Your favourite Heart/City moment at AAMI Park

[Hellenic Hero]

There's been a bit of negativity around lately, so I thought we'd get some positive memories flooding back. So what have been your favourite Heart and City moments at our magical home ground, AAMI Park? (However, you had to have been there to witness it. Not something you watched on TV.)

I'll kick it off with a couple:

Easily my favourite moment in the stands at AAMI. It happened right in front of my end and I was just the right level of drunk. Just perfect.

Erik Paartalu's Derby winner in injury time for a 1-0 win. Magical moment.

[HeartOfCity]

Gotta be the FFA Cup win! What an absolute emotional roller coaster following this club was like until that final whistle! I felt top of the world, clubs first trophy it really was an amazing feeling.

FFA cup win and Engelaar goal come straight to mind

My first bratwurst. 

Followed by my second. 

[HeartLand]

David Williams' goal against Sydney was wild, FFA Cup final and when Orlando Engelaar was subbed on for the first time. When he was subbed on the crowd went nuts and then little Massimo Murdocca went up to him and everyone all at once saw how huge he was everyone went mental.

[Forever City]

The scenes.

 

[Missing_Moy]

The derby when tommy "the wall" Sorensen saved us the game with his 2 hands! 

And there was that goal from the scum that passed the line that was disallowed 😂

Gotta be that David Williams goal. There have been so many big moments in this clubs history at AAMI Park, but as great as winning the cup and Paartalu's goal were, that moment just stands out. The sheer effort of Williams to score that goal and the absolute euphoria afterwards will stay with me as long as I live

[jeffplz]

Heart: flares against Sydney FC, was a 2 or 3-0 loss, it was just so normal at the time. 

 

FFA Cup final, cahills on fire, terrace wilding

 

Our finals exit last season against Perth where we just acknowlegded how badly everything went to shit, and just belted out chants from 5+ years ago

[Shahanga]

They're the big 3 alright:

1. Williams

2. The cup

3. Paartalu 

[Originalmeme]

Night we beat the scum 4-1 (heart days) I believe. Duga scored that BS cross/goal and looked upon the tards and laughed!  Was a wild night, played our hearts out!

[Embee]

1. Cup Final (Tims goal and the post whistle celebrations),

2. Big Eriks goal

3. Willos solo goal

[GreenSeater]

Actually here's another one. The 1-0 win against Gold Coast where Yarraside went mental to We Are Melbourne for 45+ minutes of pure chaos

[Baka1]

 Wild scenes

[RedAndWhitePride]

Getting bit teary seeing some of those Heart vids 😢

[RedAndWhitePride]

Cbf finding a vid for it but that Christmas derby in Heart's second season where Matt Thompson scored a double was epic.

Oooh another one: 

We lost this game but Heart v WSW when Yarraside moved ends and subsequently closer to the RBB (for different reasons). Was fucking chaos as I was seated between Yarraside and RBB and saw the constant back and forth when it happened.

Absolute scenes. ❤️

Can't believe Mooy hitting the crossbar (Coe save) that led to that final corner wasn't on that package. That was a wild night. 

[Falastur]

Got to be the Engelaar half-way line goal for me. Was one of the first Heart games I ever remember seeing, and it definitely stuck in the memory.

I still watch replays to this day and don't understand how i managed to think so much in such a short space of time. from "why aren't you passing to ramsey (lol) to fuck what is he doing to holy shit thats going in to OMG thats in"

I just watch it and hear "OH IT'S ENGELAAR"

[japiedog]

Super Matty Thompson's double was "special"

for pure theatre  and nail biting finish, Big Erik's goal in the 90th minute to win the Derby,

 

[Inferno]

It was 4-0 mate and my favourite too!

[jeffplz]

Fuck i'd convinced myself this was at AAMI but noteworthy nonetheless

[HeartMillsy29]

Harry's goal to make it 4-0 in the last Heart derby for me was almost perfect. FFA Cup and Paartalu also up there. Pretty sure Tando saved two penalties one game as well which was awesome.

[Panionara]

13-14 Season, during that euphoric 5 game winning streak, 1-0 win against Brisbane, at the death Berisha was in on goal, and Kisnorbo made the best game saving tackle I have ever seen in person. You know it's a good tackle when it is celebrated with the ripping of a Flare!

Interesting that many of our "best moments" date from the Heart era.

Are there video highlights of our FFA Cup Final win? We played so well to beat both Victory and Sydney in the Cup last season, but I can't readily find highlights of either match.

Victory Round 2 and Wanderers FFA Cup both last season were our best City perfornances IMO. (Extra mentions to the  streak of games were we scored 4+ goals when we had the holy trinity up front)

I think it's the derby that we ended up losing 3-2, it's the goal when mooy hit that diagonal ball to mauk

Lmao I was in a Corp box right above North Terrace that game. I remember giving them shit hanging halfway out the window when we scored our goals, copped beer being thrown up and all them facing us and losing it. Anywho once they scored the 3rd they went ballistic at us. Security had to come shut our glass window. Fun times. 

[HeartFc]

Early 2015: Pissing at a full urinal shoulder to shoulder without getting stage fright. Mind you I was 3 beers in. 

Good fkn times.
