The series of features/articles covering Manchester City in the 1970s continues with a reminder of the first goal Manchester City’s first team scored in the 1970s. It was scored by Neil Young on this day (3 January) in 1970 and you can watch it here:
This was a FA Cup tie at Hull that ended 1-0 before at crowd of 30,271.
Although City didn’t win the FA Cup that season this was a glorious year for the Blues. By the end of April the Blues would have two major trophies on the shelf, including the club’s first European trophy (won before so many of today’s perceived European giants). This series of articles and features on the 1970s will run throughout January with indepth articles some days and smaller ‘on this day’ style posts on others. There will be flashbacks to great games, players and more. Every day in January will offer something to enjoy.
