[QUOTE="The Feedster, post: 431258, member: 259515"] [b]From the BBC News Desk[/b] Sunderland legend Ian Porterfield, who scored the winner in the 1973 FA Cup final against Leeds, dies. Porterfield, who scored the Black Cats' winning goal against Leeds United in the 1973 FA Cup final, had been suffering from cancer. Born in Dunfermline, Porterfield also enjoyed a successful management career with Rotherham, Sheffield United, Aberdeen, Reading and Chelsea. He went on to coach in Korea and took charge of several national teams, and his final job was as boss of Armenia. Porterfield was in charge of Armenia for their superb 1-1 draw against Portugal in Yerevan on 22 August which left Luiz Felipe Scolari's superstars facing a fight to qualify for the European Championship finals in Austria and Switzerland next summer.
