A framed signed presentation by Charlie George, commemorating Arsenal’s legendary FA Cup victory in 1971.
The piece is personally signed by Charlie George, the hero of the final, and features the inscription: “Arsenal FA Cup Winners 1971, 8th May 1971, Wembley Stadium, London. Attendance 100,000. Liverpool 1 - 2 Arsenal.”
Presented in a black frame with a cream mount, this signed presentation beautifully captures the moment when Charlie George’s stunning extra-time goal secured Arsenal’s FA Cup win.
The 1971 FA Cup Final was a historic match that took place on 8th May 1971 at Wembley Stadium, between Arsenal and Liverpool. In a thrilling contest, Arsenal won 2-1 after extra time. The game saw Liverpool take the lead with a goal from Steve Heighway, but Arsenal equalised with a controversial goal from George Graham. Charlie George scored the winning goal late in extra time, securing the trophy for Arsenal with a powerful long-range shot past Liverpool’s goalkeeper Ray Clemence.
This match was part of Arsenal’s remarkable achievement of winning the first-ever League and FA Cup double of the modern era, the first double since Tottenham Hotspur’s triumph in 1961. Arsenal had already secured the league title earlier in the week with a victory over Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane. The FA Cup trophy was presented by Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, the President of the Football Association.
In a unique twist, due to the clash of Liverpool’s red kit with Arsenal’s, the Gunners wore their away strip of yellow shirts and blue shorts for this historic match.
This framed signed presentation is a must-have for any Arsenal fan, celebrating a key moment in the club’s illustrious history.
