Remembering 1999
United’s record against German giants Bayern Munich reads seven competitive matches played and one victory. But what a match that was. United’s 2-1 win in Barcelona’s Nou Camp stadium 11 years ago still ranks among the greatest highlights in the history of the club. Tonight’s fixture cannot compete but this should put you in the mood…
Mario Basler scores in the 6th minute to give Bayern the lead
Teddy Sherringham scores in the 90th minute
The iconic moment as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer scores United's winner
Bayern Munich's players collapse as the final whistle goes
'Superstar' David May celebrates United's victory
Dwight Yorke and Andy Cole celebrate
United's players and fans celebrate on the streets on Manchester
And in case that isn’t enough for you, enjoy the highlights all over again ….

I know this is slightly eeeevil of me, but one of my fondest memories of that night is Samuel Kuffour crying at the end of the game.
Thank you for reminding, Ed!
This match made the German side legends too.
Noticed it just now – their goal was rehearsed, the way Babbel turned and ran to give the way to the ball.
still gives me goose bumps all these years later even though I know the result……amazing!!
