We continue our look back at the 1984-85 season with a focus on that year’s European campaign. Everton’s greatest team of all were marching towards the Division One championship, when they were drawn against German giants Bayern Munich in the semi final of the European Cup Winners Cup. Bayern Munich were considered by many to be the best side in that seasons competition and still featured some of the team that had won three consecutive European Cup finals in the mid 70’s. However, they hadn’t come up against a team as good as the one built by Howard Kendall for sometime and left England bewildered by Everton’s brilliance.
For Evertonians of a certain generation it is known as the greatest Goodison night of them all. Many younger Blues have grown up on tales of Bayern Munich and the night the Gwladys Street “sucked the ball into the net”. After securing a creditable 0-0 draw away in the Olympic Stadium in Munich, just under 50,000 Evertonians crammed into the famous old stadium for the return leg at Goodison, knowing that an Everton victory would make the Blues significant favourites to secure their first European trophy. The night didn’t all go to plan and despite outplaying their German opponents, Everton went in at half time trailing by a single goal, conceded shortly before half time. Everton knew they needed to score at least two goals to progress with Bayern now in possession of a crucial away goal. Rather than panic, Howard Kendall provided an impassioned half time team talk, telling his players that if they continued in the same vein, the Everton supporters would do the rest and cheer their heroes in Blue to victory.
The story is best told by Ken Rogers, with an extract of his book ‘Goodison Glory’ -
