York Lose Their Way to Wembley. 1955

York City Lose Their Way to Wembley. By two goals to nil, gallant York were defeated by Newcastle United in the FA Cup semi-final replay at Roker Park, Sunderland. This was the scene in the dying minutes of the game, as Newcastle, desperately holding on to their lead, fought off determined but unavailing York efforts to score.
