9 goals in one game? Anything Spurs/Defoe can do, LIVERPOOL can do better...

Spurs deserve a lot of credit for their fantastic 9-1 victory over Wigan on Saturday, but they weren't the first to achieve such a feat. Liverpool got there first in 1989, when Kenny Dalglish's scintillating side hammered Crystal Palace 9-0 at Anfield.

12th September 1989. Five games into a Liverpool's last championship winning season and the club was preparing for the sad departure of John Aldridge to Real Sociedad.
