[Football] Greatest comebacks from losing positions

[Weststander]

I was lucky enough to watch it in a dingy taberna in Santiago de Compostela, everyone went batshit at the end!

Isn't that a Real Madrid supporting area, despite its local club? Anti-all things Catalan?

Millwall, Goldstone 2-0 down h.t won 3-2 1977 half the North Stand was Millwall.

And Mullery wouldn't let them in the changing room, so the players spent half time on the pitch.

Jan 2016 Barrow went 3-1 up against Tranmere in the 87th minute.

You guessed it - they lost 3-4.

Millwall were on all sides of the Goldstone that day, with many of them wearing surgical masks!
The North Stand stood their ground , and gave as good as they got.

Colchester boxing day I want to say in the Gillinham years, we were 3-0 down and drew 4-4

The only ‘home’ game I missed that season

I think the locals consider themselves Galician first, and Spanish second. And, as elsewhere, there are probably plenty of glory seeking Galicians too.

Played in a game myself when I was a kid, must have been 14/15 years old.

4-0 down at half time to the league leaders. Gave ourselves a talking to at half time whilst sucking on the half time oranges and came out like a team possessed.

Full time whistle went and we’d turned it round to win 6-5. Absolute scenes.

Has the away game at Coventry been mentioned? Albion 3-0 down with about 15 (?) to go came back to draw 3-3

35 years ago this week Brighton beat Spurs 2-1 with two very late goals. According to the MOTD commentator it was our first home win in the league since December.

I was surprised how lukewarm the response was at the final whistle, nothing like the intensity of this season when we've won at home.

He set the standard by which all others are subsequently measured.

This one was close !!

3-0 down, then 4-3 up, but lose 5-4

Ah, yes, the ex West Ham and Birmingham winger.

Ah, yes, the ex West Ham and Birmingham winger.

Or indeed Mark Lazarus, the QPR player who scored the winner in the 1969 League Cup Final.

"Having gone two goals down by half time, the QPR team staged a comeback during the second half. With nine minutes of the game remaining, Ron Hunt collided with the WBA goalkeeper, knocking the ball loose. Lazarus latched onto the loose ball and slammed it into the back of an empty net, his team winning the match and trophy 3-2."

Just goes to show that being seemingly dead and buried isn't always how it ends up.

Liverpool in the 2005 CL Final. 3-0 down at half-time. Ended up winning.

Doesn't count due to Gerards blatant dive for the pen to make it 3-3 then the Liverpool goalie moving on
his line for the pen shootout like he had ants in his pants.

 

[Sirnormangall]

Hibs were leading Motherwell 6-2 a few years ago. Final score 6-6. You can guess the ex seagulls keeper who was in goal for Hibs......

 

[The Birdman]

I seem to remember that we were 3-0 down away at Coventry in the old first division and came back to draw 3-3. May be wrong though

was it Gordon Smith Hatrick

 

[mothy]

3 nil down at half time against leeds at the amex..

I hate the 'pool' but that was an epic come back in cl final 2005.

This season. I enjoyed Palace 2 nil up against man u..

 

[moggy]

Seem to remember a friendly vs staua beaucarest at the goldstone. 4-0 down at halftime and we won 5-4

 

[maffew]

NSC sponsored a Lewes v Redbridge game (quite) a few years ago, and what a game it was Lewes were 4-0 or 4-1 down and came back to win 5-4
