27/11/93 v Arsenal (a) 1-2 Premiership

United were undone by set piece goals from Wright and Smith - Bould getting ahead of Bracewell and Lee at the near post, but Beardsley got one back in front of the travelling army of away supporters at the Clock End.

"This was the first time that Kevin Keegan's policy of not having worked on certain tactical things before a match caught up with us. Basically, we didn't work on defending set pieces and took no notice of Arsenal's tactics. They caught us out quickly and we were chasing the game after that, and they did us again with the same trick because we couldn't get it sorted while the game was going on. Playing on that tight pitch with a noisy crowd was a great experience, but we came off knowing we'd been caught out."
