Description

This is the first time that the story of Derby County’s European matches has been fully documented in one place. It begins with the club's involvement in the Anglo-French Friendship Cup in the early 1960s through to the Texaco Cup in 1971, but then came the real drama of the European Cup, when the Rams beat the powerful Benfica on their way to a controversial semi-final meeting with Italian giants Juventus. Further featured matches include the Rams hammer Real Madrid and a record-breaking scoreline against the Irish part-timers Finn Harps, while the 1990s saw the reintroduction of the Anglo-Italian Cup and a Wembley appearance.Relive those spellbinding nights here in Andy Ellis's fascinating new book - every Derby County fan should own one.
