(Sep 27, 2015) Jim Clarke said:

After the highs of the quarter final and the fantastic performance in the away leg, this proved to be a bit of an anti-climax with another easy win. It did however give the Kop an opportunity to practice their Rome songs with the Dean Martin classic "Arrivederci Roma" becoming 'we're on our way to Roma"! I'm surprised nobody seemed to notice that our 3rd goal should not have been allowed. The header from Alan Waddle hits the stanchion behind the crossbar before King Kev knocks in the rebound. (Have a look at the video clip above!)

The two teams met again at Maine Road the following Wednesday in the replay. This time Liverpool ran out 3:0 winners to set up a Final with Manchester United at Wembley.
