Arsenal vs Manchester United in 1999: What if Dennis Bergkamp scored that penalty in FA Cup semi-final replay?

talkSPORT.com looks at key moments in football history, where events could so easily have taken a different course and asks, what if?

It has been 20 years since Arsenal and Manchester United‘s thrilling FA Cup match. It was a game that had everything from red cards, glorious goals and here, talkSPORT.com ponders what if Dennis Bergkamp scored THAT penalty in the dying moments?

What happened?

United and Arsenal were battling on all fronts domestically in the 1998/99 season. The former were on the verge of sealing the treble, but the latter were looking to win a second successive League and Cup double.

The rivals, and hands down the two best teams in the land, were evenly matched throughout the campaign, but in the end United pipped the Gunners to the Premier League crown by a point on the final day of the season and dumped them out of the FA Cup in the semi-final in the process.

That league campaign was breathtaking and is perhaps forgotten about due to Man United’s clean sweep on the trophy front.

Arsenal, with Patrick Vieira, Tony Adams, Nicolas Anelka and Bergkamp were a well-balanced side blessed with flair, toughness and a very mean defence. Between January and May the back four conceded just six goals.

Only one team could halt their quest for total domination again and in the semi-final replay at Villa Park on 14 April, Arsenal were beaten in extra-time thanks to a memorable Ryan Giggs goal.

But before that there were 90 minutes of pure drama.

David Beckham and Bergkamp scored two great goals, Roy Keane was sent off with around 15 minutes remaining and, as full-time edged closer and people anxiously checked their watches, Ray Parlour was brought down by an exhausted Phil Neville in the 18-yard box.

Penalty to Arsenal.

“I would have had my house on Dennis Bergkamp scoring the penalty,” Parlour later said.

“I remember asking the referee David Elleray how long was left and he said, ‘This is the last kick of the game’. It was Dennis versus Schmeichel and he saved it.”

Cue euphoria from United.

But what if he didn’t miss?

Well, Giggs would not have scored his wonder goal and Arsenal would have contested the FA Cup final against Newcastle instead. United’s treble dream would have been over, much to the delight of Liverpool fans; the Reds having celebrated their own treble success – First Division, European Cup and League Cup – 15 years earlier.

It was neck-and-neck in the title race at the time – a point separated them – and a win could well have provided Arsenal with the boost needed to win the league instead.

“If Bergkamp had have scored, they’d have won the double. That’s just how small the margins are, and I think that’s the standout for me,” current United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said.

In the penultimate games of the Premier League season, United drew with Blackburn and Arsenal lost at Leeds. “Nigel Winterburn was kicked off and [Jimmy Floyd] Hasselbaink scored at the far post and [Kaba] Diawara hit the bar twice,” Arsene Wenger said of the Leeds defeat.

“After that [United] won the Champions League final in the last minutes – it was a miracle year for them,” he added.

Sir Alex Ferguson claimed his players “played in agony to get the victory” at Villa Park following Keane’s red card. A week later, on the back of this momentum, the club fought back from 2-0 down to beat Juventus and set up the Champions League final against Bayern Munich.

Certainly, there is a belief among Gooners that beating United would have broken them mentally and stopped them from becoming English champions at the very least.

“Giggs’ goal is what decided their season,” Wenger said, believing the win gave his rivals the edge in the title race.

“I can still hear the shouts of their team having won,” he said of the FA Cup clash. “They couldn’t believe it because they were down to 10 men. And I think that put them on a wave of euphoria and then they won the title – just.”

Once again, it’s all subjective because no one can say what would have really happened, so we’ll just end with this from Fergie: “That [FA Cup] game had everything, absolutely everything.”

Grant Leadbitter: Sunderland midfielder helps Black Cats to Wembley just a day after his mother’s death

Grant Leadbitter helped Sunderland reach this season’s League One play-off final just one day after his mother died.

The 33-year-old midfielder played the full 90 minutes of the Black Cats’ 0-0 semi-final second leg draw with Portsmouth on Thursday evening after his mother, Susan, lost her battle with cancer on Wednesday.

He spoke of his anguish in an Instagram post on Friday morning as he thanked fans for their condolences.

Leadbitter wrote: “Last couple of days have been tough, not just myself but my 2 sisters too. To lose my mam on Wednesday was horrible, but I know now she is at peace now after tough battle of cancer. She now rests alongside my Dad.

“Life throws you curve balls and we all have to keep fighting. I wanted to play last night because my mam and dad would be disappointed if I didn’t. Thanks for your support and kind messages. Lastly, the job is far from done, we have one more tough game to go.”

Academy graduate Leadbitter’s father Brian died in 2008 at the age of just 50, and his ashes were buried under the pitch at the Stadium of Light.

Sunderland will play Charlton at Wembley for a place in the Championship, with the Addicks booking their place in the play-off final with Friday’s penalty shootout defeat of Doncaster.

MODEST JAPAN AIM FOR FIFTH TITLE

Japan coach Hajime Moriyasu indulged in some early mind games by claiming his side were long shots to win a record-extending fifth Asian Cup title.
"We're the challengers," said the former Japan midfielder, who has yet to lose in five matches since taking over from Akira Nishino after the 2018 World Cup.
"Our job is to try and snatch the title back."
Despite Leicester striker Shinji Okazaki and Borussia Dortmund playmaker Shinji Kagawa being omitted from the squad, former Japan coach Philippe Troussier has tipped the Samurai Blue for glory in the United Arab Emirates.
"Japan have one of the best teams in the competition on paper," said the Frenchman. "Of course, teams like South Korea, Iran and Saudi Arabia have the same ambition, but Japan have the potential to win the title."
Japan open their campaign against Turkmenistan on Wednesday and also face Oman and Uzbekistan in Group F.
Veteran Yuto Nagatomo believes the new-look team, who reached the knockout stages of last year's World Cup after controversially sacking coach Vahid Halilhodzic in the run-up, can spring some surprises.
"We have to believe we can win it," the Galatasaray full-back told local media.

SOUTH KOREA BANK ON SON TO END LONG WAIT

South Korea are hoping forward Son Heung-min's dazzling pace and goals can help them end a 59-year wait to be crowned continental kings.
The 2015 runners-up have put their stamp on the international scene in recent times, stunning holders Germany at last year's World Cup before winning the Asian Games football tournament in September last year.
Son, 26, was at the heart of both successes and his delight was plain to see at the Asian Games where victory earned the team an exemption from South Korea's compulsory, 21-month military service.
He has been in scorching form for Tottenham, scoring seven goals in his last seven Premier League games and he believes a break from international duty in November helped him avoid a mid-season burnout.
Since coach Paolo Bento took charge of the Taeguk Warriors in August, they have been unbeaten in seven matches. Son will, however, miss the first two matches against Philippines (Monday) and Kyrgyzstan (Jan 11) under an agreement between Spurs and the Korea Football Association. He will join the squad in time for their final Group C clash against China on Jan 16.
"The Asian Cup is big for us because we have not won it for 59 years... I am going there to win something," he added.

QUEIROZ EYES FAST START FOR IRAN

Iran coach Carlos Queiroz has demanded a high-intensity start against debutants Yemen in their Asian Cup Group D opener.
World No. 29 Iran, the top-ranked Asian team, are one of the tournament favourites and the Portuguese said they must make their presence felt on Monday.
"I want to develop this kind of instinct in my team, to keep all of our energy so that it explodes in the 90 minutes against Yemen," Queiroz told the AFC website.
"And, when we finish the game, then it's time to think about Vietnam and after that Iraq."
Queiroz urged his team not to underestimate 135th-ranked Yemen.
"The first game is always the most difficult because it's everything for the winner and almost nothing for the loser in a short competition of three games," he said. "There are no small teams.
"I was checking the results of the Iran teams in different competitions, at U-17s, U-20s, and never have Iran beaten Yemen in official competitions.
"There's a reason for that: Yemen might draw or lose, but Yemen are a tough team to beat."
Iran are looking to end a 43-year wait for their fourth title. They crashed out of the last Asian Cup on penalties to Iraq in a thrilling quarter-final.

ADDITION OF TRIO A BOOST FOR THAILAND

The return of Teerasil Dangda, Theerathon Bunmathan and Chanathip Songkrasin may force Thailand to make a few tactical tweaks, but vice-captain Chalermpong Kerdkaew said their experience will only improve the team's chances at the Asian Cup.
Teerasil, who missed out on Thailand's AFF Suzuki Cup campaign last month when they exited in the semi-finals, was named captain by coach Milovan Rajevac. The 30-year-old striker, who plays for J1 League club Sanfrecce Hiroshima on loan from Muangthong United, is the only surviving member from Thailand's last Asian Cup appearance in 2007.
He has scored 42 goals in 95 appearances, while full-back Theerathon and midfielder Chanathip allow them to be more adventurous going forward.
"It is good to have them back in the squad. We are stronger with them in the team," said Chalermpong.
Thailand face India in their Group A opener tomorrow before meeting Bahrain and host UAE.
Despite their underdogs status, Thailand are targeting a first appearance in the knockout stages since 1972 when they finished third on home soil.
"I agree that all the teams that have qualified for the finals are strong, but we aren't afraid of anyone," Chalermpong added.

The ten biggest transfer deals of last summer: Will 2019 beat spending from a year ago?

The merry-go-round of the transfer window is underway yet again with Premier League sides ready to get their chequebooks out.

A host of mega-money deals are already in the pipeline for the 2019 summer market and spending is expected to go through the roof once more.

4

Last summer saw the top-flight’s best go big with a string of high-profile deals being complete.

Some have proven their price-tag were well worth it while a few have completely flattered to deceive.

Here are the top ten priciest players of the 2018 transfer window and how they’ve faired this season.

10). Yerry Mina (Barcelona to Everton) – £28m

Following a fine World Cup with Colombia, Mina moved to Goodison Park for big money.

He impressed when fit but missed so much of the season, that his arrival has been tinged with disappointment. Everton will hope for big things from him next term.

9). Felipe Anderson (Lazio to West Ham) – £35m

The Hammers’ record signing and one of their main highlights this season.

The Brazilian contributed ten goals and four assists and created a host of other chances to endear himself to the West Ham faithful.

8). Richarlison (Watford to Everton) – £38m

A haul of 14 goals made him Everton’s top scorer.

While some raised eyebrows over his price-tag, the 22-year-old proved doubters wrong and will now be looking to kick on after the summer break.

4

7). Fabinho (Monaco to Liverpool) – £40m

Took a long while to acclimatise to his new club but became a key figure of their midfield after Christmas.

Could yet crown a fine debut season in England with a Champions League winners medal.

6). Jorginho (Napoli to Chelsea) – £50m

His arrival saw N’Golo Kante’s role changed much to the bemusement of many.

An undoubtedly classy player but a touch underwhelming this season. Guiding the Blues to Europe League glory can certainly change that.

5). Fred (Shakhtar Donetsk to Manchester United) – £52m

Big money but a big flop.

The Brazilian made only 13 Premier League starts and notched just one goal as United suffered their turbulent season. Will he survive their summer cull?

4

4). Naby Keita (RB Leipzig to Liverpool) – £54m

Keita signed a year earlier for the Reds and his long-awaited arrival ended up be somewhat disappointing.

A mix of injuries and poor form saw him in and out of Jurgen Klopp’s side and he’ll be hoping for a vast improvement next term.

3). Riyad Mahrez (Leicester to Manchester City) – £60m

City’s record signing had to settle for a bit-part role but still produced 24 goals and assists in all competitions.

He’s added plenty of silverware to his CV but could end this term feeling a little crestfallen.

2). Alisson (Roma to Liverpool) – £65m

Liverpool had to go out and buy a quality goalkeeper and that’s exactly what their money got.

The Brazilian kept a stunning 21 clean sheets and conceded just 22 goals in the Premier League. Could he do what Loris Karius couldn’t and help the Reds to Champions League ecstasy?

4

1). Kepa Arrizabalaga (Athletic Bilbao to Chelsea) – £72m

Chelsea’s record signing, the most expensive goalkeeper ever and one of the Premier League’s costly players.

He claimed 14 league clean sheets (only behind Alisson and Ederson) and could end up with a hugely successful debut season. But will forever be remembered for that shocking substitution refusal and defying Maurizio Sarri’s orders.

Tottenham new stadium latest: Paul Gascoigne wants to be part of legends match to be played at £1billion arena

Paul Gascoigne has made a plea to Tottenham to be involved in the opening of their new stadium.

Gazza, the England legend, spent four years representing the Lilywhites, though he only played for the club for three seasons due to the knee injury he suffered which ruled him out the entire 1991/92 campaign.

2

He picked up his injury in the 1991 FA Cup final – a match Tottenham went on to win – with Gazza eventually going on to play for Lazio, Rangers and Middlesbrough before enjoying shorter spells with Everton, Burnley, Gansu Tianma and Boston United.

The 51-year-old is a hero to the Tottenham faithful, but he has so far been overlooked for a legends match which will be played as the second test event for Spurs’ new ground.

Tottenham intend to open their £1billion arena next month, with the Premier League visit of Crystal Palace the first scheduled fixture, but the stadium has to host two test events to be awarded the correct safety certificates.

2

The first event sees Spurs’ Under-18 side take on Southampton this Sunday, before a legends side play Inter Forever the following Saturday.

The likes of Robbie Keane, Rafael van der Vaart, Dimitar Berbatov and Darren Anderton have all been confirmed as part of the team, which will be managed by Gary Mabbutt, but Gazza is surprisingly absent.

And having been made aware of the legends match by users of social media website Twitter, Gazza threw his hat into the ring to make it clear he will take part in the game.

Graham Roberts, the former Spurs defender, commented on the post to express his support for Gazza’s inclusion in the legends match.

Gazza actually missed Tottenham’s farewell to White Hart Lane two years ago, as he was ‘focusing on staying well’, rather than travelling to north London for the revelry.
