Love You Tube for videos like this! Stig Ing Bjorneby, now theres a name I haven't heard for a while! All of these players were my heros growing up and cemented my love of LFC. Remember all the posters on my wall from Match magazine and going to Anfield a few years later and meeting Jason Mcateer. Memories!!
Liverpool had some top talent in the 90s like but their defence was always puke, much like newcastle couldn't see games out. Razor Ruddock summed up where their downfall was because they'd no issue scoring goals with Fowler, Owen, collymore, berger, mcmanaman etc
I remember this match well I was 13 and it feels like only yesterday it was a really good match we had such a good team back then Rush, Banes plus the youth that were Macca, Rednapp,Fowler,Rudduck,Calmity James. Fast forward an were nearly within touching distance of number 19!! COYRM!! YNWA
I felt the same......but I think this good performance at Wembley helped us for the Playoff Final a month later (other than the first 25 minutes which we can pretty much forget!)
I was at this match 27 years ago how time flies, thankfully Liverpool won that day very tough match against Bolton,great atmosphere that day,and a sunny Sunday.
I was there for this match. Parked in a car park and parked next to my mate from the same town as me. Of all the places to park and it was next to him. McManaman got MOTM and introduced his step over in this match. Great day.
I watched this with my brother. He complained a lot about the first half not producing enough chances for Liverpool saying they weren't as deadly as the late '80s Reds team. McManaman was amazing, running at defences and not losing control. A pity it all got ruined by The Spice Boys.
Liverpool were the overwhelming favourites and in the end deserved to win. But saying that, Bolton could hold their heads up high having given them a real run for their money.
We did it!! Absolutely the best day of my life after my children being born and maybe getting married we won the league!! But do u think David James meant that pass at 1.41 lol 😂 YNWA J96 Shanks ♥️
could have won the league in 1996, should have won it in 1997! Roy Evans did a fine job steadying the ship after dalglish's sudden departure and souness' destruction of a settled side. Brought us back to our identity, he should have been given more time in my opinion.
People often forget that we were actually a pretty good side in the 90s as well. We always kept finishing in the top 4, usually top 3 but the problem was that back then it was only good enough for UEFA Cup football and some years we were really unlucky like 1997 finishing on the same number of points as Newcastle but missing out on ucl due to GD and a final day loss to Sheffield Wednesday. We'd reach cup finals quite often as well. We did go a long while without ucl football but it was more difficult to get into it then. These days top 4 is looked at as an achievement. Evans' tenure ended with 3 consecutive top 4 finishes that's basically what Houllier and Rafa did but they're remembered better because it was champions league football in their time
we weren't a better side just because we'd beat them in the cup. thought we put up a good fight that day though and could have nicked it if mcmanaman did not play as well as he did
Bullshit. Commentators over hype Players Massively otherwise no one would take much notice, Look at the keepers making standard saves, and because Players shoot straight at them but there made out to be a super save. They do it today.
The first of Liverpool's lucky cup final wins against supposedly 'inferior' opposition. Commentary from Keegan is typically biased as ever. Bolton who were in the First Division at the time more than matched them on the day and 2 wonder goals saved Liverpool's blushes. Finals against Alaves, Cardiff and Birmingham just showed how poor Liverpool have been. Soon as they come up against someone decent they always lose. Only Final they've won 'kind of' convincingly was the League Cup in 2003, but as they finished 5th in the league that year it was small fry.
+Cash Back Come on!! It was on LFC TV, use your common sense mate. But why are you so obsessed with their success particularly in that year? If they have earned it, they deserve it, as simple as that.
Brian Moore commentating at the old Wembley in a Liverpool cup final win...what more can you ask?
Just beautiful
Aye, + KK @ his side & loved this Liverpool Team/Squad tbf
Could have asked for a Bolton win but can't have everything ;-)
Remember this game like it was yesterday! McManaman was my hero! Used to love Brian Moore on commentary too....he was class
Agreed. Brian Moore is iconic !
Genius goal from Alan Thompson.
Can't believe this was 25yrs ago.
Brian Moore was the best in the business, absolute class commentator.
Normally cup finals fail to deliver but this was quite a decent one to be fair, Bolton more than played their part.
Was at this game too, first and only time at the old Wembley Stadium, walking down Wembley Way, fantastic!
Hearing Brian Moore brings back such nostalgia. He was the absolute best!!

I was 16 at the time, i remember being totally dejected as a bolton fan.
Alan Thompson's Volley.. Absolutely stunning strike.. ❤
Good Bolton team, Mcateer, Thompson and Stubbs
Macca on the Top of his Game
Fifa is the reason I’m here what a beast I never heard about
The great ‘magician’ Sir Stanley Mathews presented the trophy .. 80 years old by then still looked healthy
I remember being at Wembly on the day and feeling gutted that we lost but Liverpool deserved their win, excellent performance from BWFC though.

We really do love League Cup, do we Liverpool fan's.
I was at this match 27 years ago how time flies, thankfully Liverpool won that day very tough match against Bolton,great atmosphere that day,and a sunny Sunday.
I was at this final and had a great day, the weather was beautiful and watching the reds lift the trophy at Wembley was very special.
I was there for this match. Parked in a car park and parked next to my mate from the same town as me. Of all the places to park and it was next to him.
McManaman got MOTM and introduced his step over in this match. Great day.
Thanks for posting, Adrian. I can't believe this was twenty years ago.
Coming up 26 years ago now.
I am a BOLTON fan. I had to watch this game the day after because I was at the match but too pissed to see what was going on .Great game though
The great kevin keegan commentating
The Spice Boys' Finest Hour !
The 90"s where spartan times for the Reds ...but a few good moments
Love those tacky goalkeeper jerseys from the 90's

Brian moore (commentary) classic
Roy Evans almost got it right. it all went down hill after the white suits. the 1996 fa cup semi against villa was the performance of the 90's
4-3
Brian Moore = Football genius.
this home and subsequent away jersey were my first jerseys i got...
Wow Stanley Matthews... Excellent.
I ve searched matches with LFC from the mid 90´s. I have yet to find a game where Mark Wright is celebrating a goal scored by one of his teammates
Liverpool were the overwhelming favourites and in the end deserved to win. But saying that, Bolton could hold their heads up high having given them a real run for their money.
there was nothing like the old Wembley.
True, the new one is pants compared to this one
This team had a better defence than the current one. Infact this is a better team.
Roy Evans as manager will have won more than Rodgers ever will.
Best moment of the Spice Boys Era
We did it!! Absolutely the best day of my life after my children being born and maybe getting married we won the league!! But do u think David James meant that pass at 1.41
lol 😂 YNWA

Shanks ♥️
First trophy i saw lfc lift as an 8 year old . Lfc are the best it just means more.

Steve Mcmacman Very Good ⚽🏆
Ian Rush looks about 55 here

Coca cola cup final was there. What a day
Surprised Ruddock didn't go through the net 2:46
How bad was Calamity?
He was actually really good in this match. That save from Alan Thompson was outstanding.
we signed mcAteer following season
Why were the Bolton fans booing Barnes?
In 1995??
yeah, sadly. i mean look at how few black players are on the pitch and compare that to the prem today.
@Lee lol . He probably fouled someone earlier or said something in the press before the game
m,cAteer, thompson, Scales. pataleinen..great players for bolton then
Scales 🤣🤣 never played for BWFC.
Got mate to drop us off from work to go to this then got train back from Wembley Park
I was there
Mac at his best
The only important man in that stadium was Sir Stanley Matthews.
Mcmanaman battered us that day until gudni came on and put him in his pocket
Bolton were always a better side. They knocked liverpool out of the FA Cup two consecutive years before this.
philip kemp bell a better side lol, drunk posting?
we weren't a better side just because we'd beat them in the cup. thought we put up a good fight that day though and could have nicked it if mcmanaman did not play as well as he did
Yes no one cares
Liverpools last 3 league cup wins were against plucky lower league sides. Easily could of lost them all but found a way. Bolton Birmingham Cardiff
Yep the Liverpool spirit to win
are you forgetting when they beat a very good Man Utd side in 2003? that happened after the Birmingham game by 2 years.
3:16 6:32 8:20

Were baseball hats a thing for goalies in the 90s or was that just this game?
When it was sunny...
It was more common in Italy I think... go figure.
Still are when the sun is in their eyes.
Brucie wore them in the 80's a couple of times I think.
Liverpool GK is wearing a hat to keep the sun out of his eyes? Is still that allowed?
Yep

erm thats a replay of the original tv broadcast just shown on LFC TV
Cash Back yes they finished 5th, but that was enough to win the big ears in 2005
Cash Back record books don't bracket 'lucky' beside the winners name. don't be sour lad.
The Liverpool way unfortunately its never gonna be simple every final we've been in its had abit of madness
I was there
