1953 FA Cup Final - Blackpool v Bolton Wanderers (2nd half)
  • 3 months ago
The 2nd half of the famous 1953 FA Cup Final between Blackpool and Bolton Wanderers. Bolton held a 2-1 lead kicking off the 2nd half in their bid to win the FA Cup for the first time since 1929. Blackpool were in their 3rd final in their bid to win the cup for the first time in their history, having lost the previous two finals in 1948 and 1951. Could the seasiders stage a remarkable comeback to win it for Stanley Matthews - surely in his last season at 38 (ho ho!) - or would Nat Lofthouse lift the cup for Bolton? What followed turned out to be the stuff of Wembley legend...
