10 Best Premier League Matches Of The 1990s

2. Leicester City 3 - 3 Arsenal 1997/1998

Unrivalled for late goals, this August match at Filbert Street featured one of the best goals ever scored in any match, anywhere in the world, at any period of time. Dennis Bergkamp scored twice (one an utterly sublime bend into the top corner) to give Arsenal a healthy lead after an hour but a scrappy finish from a very young Emile Heskey triggered a mental last 6 minutes. Matt Elliott equalised in the 93rd minute, surely that would be it for the night? Operating in a different dimension to everyone else on the pitch, Bergkamp brought down a speculative loft forward from David Platt, left Elliott behind with two demure touches before passing past Kasey Keller. Still not done though, Leicester pushed forward again and after a brief rally of head tennis, Leicester legend Steve Walsh headed home to rip Filbert Street off it's foundation and complete the most exhausting period of stoppage time to have ever taken place.
