Aquella temporada, la 1994-95, el Athletic de Bilbao eliminó al Newcastle, el FC Barcelona al Manchester United y el Real Zaragoza al Chelsea y Arsenal.
interesting comment. do you get your knowledge from the back page of the daily mirror. Kevin Keegan never lost a game in 90 mins when 3-0 up. they won this game and lost the second leg 1-0 (without the main goal scorer playing) . keegan also only ever lost 1 game in the premiership 4-3 and had the best defensive record behind man utd and liverpool (stats dont lie just bullshit)
yes for this ONE example, but 'classic keegan' is surely in reference to this happening again and again. Every football manager in the history of the game is likely to have let a 3-0 lead slip at least once in 90 mins never mind over 2 legs (ferguson - west brom 5-5 man utd) here is a great article which dispels the myth www.averageopposition.com/2013/02/kevin-keegan-case-for-defence.html newcastle fullbacks in those days used to push up so far the pitch the centrebacks were often exposed, so its credit to people like darren peacock that newcastle had such a good defensive record. It was a bold ploy by keegan that was based on the aesthetics of the game that they would outscore the opposition. He should be applauded for that not ridiculed

I am ordering this very Athletic Bilbao shirt in the near future in support of our brothers across the seas.@@inigoalonso5706
Keegans swashbuckling style was great to watch for neutrals. It bore some resemblance to klopp at liverpool.

3-0 up on aggregate and lost on away goals. As you said 'the stats don't lie'

England v Portugal/Romania EURO 2000, 12 points clear at top of league then lost... Doesn't have to be 3-0 just losing from a winning position
