To many Sheffield Wednesday fans, Chris Waddle is the most talented player to ever play for the club, and one of their all-time greats.

On this day in 1993, he showed why with arguably the most iconic Steel City derby goal ever.

Waddle had joined the Owls in the summer of 1992, returning to England after a fine three-year stint with Marseille, and quickly became their talisman on a run to a first FA Cup final in 27 years.

Just two minutes into an epic semi-final with Sheffield United at Wembley, the England legend curled a stunning free-kick home from all of 35 yards, sparking wild scenes.

Wednesday would go onto lose a final replay to Arsenal, where Waddle scored again, but the memories of their journey remain for all who witnessed it.
