10 Reasons Why Liverpool Fans Are Jealous Of Everton
2. Everton Have Defeated Manchester United In An FA Cup Final
May 20 of 1995 is a day that will remain etched into Everton folklore for time immemorial, and it pretty much has to be considering their FA Cup victory over Manchester United that day is the last time they lifted a major trophy. Many Liverpudlians would swear the Red Devils are greater rivals to their club than their blood-blooded neighbours, and how theyd love to get one over on their arch enemies in the final of Englands premier knockout competition in front of a packed-out Wembley. Joe Royle guided Everton to their only silverware of the last two decades at the end of the 1994-95 season, with Paul Rideout heading the only goal of the game to sink Sir Alex Fergusons United, who also lost their Premier League crown that term to Blackburn Rovers. Liverpool faced United in the FA Cup final the following season, with Eric Cantona scoring the only goal of the game for the Red Devils. The two sides have contested one other final in the competition - that was in 197677 and the Merseysiders went down 3-2.
