What Happened

Hearts best performance in Europe.........EVER!!
Tremendous atmosphere inside the ground even with a 2-0 deficit from the 1st leg. Went 2-0 up in the first-half but lost an away goal just before half-time. Second half performance was inspired with 3 goals being scored without reply. Jim Brown and Drew Busby were heroes that night. Hard to believe that same team were relegated that season.
