    In Two Or Three Things I Know About Her Jean-Luc Godard beckons us ever closer to money sex fashion the city love language war: in a word everything. Considered by many to be among the legendary French filmmaker's finest achievements the film takes as its ostensible subject the daily life of Juliette Janson (Marina Vlady) a housewife from the Paris suburbs who prostitutes herself for extra money. Yet this is only a template for Godard to spin off into provocative philosophical tangents and gorgeous images. Two Or Three Things I Know About Her is perhaps Godard's most revelatory look at consumer culture shot in ravishing widescreen color by Raoul Coutard.

    Full match with slow motion replays and commentary by Barry Davies and Lawrie McEnemy. A single goal from Alan Kennedy in the 82nd minute settled this tight and nervous game who was able to take advantage of a lucky break and some shocking Spanish defending. His run into the box should have been checked by Rafael Garcia Cortez only for the defender to miss ball and man and when shooting from a narrow angle he was assisted by a goalkeeper displaying little positional sense. The late goal brought the trophy back to Anfield for the third time. It was also the fifth time in a row that the winners had been an English team. Aston Villa would win it the following year meaning that three English teams (the other was Nottingham Forest) shared in a period of unprecedented dominance by one league.
