Good day. Thank you so much for the historical match. Enjoyed and liked of course. Bravo! Lots of love and greetings from your subscriber. Country Azerbaijan.❤❤❤👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏
What a day that was. I was behind Jim Standen's goal in the second half but I saw Ticker ghost into the space for the winner. Great match, with Bobby Moore reading the game like no other. Time and time again he stopped an attack by anticipation alone. What heroes, the lot of them. Hammers' finest hour, we thought... Next year I was back at Wembley with Alan Sealey for once hitting the barn door twice, and then the year after that the World Cup games and that amazing final. Things are great right now for Irons fans, but those three years will never be bettered.
Having a heavier ball, clothing, shoes and a slippy field is normal that this football seems slower. But if you put all these conditions in the table, you conclude that the difference between modern football and this football is not so much. Today's footballers are not those super athletes compared to this footballers, the intensity of this game is quite comparable to the intensity of modern game in Avery conceivable way.
3:58-not even the slightest thought of making a pathetic dive to get a penalty ! You can tell you are watching real football-also when the FA Cup was huge and winning it was on a par with winning the league! Life goes on, but I'm so glad I was about to have seen the game as it was.

My grandparents emigrated to Canada in the late 1950's. Upton Park was always hallowed ground for them.
Great quality picture even tho our TVs never saw it like that.
Attendance for the 1964 FA Cup Final was 90,000 fans.
so what ?
100,000.

north end should have won that final the bubble boys got lucky
Interesting that the Preston players credited West Ham with being the better team on the day.
