20 Southampton legends come together to tell the stories behind their favorite ever games for the club

From Alan Shearer's record-breaking debut hat-trick as a 17-year-old to Matt Le Tissier's last ever goal at the Dell which reduced grown men to tears, here are personal stories never before told. FA Cup winner Peter Rodrigues recalls the day Saints shocked the sporting world by beating Manchester United in the 1976 final while Egil Ostenstad remembers the hat-trick that never was against Alex Ferguson's Red Devils. Southampton greats Mick Channon, Dean Hammond, and ex-beetroot-packing goal machine Rickie Lambert also turn in characteristic star performances, winding back the clock to relive treasured memories of the Match of Their Lives for the Saints.
