The most important competition of the world and more over a treble day of Manchester United.
1999,the year of treble and the last stumble remaining to be covered.The two silver wares collected and the last grail remaining.A day where you could except the losers to be winners and the winners to lose.But THE DEVILS WERE HELPED OUT.The most stunning,unimaginable,emotional,joyful,different,heart throbbing,inspirational and important game in the History of United matches.The memories that you can never forget and see again anywhere around.
The match was at Nou Camp with more than 90000 maniacs watching the game.You hardly hear anything except roaming and screaming of the fans.The atmosphere like no other and the teams also like other.Manchester were a weaker side compared with Bayern. Giggs and Scholes suffered a man suspensions due to respective Red cards.So lack of players in mid-field.
Manchester had already won the League and the FA cup and This was the last on remaining in their bag.The game starts after a few performances and national anthems.Both teams hand shaking(with no intentions though)and taking their position.Referee blows the whistle and the match starts.The game started on the side of Bayern.Just the game touched the first 5 minutes Basler with a fine free kick guiding the ball to the net.Bayern Munich up by one Goal.All manutd maniacs just petrified.The match seemed more like ended rather than started.Nobody would have thought Manchester to win in their wildest dreams.But If you were a true Manchester you would say lets finish the game and they did.United didn’t lose hope and they tried even more harder.The game was all of tension.The tension was balancing on both the sides.Bayern were more tensed more holding their lead rather than increase it The half ending with Munich’s on lead.But the next half was on United’s side.The attacks and the moves of united were increasing.The crossing were getting more accurate and players running out more.They we running every where on the pitch.The wingers were falling back when ball moved back,the defenders getting front when they attacked.The second half was only Manchester United.They would have hit more shots on target that night compared to any matches.But khan was too stubborn to let the ball pass him.The more united attacked the Munich the more they were exposing themselves.But united had just one thing in mind”Never die”.And thats what kept them going to the last second.Ferguson brought his substitutes in the game.Teddy Sheringham(67 minute) and Solskjaer(81 minutes).The combination was working and they made many moves around striking the ball.Then game moved to 80 minutes and still no goal.But maniacs kept on trying.The game finally moving to extra time.Can any one possibly think of winning when you are 1-0 down?.You can only think for an equilizer rather than winning.3 minutes of added time to settle the match.That was enough for United.On the start of the 90th minute the ball was on united’s half.The game building up and ball was on Munich’s territory until the ball was thrown outside by the defenders.Gary Neville taking the long throw inside the penalty area.The ball again thrown out by the Munich defender and this time for a corner.Schmiechel up in front.Beckham quickly running towards the corner. Just watch the brillance of David Beckham.He takes 5 seconds to actually set himself and hit the ball.The ball moves on the second post , get a touch by Yorke,the Munich player tries to clear but the ball gets to Keane.Keane hits the ball towards Sherigham and Sheringham guides the ball into the net.What a moment!!.The goal was not the most fabulous one but you can never have so much emotion in that goal.Manchester leveled themselves in extra time.Munichs went mad.They couldn’t see where did the ball end up in the goal.But the goal thats all counts.The game started and quickly United gets the ball in possession.Moving quickly the ball is passed to Solskjaer and with a few trickery wins a corner.The same man for the task.This was the last attack that they could do damage .Beckham running towards the corner and again with a very little time he hits the ball into the penalty area.The cross was so inch perfect that Sheringham received directly on his head losing his marker.The ball just bounced on Solskajaer’s leg and striked the ball to the top corner.Oh the goal.The winning goal.The goal came at such a time when referee was about to blow the whistle.United first time up in the game and that also for the last minute and the goal that all mattered the most.United went on celebrating the goal and they finally won the match.Every Manchester fan jumping on their feet.Any heart patient would have been under serious condition if he was watching this match.Schmiechel,the captain was given the trophy.The holy Grail of European football.Every cup an English Team can win was done by Manchester United.
The match you can hardly forget.Many of the great names were there actually to see the game.George Best who was there at the stadium actually left the ground before the 1 half.He MISSED it.The match was the most thrilling one ever.You can’t say any match more suspenseful and live than this match.Now stopping reading this and watch the match.



DAVID BECKHAM and THE GODDESS OF FOOTBALL
Have you ever wondered why David Beckham is so brilliant? How he always lands on his feet? Even the attempts of that sorry, recently departed England manager didn’t do anything much to get our Becks down. Did you see, when he was finally brought on, how he left the world in no doubt that we’d have won if he’d been on at the start with his genius assist? Ever wondered why Becks wore that skirt? Has it ever occured to you that Posh getting back together with the Spice Girls - will actually help David’s LA GAlaxy and Eng-ga-land career - living in LA will take years off him too . . . I happen to know that David Beckham is a follower of The Goddess of Football. Becks is actually HER favourite on planet Earth. Did you know that The Goddess of Football decides who wins? It was SHE who invented the Penalty Shoot Out so she could watch your faces for her amusement . . .
