Iconic football moments are often immortalized through the commentary that accompanies it. There have been many great commentators during the Premiere League era, like Clive Tyldesley, Andy Gray and others, but I have a special place for Martin Tyler. His football knowledge, unique style and pure emotion strikes a great balance. Tyler has commentated on some of United's greatest moments, and some of these will forever be part of our collective memory. I have compiled below a list of some of these, I hope you find it interesting. Click on each title to view the video, otherwise the commentary is also provided in text format. This is by no means an exhaustive list, just some of the one's I could find easily.

Cantona Scores Against City

"You'll remember, Andy, back in April... the match here, City made a reasonable start then, but very much finished second in the contest, so they wont be taking anything for granted here at this early stage...especially with Cantona aroundddd! Cantona scoresss!"
