    Kevin Ratcliffe won a European Cup Winners Cup Final with Everton (Alan Harper was on the bench). Former City coach Alan Sealey scored both goals in West Ham's 2-0 1965 Cup Winners Cup win over Munich 1860. Kevin McDonald played regularly in Liverpool's 1985/86 double winning team.

    I remember Maradona running after Lynex to swap shirts at the final whistle of the Hand of God game in '86. They were very much the Ronaldo and Messi of their day but there was a great mutual respect between the two.
