Top 7 Premier League Moments

The Premier League has had so many big moments, with fans holding their breath in pure shock, awe and admiration. We expect nothing less for the remainder of this season, and to get ready for all the action, why don't you take a stroll down memory lane as we recall some of the most memorable moments in Premier League history?

Sergio Aguero breaks Man City's drought in 2012

Nothing comes close to the amazing finish Sergio Aguero pulled off against Queens Park Rangers in 2012. Following a 44-year drought, Man City were chasing their first league title thanks to new financial backing from the United Arab Emirates. But when faced against QPR, they released that their victory wouldn't be a walk in the park. At half-time, they were down 2-1 and on their way to stoppage time.

Dzeko pulled off an impressive header, levelling the score, but it was Aguero's powerful finish during injury time who brought the game to a spectacular conclusion. Words can't even explain the force of the kick that went flying past Paddy Kenny, the keeper at the time.

Kevin Keegan rant in 1996

Chasing the title in the Premier League can be a heavy burden for players. After his match, Kevin Keegan made this evident. Influenced by comments from Ferguson, which clearly put Keegan in a spot. His response was iconic, saying that they're not going down without a fight and that they're still gunning for the title. This clash of words created tension between coaches, making for the perfect entertainment for fans. Nobody who saw it forgets Keegan's "I would love it..." comment.

Gerrard Slips cost the Reds in 2014

For Liverpool fans, the 2013/14 season brings back painful memories. Despite leading the Premier League, they ended up in a top-four battle with Everton. But that season isn't remembered for the Champions League fight; it's about Liverpool's near-miss.

Gerrard, the captain at the time, pleaded with his team to continue their momentum and not slip after their win against Manchester City, but his slip against Chelsea on April 27th, 2014, changed everything, marking the Reds' downfall for that season. Later, Liverpool's 3-0 lead against Crystal Palace turned disastrous, ending in a heartbreaking 3-3 draw.

Stan Collymore winner in 1996

One of the Premier League's greatest matches defined an unforgettable title race in 1996. Newcastle faced Liverpool at Anfield, aiming to challenge Manchester United for the title. Despite holding leads of 2-1 and 3-2, Newcastle messed up, allowing Robbie Fowler and Stan Collymore to secure a win for Liverpool.

This match, dubbed "Match of the Decade" in 2003, concluded Newcastle's season, marked by early their dominance and ending in disappointment. Kevin Keegan's reactions on the sidelines remain an iconic image of Newcastle's heartbreaking season, which others never fail to remind them of.

Arsenal took the title in 2002

Iconic moments in the Premier League are made immortal by good, comedic commentary. Just shouting a player's name can send shivers down your spine; Prime Martin Tyler is a joy to listen to and a perfect example of this!

Arsenal's historic win at Manchester United is one of six title deciders at Old Trafford, but this one stands out. Despite United's attempts to overpower them, Arsenal held firm, and Sylvain Wiltord's winner secured their unbeaten away record for the season. Their run of 13 consecutive wins, with nine clean sheets, rivals even Guardiola's City.

The Chaotic Battle of the Bridge in 2016

The Battle of the Bridge was pure chaos, to say the least. Being refereed by the Gladiators star-turned-referee Mark Clattenburg was one of the factors that definitely added to the madness. While Leicester City had already secured their historic Premier League win, Chelsea's comeback draw against Tottenham was pure entertainment.

Managers clashed, players were ready to brawl, and Tottenham was extremely lucky. While already booked, Eric Dier's brutal 'tackle' on himself remains a highlight. Eden Hazard made an incredible equaliser. The fact that this match sealed Leicester's title win just made things even more iconic.

That final day in 1995

In 1994/95, Manchester United and Blackburn faced off against one another for that year's title. At this stage, Man United had 87 points, second to Blackburn with 89 points. To win the title, United had to beat West Ham while hoping Liverpool would deal with Blackburn.

Blackburn stumbled to a 2-1 defeat against Liverpool, shocking many who expected Liverpool to ease off against their rivals. Manchester United could only draw at Upton Park and history was made, with Blackburn winning their title.
