Hibs vs Napoli

[HIBERNIAN-0762]

Just watching probably the worst performance by an Italian team playing in the UK brings me to ask if any footage survives of that brilliant night in 1965, it was defo on TV as I watched the highlights when I got home.

Bobby Duncan's goal is etched in my memory forever.

Unbelievable goal...what a rocket!

Are there any on here that went to the away leg?
What were the scores over the two legs?

I'd be surprised and delighted if footage survives but fear it's unlikely

funny how i can remember that , must be something that stuck in my brain, i was about 11 then.

[Newcastlehibby]

I was 13 and still have the programme. That performance was utterly remarkable. Naples rested their centre forward because they were so confident of getting through. Italian teams were famous for not leaking goals and Naples were top of the Italian league at the time. Hibs were described as the 'green and white furies' I think. One of the finest performances I have ever seen by a Hibs team. Even better than 1.1.73.

I have e-mailed STV at their footage sales dept. enquiring if they have anything on this game

I remember the game well, was 14 at the time

What a night

[Bill Milne]

This was Dino Zoff's worst moment in football, according to the great man himself. He redeemed himself when Juventus beat us 4-2 at ER in 1974-75.

[HiBremian]

Was there too. Immense game. Those were the days when you couldmchange ends at half time, so I was behind the goals for all 5 :-)

Pretty sure STV was there, but I have a funny feeling they destroyed the footage. Otherwise it would surely be online already, no?!

I was in the process of "changing ends" when Duncan scored that amazing goal.

Great days.

So did anyone go to Napoli to watch it? Pretty cool if so

[Seveno]

One of my all time memories as a Hibby. I can remember Bob Shankly being confident after the first leg that we could still go through.

Remember it as if it was yesterday. Was in the enclosure right behind him when he shot and saw the ball scream into the net. Oh for a few more nights like that. Remember Hibs -v- Barcelona when they chased the ref after he awarded us the penalty. Kinloch cool as ice. http://www.hibs.net/images/smilies/fahne8.gif

Pat Quinn had a wonderful game against Napoli-they couldn't get to grips with him at all.

I worked with a guy at the pipecoaters a Scottish Italian anyway he said his old fella was involved with the catering at ER he travelled with the team to Italy as translator ,apparently he was also involved when Joe baker went to torino anyway after the 4 - 1 loss he said to the Italian press come to Easter road and play like that we will wipe the floor with you! Great story i think my mate may have exaggerated it a little like!

Pretty sure the forward they rested was Altafini and that he too got his revenge when we played Juve. I painfully recall Altafini running riot in Juve's 4-2 win at ER. Painful as I say but IMO Juve were the best visiting side I've ever seen at ER

...and finished near the bottom. An old Italian geezer told a mate of mine, whilst on holiday, that the defeat by Hibs really unnerved that team and their season went to pot.

Wasn't allowed to go to that game myself but have vague memories of the TV highlights. My bro' and old man were very excited when they got in to watch them dragged me out my bed so I could watch.
