Another that I didn't go to that's definitely worthy of a mention:
Everton vs Wimbledon, May 1994. It was the final game of the season & Everton were sickeningly close to relegation, along with a load of other clubs (I think there was 5 who could have gone down in the 2 remaining relegation places). A win would have kept Everton up, realistically anything else would have meant relegation.
Started off really poorly, a penalty & own goal put Everton 2-0 down after 20 minutes & firm favourites to go down. A while later & Everton got a penalty, nobody wanted to take it in case they were the man that missed the penalty that sent Everton down. Graham Stuart took responsibilty & sent the keeper the wrong way meaning it was 2-1 at half time after Dean Holdsworth put a free header over the bar from a couple of yards.
A 30 yard Barry Horne screamer put Everton level but that wouldn't have been enough due to other results. Stuart stuck away a 2nd to put Everton in front & we were able to hang on until the end to just about stay up.
A year later we won the FA Cup.
