Jim McCalliog and David Ford scored the Owls' goals. Temple's winner came after an unfortunate slip by Gerry Young, when the ball squirmed under his foot, and Temple was able to run clear and slot the ball past goalkeeper Ron Springett into the corner. Everton became only the second side, after Blackpool in 1953, to come from two goals behind to win the cup without needing extra time, a feat which has not been repeated since. John Lennon and Paul McCartney of The Beatles attended the match. Everton fan Eddie Cavanagh invaded the playing area and was pursued across the pitch by a policeman.https://www.theguardian.com/observer/osm/story/0,,1337355,00.html The 30 most outrageous sporting moments, part 3 | Sport The Observer This result meant the FA Cup was taken back to Goodison Park for the third time and the first time for 33 years, since the team that included Dixie Dean won it in 1933.
