WHEN ARSENAL OFFERED TO REPLAY A F.A.CUP MATCH AGAINST SHEFFIELD UNITED>

 In the year 1999 in the fourth round of the F.A Cup played between Arsenal nd Sheffield United.

 Arsenal  wonthe match   but it wa  not a honest  win, first Marc Overmars scored a opener , and later on i the game Sheffield United  equalized. 

 But ten  Sheffield player   was injured, and a Sheffield United player kicked the ball out of play, so he could get the treatment. But Arsenal took a real fast throw in, and  it as not a proper throw in but Kanu scored te winning goal. Steve Bruce e Sheffield United manager, wa angry , ad told Arsene Wenger that he feels sick in the stomach.

 Arsene Wenger  and te Arsenal chairman Mr Dean had a meeting an agred to have replay , and the English F.A allowed a Replay ten days later.

 Here Arsenal won fairly with Marc Overmars heading a goal from a corner ad  Dennis Bergkamp  scoring te winner. Those s Day's we different te sporting spirit of Arene Wanger and Arenal must be praised.

 Today  players have no sporting spirit, Newcastle payer   Wilcox pulled the ball from out of te ptch and continued playing.

 You willnevr see anything like ths today.
