Manchester United Legends return to action this afternoon, taking on Southampton Legends at St Mary’s Stadium to mark 50 years since a famous footballing moment.

The match will commemorate the 1976 FA Cup final, where the Saints pulled off a massive shock thanks to an 83rd-minute strike from Bobby Stokes.

That remains Southampton’s only FA Cup final success to date, though they did finish as runners-up to Arsenal in 2003.

For this special occasion, Bryan Robson will take charge of the Man United’s legends team, captained by Michael Carrick in their most recent outing back in September against Celtic Legends , once again.

Meanwhile, Matt Le Tissier, arguably the most loyal one-club man, is to be player-manager of Southampton legends.
