... They wouldn’t even get to see a goal, but it was probably more memorable for Evertonians than their red counterparts after Alan Hansen appeared to divert Graeme Sharp’s goalbound shot off the line with his hand, only to go unpunished by the referee Alan Robinson. Neither Kenny Dalglish nor his strike partner, Ian Rush, could make an impact.

FA Cup final, 10 May 1986, Liverpool 3 Everton 1 Dalglish had already enjoyed a fairytale ending to his first season as player-manager, having scored the winning goal at Stamford Bridge in the final league game to return the title to Anfield.

... Dalglish brought himself off the bench after 65 minutes for Kevin McDonald and it looked like he would be on the losing side when Adrian Heath’s 80th-minute strike looked to have given Everton a second Charity Shield victory over Liverpool in two years, but Rush equalised seven minutes later and the shield was shared Photograph: Bob Thomas/Getty Images

FA Cup final, 20 May 1989, Everton 2 Liverpool 3 It was just over a month after the Hillsborough disaster when the clubs last met at Wembley and it was fitting that Liverpool should play Everton – whose supporters had stood shoulder to shoulder in grief and dismay when the city was suffering – in the final. It was a game dominated by substitutes. Stuart McCall and Ian Rush, both wearing No14, came off the bench to score twice in a match that went to extra-time.
