Great moment in Coventry City's FA Cup history: Dave Bennett's winning goal against Leeds United in the 1987 Semi-Final at Hillsborough This evocative photograph captures the thrill and excitement of Coventry City's historic FA Cup Semi-Final victory over Leeds United at Hillsborough in 1987. With the score tied at 1-1 after 90 minutes, the tension was palpable as both teams prepared for 30 minutes of nerve-wracking extra time. In the eighth minute of the additional period, Coventry City's number 7, Dave Bennett, seized the opportunity to write his name into the club's annals. As Leeds United's Marvyn Day came out to challenge, Bennett deftly slips the ball past the onrushing keeper, sending his team on their way to their first FA Cup final. The jubilant scene in the photograph encapsulates the elation and relief felt by Coventry City fans as they watched their team secure a place in the FA Cup Final against Tottenham Hotspur. The image serves as a reminder of the club's rich history and the memorable moments that have shaped its identity. This vintage action photograph, taken by PA Photos, invites viewers to relive the thrill of that fateful day at Hillsborough and celebrate the indomitable spirit of Coventry City Football Club. The black-and-white composition adds a timeless quality to the image, making it a must-have for any Coventry City fan's collection or for those with an appreciation for the history of English football.
