Bert Trautmann, one of the greatest Manchester City goalkeepers of all time, has passed away aged 89. The former German paratrooper famously played on for the last 17 minutes with a broken neck in City’s 1956 FA Cup triumph after bravely diving at the feet of Birmingham City forward Peter Murphy after he broke through as City led 3-1.
The official Manchester CIty website has a full obituary.
