Italy - Holland at euro 2000. Though it was a bottle job more than a steal.
Worst robberies in football history?

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Netherlands - Brazil 1998. Should have had a penalty.
It was either this one or that one yea. In retrospect, that's more of a steal, against Italy we just failed utterly whereas in 98 we were great in that match.
God, those were really our glory days. Even if we got to the final in 2010, 98 and 2000 is the strongest Ive seen us.
Sorry about what, that we keep beating you?Wow, that‘s being offside by almost 2 Ronaldos!
Sorry, i had to. Still like you.

Their 3-2 winner was actually offside twice in the build up.
Malaga’s 2-1 that should’ve sealed it was given despite being offside as well though so Dortmund ended up having to do the impossible of chasing 2 goals in the last 10 minutes due to a Malaga offside goal.
Dortmund were the better team over the two legs and came up with 2 goals in stoppage time to win it.
That team was much stronger then the 2010 team indeed.
It was a glorious, heroic victory for good
Nonsense, everyone knows that the only correct way to play football is how we do it. Fancy like Oberyn Martell when he's fighting the Mountain.
The Mountain in this scenario would be the guy who's penalty ball was discovered in the Oort CloudNonsense, everyone knows that the only correct way to play football is how we do it. Fancy like Oberyn Martell when he's fighting the Mountain.
I'm reading about the Oort cloud in a book right now, what a silly coincidence.
Wasn't that Jaap Stam?
I love playing you guys. It‘s called the European Classico for a reason.Sorry about what, that we keep beating you?
And i have absolutely no problem admitting that you are the biggest club there is.
I hate you and respect you at the same time while always rooting for you opponent. And in this CL you are the lesser of 4 evils so go get that cup!
Yep. Best defender of his era
Robbery as when the Officials were bent or incompetent? Or a smash and grab job? I don't think a smash and grab job should be called a robbery.
Surely Newcastle at Anfield today.
They should have been about 8 goals down

Agreed. Plus usually it's great entertainment as we tend to be the two best sides in europe when we playI love playing you guys. It‘s called the European Classico for a reason.

Had a funny feeling that game would become one of these, the timing of this thread allied with the ''Portsmouth at OT in 2008'' theme recurring throughout the game, with wave after wave of sitters missed.
Leeds' win two weeks ago at Man City is one of the strongest contenders in recent Premier League seasons, surely? Two shots all game and an entire 2nd half with 10 men. One of the only occasions I genuinely believed a mistake had been made on the live scrolling commentary when Dallas scored the second goal.
The Italians are notorious for it. Calciopoli in 2006 another example. I just couldn't get myself to watch that league, not only I hate the stadiums and Italian mentality on a pitch but also there's a reasonable chance the match is mixed.
More recently, utd vs Sheffield not as major as most listed here but even with VAR it was a shambles.
I can't remember if it was the Lindelof hand in face or de gea getting shoved in this match both stonewall fouls mind.
Maguires goal disallowed for touching the keeper.

Looks like football managerDidn't Celtic beat Barca with 18% possession and 1 shot on target a few years ago? That.
Edit:
Against us, the 2005 FA Cup Final. One of the most one sided final ever lost by the better team.
For us, the famous night in Newcastle in 96 when Eric hit the winner. Pure larceny!
