Was there. I agree, that 7th goal is still the greatest goal I have ever witnessed. I still watch it regularly and show it to younger people as to how football should be played.

The 78/79 was dominated by the powerhouse of a midfield of Mcdermott, Kennedy, Souness and case - i don't think there will ever be a midfield quartet as strong, fluid, skillful, balanced and graceful as that quartet. Only 4 goals conceded at Anfield says it all!

Agreed. With Hansen coming in to replace Hughes, who was injured that game, this 11 was the best ever Liverpool team, in my opinion.

So glad I found this. Thank you Andrew for suggesting I for it. Our beautiful and beloved mother, Aziza took her 7 daughters (age 5-15 years old) to this our first Liverpool match in the Kop end. We loved it. At the final whistle, she beamed and smiled saying there you go a goal for each of you. Love you and miss you Mum for all that you gave us including a love for the greatest team in the world. YNWA. Til we meet and kiss you again 🥰💕😘🙏🏽

It was one of the best team goals ever in my opinion, what a team Liverpool had back then, incredible. If Season 78-79 was 3pts for a win Liverpool would have totalled 98 points that season, 85 league goals scored & only 16 conceded in 42 league games, unreal for back then.

The fluid movement of the ball in this general era of Liverpool teams was breathtaking. All credit to Barca and their possession and skill but I grew up appreciating the beauty of this football and I miss it. Steve Highway was outstanding!

I feel privileged that I was on the Kop that day to see this match. McDermott's goal arguably the best goal ever scored at Anfield.

Remember this game so well. Liverpool were amazing in those days. Spurs it has to be remembered were a very good side with Perryman and Hoddle and had just signed Ardilles and Villa from the 78 Argentina World Cup winning side.....Liverpool told who was boss that day!

Remember this game well, they destroyed Spurs that day. RIP to Ray Kennedy an absolute legend.

A famous game with a famous last goal. Anyone who was around in the late seventies and who was interested in football remembers this one.

I remember that game so well, as I was present, one of my favorite goals, Terry Macs goal to make it 7 was just brilliant, happy days and What an unrated player was Ray Kennedy great player.

That Terry McDermott is one of the best you will ever see in the top flight of English football, absolutely sensational, won Goal of the Year on Match of the Day..........note also, the lack of diving, theatrics, e.t.c. have a look yourself, at other 70s and 80s matches, even the 90s, weren't as bad.

This was my very first ever Liverpool match and I was aged 10. My dad and I were locked out of the Anfield Road terraces and we were forced to stand on the Kop. I was terrified and flew down dozens of steps every time a goal went in. It's the only Liverpool match that I attended - where I didn't want Liverpool to score! I can't remember any of the goals on the day ( I didn't see any!) and I had to watch the highlights on Sunday afternoon.

I didn't see much either! You had to make sure nobody stood on your foot when we scored or you'd go down. I had a wool scarf on and a silky around my wrist. Lol

It is quite clear when you see these old games on here that the quality of player that Liverpool had in every position was phenomenal and in King Kenny Dalglish they had a GENIUS of a player who could have played in ANY World Class team that you care to mention.

@7:40 5-0 up, two players on a hat-trick but the penalty is of course given to the normal taker - shows the mentality of that Liverpool team.

everything was better back then, no buying success, bugger all diving, players were brought through the ranks or in sir bob,s case bought for peanuts and turned into gods! imagine anyone doing that these days! 42 game gruelling seasons in the league, you only got into the euro cup if you won the championship the previous season, 2 bad games in Europe and you were out! only 1 sub per game etc etc, sorry I must sound like an old moaning fart but I,d have the old football back any day, best wishes and peace!

modern day players who take too much time on the ball need watch this, this is how to play football, last goal was awesome, no effing around, just pass, pass, cross, goal.

And they say City do this. No team in history has destroyed teams as consistently and routinely as Liverpool did back then. And they did it for a long time, with several managers and a small squad of players.

one touch crossing from Heightway over the whole Spurs defense to single man Mcdormitt's header....what a greatest counterattack ever...

What they dont show is that McDermott won the header from spurs corner and started to sprint

What the footage didn't show is that our 7th came from a Spurs corner if memory serves me right. There was a few quick passes and we went on the counter.

There's been some fantastic goals scored at Anfield over the years - but I don't think there's ever been a better goal scored at Anfield than the 7th. (OK, maybe Stevie G's winner against Olympiacos in 2004 meant more)

I swear I watched this match on the Kop. I was just 15 and when the 7th goal when in many just stood

Would love to have been there ; was doing a holiday job in bookies. Spurs learnt their lessons well ; seven weeks later the two teams drew 0-0 at White Hart Lane

I saw this first time in 1992 when Granada had a Saturday afternoon football show (like Kick Off) and they would talk to a football legend from the past so that he could talk about his match of choice. In this case, it was David Johnson who picked this 7-0 thrashing of Spurs. IIRC they only showed the goals and David chatted about each one especially his brace. Back then, I would have been only 4 months inside my mum's womb.

Untouchable that day... and Many many other days, left you believing Football was a simple yet Amazing thing, still the best British team for me over that 4 or 5 year period, didn't win them all but they outlasted the teams that beat them once or twice and were serial Winners. Form was temporary, Liverpools Class lasted longer and when they really turned it on they done it with character, style and a swagger. They Knew who they were 👍

I remember this battering Spurs got from this great Liverpool side. Could have been more had it not been for their keeper Barry Daines.

One of the benefits of growing up in Granada tv land was you got Kick Off on a Sunday. When you consider there was no blanket coverage of football back then we were lucky to see Terry McDermott's brilliant goal just by luck. We got to see united 3 v 5 WBA (ohhhh,what a goal) & Frank Worthington's classic v Ipswich too. I don't know if it was Gerald Sinstadt's acres of space comment before the 7th goal but I was amazed how compact Anfield was when I went in 84.It looked enormous on tv. Gola & Stylo matchmaker boots too. Welcome back to junior school.

that team would rip most teams today to shreds

It was the day had it all together. The Scottish players from the World cup were rampant

So often you used to see this against those great Liverpool sides - opportunities missed at one end and then bang bang bang 3-0

My second home Match I was taken too

This was my first match.

As a Spurs fan of many yrs,this still makes painful watching! Liverpool were street's and yrs ahead of Spurs,who couldn't defend then&still can't! And that last goal was for the purists..And if it wasn't for Barry Daines and John Duncan(our number 9!) those 'Scousers wld have hit double figures!

The thing about this Liverpool team and this era was that on paper the Liverpool players weren’t that much better than many of their rivals. I mean Tottenham had 2 world cup winners as well as other players of calibre. I’m guessing what set them apart was a belief, a manager with good judgment and a team first ethic. I noticed how Kenny Dalglish plays a player in, in a better position when on a Hatrick. I’ve watched many of these matches and he’s so selfless.

Classic stuff

It was a really hot day and a massive crowd. The gates were closed an hour before kick off. These were teh days when you turned up on the day of the match and queued to get in. I was a bit anxious because I thought Tottenham were going to choose this match to come good and that their two Argentinians would be making the headlines. In the end there was nothing to worry about but credit to Spurs who kept going and looking to score even when they were getting hammered.
