Tottenham Hotspur 3–1 Arsenal FC on 14 April 1991

The first semi-final to be played at Wembley delivered one of the greatest goals ever to be seen at the stadium.

Arsenal were gunning for the Double, but Spurs' adopted Geordie, Paul Gascoigne, struck a 30-yard free-kick which forced BBC commentator Barry Davies to cry "schoolboy's-own stuff."

Clever build-up play enabled Gary Lineker to grab a second before Alan Smith gave the Gunners hope with his effort.

Lineker struck a third which slipped through David Seaman's hands from outside the area - an achievement for the England goalpoacher - which gave his team a chance to return to Wembley in May for the showdown against Nottingham Forest.

Spurs won the Cup, although Gascoigne's second famous kick of the competition, at Forest's Gary Charles, landed the Geordie on a stretcher and denied him the opportunity of climbing the Wembley steps.
