Supporters of Everton have been airing their love for match footage from a game against Tottenham Hotspur in 1995 which emerged on social media.
On Wednesday, the footage of the 4-1 victory over Spurs in the FA Cup semi-final clash at Leeds United’s Elland Road (per Independent) was posted to social media, originally by @EvertonMusings (via @TheBlueRoomEFC), which supporters loved.

One of my favourite ever games. Dominated a very good side for 90 mins.

On that day, Matt Jackson, Graham Stuart and Daniel Amokachi, who bagged a brace, were on the scoresheet as the Toffees sealed a trip to Wembley to face Manchester United (via Independent).
The Merseyside club would ultimately go on to win the FA Cup that season, with a 1-0 victory in the final over the Red Devils (per These Football Times), meaning the footage was steeped in memories for some.
loved every minute of it!!

What do we think?
As can be seen in the responses from many Everton supporters, they loved the trip down memory lane back to the season where they won the FA Cup in 1995 (per These Football Times).
With football currently suspended in the UK (per BBC), then there is all the more reason to enjoy historical match footage from halcyon days at the moment.
