Leicester City 1-0 Liverpool, Charity Shield football match at Filbert Street
Leicester City 1-0 Liverpool, Charity Shield football match at Filbert Street, Leicester on Saturday 7th August 1971.
Arsenal won the double in 1970-71 but were unable to take part in the Charity Shield because they had contracted to go on a pre-season tour that clashed with the fixture. The 1971 FA Cup Final runners up Liverpool and second division winners Leicester City were invited to take part instead

EDITORS COMMENTS
Capturing a historic moment in football history, this print showcases the intense Charity Shield match between Leicester City and Liverpool at Filbert Street on August 7th, 1971. The absence of Arsenal, who had secured the double in the previous season but were unable to participate due to conflicting pre-season tour commitments, paved the way for Liverpool and second division champions Leicester City to battle it out on the pitch. The image perfectly encapsulates the passion and determination displayed by both teams as they vied for victory. With every player fully committed to their respective roles, it is evident that this match held great significance for all involved. Leicester City's triumph over Liverpool with a scoreline of 1-0 further adds to the historical value of this photograph. As runners-up in the FA Cup final earlier that year, Liverpool sought redemption against an ambitious Leicester side eager to prove themselves against top-flight opposition. This snapshot from Memory Lane Prints not only preserves a remarkable sporting event but also serves as a testament to how charity can bring communities together through sportsmanship and competition. It stands as a timeless reminder of an era when football was played with raw intensity and unwavering dedication.
