On this day in 1974 Denis Law played his last competitive game in England (Yes, that’s right!). People often incorrectly claim his last domestic game was for MCFC v MUFC at the end of the 1973-74 (the myth being that he was so distraught at scoring v Utd that he retired immediately - he didn’t!). Law started the 1974-75 season and retired shortly after MCFC signed Asa Hartford. His last appearance was in the Texaco Cup (classed as a first team competition at the time). Coincidentally this was also Francis Lee’s last game for City (and his last goal). For this and more see https://bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/History/Matches/Match.aspx…
