FA Cup Final 1994 - Manchester United v Chelsea
FA Cup Final 1994 - Manchester United v Chelsea : short review
Chasing the Club's first ever domestic double, United headed into the 1994 FA Cup Final as firm favourites to achieve what no other United team had done before. But whilst the season was very much full of joy on the pitch, it was marred by the untimely passing of Sir Matt Busby off it. However, as one United legacy was fondly remembered, another one was being created. As the rain poured down over Wembley, the match started slowly, and Chelsea who had beaten United twice in the league already in the season, had the better of the opening exchanges. Gavin Peacock was the closest to breaking the deadlock with a fierce dipping volley that crashed against the bar, but it remained goalless. However, after 60 minutes, the game changed completely as United found the kind of form that had enabled them to clinch the Premiership trophy for the second season running. Eric Cantona scored first from the spot, and then 6 minutes later he did exactly the same again, as another Chelsea offence led to a United penalty, and Cantona stepped-up to make it 2-0. United were now red-hot and Mark Hughes all but sealed the victory 2 minutes later as he smashed the ball under a despairing Kharine. It was all United, and the icing was on the cake in the final minute, as another slick move ended with Brian McClair making it 4-0. The double was complete in dramatic style, and Steve Bruce climbed the Wembley steps to equal the Spurs record of 8 FA Cup triumphs. A magnificent day to relive over and over again when United realised their 'double dream'.
