Few moments in English football history match the drama of May 26, 1989. Arsenal went to Anfield needing to beat Liverpool by two goals to win the league on goal difference.
As the game entered stoppage time, Arsenal led 1–0. Then, midfielder Michael Thomas surged forward, slipped past the defense, and scored with seconds left. Legendary commentator Brian Moore shouted, “It’s up for grabs now!”
Anfield. Last second. Arsenal needed two… and got them. “It’s up for grabs now!” remains one of football’s greatest moments.
