Saint-Étienne in the 70s: The Eternal Greens
AS Saint-Étienne · années 70 — All teams
In the 1970s, AS Saint-Étienne was the greatest team in France. Four league titles (1970, 1974, 1975, 1976), Coupe de France triumphs, and a mythical European campaign.
In 1976, Robert Herbin's Greens touched the grail: a European Cup final against Bayern Munich in Glasgow. The square posts of Hampden Park said no, but the legend remained intact.
Dominique Rocheteau 'the green angel', captain Jean-Michel Larqué, striker Hervé Revelli, Ivan Ćurković in goal: a golden generation, sung by an entire people, and the symbol of French football.
