Tottenham 2-0 Leicester City
Date Played – May 1961 (FA Cup Final)
Spurs faced Leicester City in the FA Cup final and set out to seal their historic season with a dazzling display. Spurs won the league on 66 points, which in turn equaled the record set by Arsenal in 1930-31 and they were in search of winning the ‘double.’
The pressure of attempting to make history took its toll and Spurs did not play with the flourish that they had done in their previous matches. Leicester put on a gallant fight and looked the better team early in the match. However as the match gradually progressed, Spurs grew with confidence and their troubles further eased as Leicester City’s full back, Len Chalmers went of injured. Spurs comfortably won this encounter 2-0 and won the elusive double.
