Unofficial Champions of England: Liverpool 2-1 Manchester City, 22/01/1994

Ian Rush equalises for Liverpool

Liverpool may not have won the league since 1990 but that doesn't mean they haven't been champions since then.

Since winning the Unofficial English Championship, Manchester City had managed to retain their title with a 0-0 draw against Arsenal.

Things looked good for City when Carl Griffiths gave them the lead after four minutes. But it was to be Liverpool and in particular, Ian Rush's day. The veteran striker was perhaps past his peak but could still give a reminder of his glory days on occasion.
First, he was the first to react to Jamie Redknapp's rebounded shot and then in the second half he rose above all the City defenders to head the winners.

A great day for Liverpool.
