From Copenhagen, with love

Winning the now-defunct European Cup Winners Cup was perhaps Arsenal's greatest Euro glory. I recall that night when the Gunners took on the holders, Parma in Copenhagen. There was no doubt that the Italians were favourites.

What I saw was a classic Arsenal performance full of resolute, robust defending and relying on the occasional sucker punch counter-attacks. Alan Smith hit the winner in the first half.

Tony "Mr Arsenal" Adams was magnificent that night... so was the back four. They were the rock. The ridiculous Tomas Brolin played for Parma... he's the one who does that insane jumping swivel turn everytime he scores.... Thank God, he didn't get the chance to do so. He's such an eyesore.

The winning scoreline probably holds true as fans sung, "One nil to the Arsenal".
