On April 29, 1970, Manchester City's players lifted the European Cup Winners' Cup trophy into the dark, wet Austrian sky. This was the first European trophy in the club's history.
Joe Mercer's City had shown strength, quality and determination to win a bruising encounter against Polish outfit Górnik Zabrze.
The team of the late 1960s, including Colin Bell, Francis Lee, Tony Book, and Mike Summerbee, are still considered legends to this day, even if they never quite hit the world-beating heights of Pep Guardiola's side.
The current crop of Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League winners last season might be the greatest City team, and they have the historic Treble and now Club World Cup to prove it, but the class of '70 were the first City side to win a European trophy.
