- Tony Adams scored at both ends as Arsenal secured a valuable point.
As shocking as the pitch at Old Trafford, is the poor crowd of 35,000 with about 5,000 of them being Arsenal fans.
The game was shown live in England on Sunday 2nd April 1989.

Loved it when Adams put in that dishevelled appearance for that FA CUP Live Draw back in 1995 after a 4 hour sesh down at The Chequers. What a lad!.
5000. You can't miss us, it's the only packed part of the stadium
Hark at her, With talk like that Arsenal being champions that season(deservedly)must have gotten more through the Turnstiles at Highbury than a dire Utd! A poxy Average of 36,849 for Utd admittedly. Can you please state Arsenals Ave Att that season! I know what it is I just want you to type it......

Top away support. No geeks, just lads
Awww, someone burst your United bubble ? I was there, look at the away end. Its not hard to miss, it's the only packed end of the ground.......despite the rain & live TV.
Arse hole
great noise from the arsenal end had really good support then what the hell happened
For the record, United had the highest average attendance in the first division that year :-)
So what, man utd in those years were dirt poor, they were rubbish
Errrr that's the point 🤔
That was the game, when next morning they put adams on back pages of the newspapers calling tony adams a donkey
Who has ever been blamed for an own goal, boy did tony adams get some stick in his early years at arsenal in media.
Also, just to be clear, it was Arsenal who knocked Liverpool “right off their f***ing perch”.
@Flashheart Really? 😂 Well Arsenal were champions in 1989 and 1991 when Liverpool were still great (Liverpool won in 88 and 90, their last for 30 years).
United won in 1993 so, no, they didn’t knock them off their perch, Arsenal did and to a lesser extent Leeds in 1992. If United had won in 89 and 91 and 92 then maybe they could argue the fact, but they didn’t.
It was Ferguson’s quote in the 90’s and had nothing to do with total titles and was about ending their dynasty. He was talking shite. Classic United marketing - say it often enough and idiots will believe it.
@Flashheart What are you talking about? You literally have no connection with reality.
@Flashheart Arsenal have been 🚽 a while and have still managed to remain unbeaten against Ya-nited and win 4 FA Cups in 7 years. Hope you enjoyed the game at OT particularly last season.
@Flashheart 🖕🏻Goodnight weirdo.
6,000 Gooners in a crowd of 34,000 at Old Trafford
ClockEnd87: Cup Final for the mighty arse.
u goin for the title for the first time in 18 yrs your usual turnout 1500.
That end held 4500. Early 80s you brought less than half the end,sometimes less.
arsenal were brought around 1200 to 1500 max until 86-87 season when they were top of table then they filled the scoreboard for the first time. meanwhile utd had been taking thousands everywhere since the 60s.
At 4.30 thats me and my mates ones not with us any more rip pete mate he was a top mate anyway the commentator said something about nor being to upest because you have been seen on national tv well we didnt tell are mums we was going to whatch man u and it was live on fuckin bbc only being 12 we got a right good hideing when we got home that night the good old days when you could just turn up and pay £2 to get in oldtrafford
Your punishment was worth it as that point helped Arsenal win the league that season , rip your mate
Yeah. There is
And ? Nobody filled their grounds in those days unless they were playing top teams or derbies. Evenn the scouse struggle to break high 30's for games against the likes of Oxford etc. This was before the football supporter boom of 1990 [further solidified by the arrival of the PL] and was also at the end of a hit and miss season and live TV DID make a difference those days. I remember for this game having to leave Saturday night due to trains.
Also notable for Maiorana rampaging down the wing
Weres the Adams late OG equiliser
Why the hostility Calm down, Do you not feel this footage is incomplete with out the Utd goal! I don't hate Arsenal. I love watching old Highlights from the terracing days. Utd had some great ding dongs with Arsenal in my formative years in the 80s...
That point won league, before any Yanited fans get clever.
I dream of that McClair penalty miss, always makes me smile
8 years. At least that stat is somewhat modern day history. Choke incoming in 5..4..3..2...
No Surrender said everybody else
cant compare utd support to arsenals. a descent turnout ye but thats it. we had huge away support at arsenal for years
And more than half of your league titles have come under the 1 manager
How about 1967-1993?How many league titles did ye win?
Fuck all
you won one title between 53 an 89
***** Always makes me smile watching that bully Winterburn get the shit kicked out of him by McClair in 1990. Also when his arse fell out when Di Canio confronted him LOL
Is there any reason you omitted Donkeys lovely chip over Lukic ?
Listen to the Atmosphere back then i grew up watching football in the 80s the Atmosphere was Racous compared to now simply fucking Awful the soul Reason why is because the Working Class hardcore support have been priced out and replaced by new breeds and corporates
Brian robson was so violent player .
Surely the dippers brought about 6k for the 1-1 draw in 87 [The Moran handball goal] they had all scoreboard right round into United Road
Adams got the name donkey after this match
adams was a great captain an pure arsenal. i dont support or like arsenal but a blind man could see that.
No he didn't. He got it after scoring an own goal playing for England against Holland in March 1988
Sting did it ? Or were you busy googling Arsenals plethora of summer signings ? Or googling trophies to see what thery look like these days
And I dream of McClair picking Downs features himself Winterburn off the floor by his collar in this game
You mean just goons surely
