany 1, England 5 commemorates the game that elevated coach Sven-Goran Eriksson to his (albeit temporary) status as greatest living man in England, after an unforeseen and unforgettable pummelling of the team England love to hate. September 1, 2001, will linger long in the memory as the day England travelled to Munich for a vital World Cup qualifier against Germany and quickly went one-down in time-honoured tradition. Lest we forget, only a few months previously Germany had soiled the last ever international at Wembley with a victory that sent little Kevin Keegan into a spiral of self-loathing; they boasted a 28-year unbeaten home record; and the hosts had already booked alternative matches on the World Cup play-off dates that this 5-1 result hilariously forced them to change. Youll know the story--a Michael Owen hat-trick, plus superb strikes from Steven Gerrard and Emile Heskey, as the Germans look on aghast--but the magic of that late summer evening is worth wallowing in again. The pictures and commentary are from the BBC--Motson and Brooking (with no option to turn them off, unfortunately)--and you get the full 90-minutes, all the relevant replays you could wish for, plus the pre-match build-up and some post-match reaction interviews from the night itself. This is a cherished snapshot of a sporting moment when anything seemed possible for England. On the DVD: Germany 1, England 5 on disc comes with a reasonable selection of extras--though the lack of alternative commentaries cuts down on the repeat-viewing appeal. "Player Cams" are not alternative takes of the match but mini-montages of action featuring Beckham, Owen, Gerrard, Heskey and Scholes. "Goal Frenzy" offers extended montages of the goals themselves. "U21 Highlights" are extended highlights of the corresponding U21 qualifier. --Alex Hankin |

Liverpool - The Treble - Full League And Cup Season Review 2000 - 2001
|
2001 and Liverpool are prizewinners... again. Its been a long time coming, but Houllier has conjured up a historic feat, and Liverpool--the Treble--Season review 2000-2001 is a must for any self respecting LFC fan. In a never-to-be-forgotten season the team captured an unprecedented cup treble, alongside the small matter of a Champions League qualification for the first time, after all "Liverpool without European football is like a banquet without wine!"--Roy Evans. It is all here, pre..

Liverpool FC - Team Of The Eighties
|
I guess I expected some artistry, other than the football. this is a premier league team with enough money to make something a little more special here, perhaps bring back the feeling the fans got when we were the best in the country and world reknowned. Never the less, I did see plenty of that foot..

Everton - Everton vs Bayern Munich

If like me, you were one of the fortunate 49000+ inside Goodison on that famous night, this DVD will without doubt take you down the most marvellous of memory lanes. From the expectation of the night, to the silence following the Bayern goal. From the jubilation of Sharpys equaliser, to the enevabil..

Englands Dream Ticket [2001]

A very poor DVD/video. Spends longer on the friendlies such as Spain etc that it does on the Germany 5-1 victory.This DVD typically gives comprehensive highlights of a warm up friendly, followed by only the goals from the World Cup matches. Shouldnt it be the other way round? Dont waste your mo..

Leeds United - The Glory Years 1965-1975 [1988]
|
This video shows just how dominant Leeds were during the glory years, without actually picking up their just rewards. As a Leeds fan I have bought this video 3 times over the years and that should tell you how many times it gets watched. The only video to show the famous match Vs Southampton where L..
