99 Champions League Final, Last 3 minutes - unaired footage

As a player how could u possibly play the last minute or so there. I never saw a ref have to basically ask them to play it out. Collina genuinely felt for them.
That must be the worst feeling ever
 
Best feeling I have ever had in a game of football. Missed the second goal was to busy going crazy over the first even when I saw it I thought I was watching the first goal again. Crazy night. Back then it was a lot harder for us to win the CL league the feeling to have done it after so many years.....wow
 
I was still caught up with the 1st goal and for some reason the 2nd felt like a replay for a moment. And it could have been, if someone had asked me what either goal was like at that moment I wouldnt have had a clue such was the madness I was experiencing and the crazyness of the pub I was in.
 
It's tough to be a United fan - goosebumps, tears and emotion etc!!

Never seen this footage before! Great posting and thanks!!!!!
 
Truly magical. I think every United fan will remember those three minutes in the greatest of detail for the rest of their lives. I could watch it over and over for months on end.

But cannot imagine how bad the Bayern players felt. Ouch.

I would love it for United to win it once with a big scoreline. Would be blissful.

It would be extremely gratifying and enjoyable but nothing beats the high of a close win to be honest. The wins we remember most and the ones that gave us the biggest rush were the likes of the 4-3 against City, 3-2 against Villa, CL finals (08 and 99).
 
I still remember it like it were yesterday. Moscow was amazing, truly amazing but this here was just something else. We were supposed to be dead and buried, our Treble dreams up in smoke, one hurdle too far. Then the 3 minutes were put up and suddenly you knew that if we had one chance, we could do it and that would give us at least extra time. I remember when the 3 minutes were announced, my Dad just put his hand on my shoulder and said it was all over. I said it wasn't over, that we had 3 minutes and that we could do it. I said to think back over the season, and the countless times we refused to lie down and die.

Teddy got the goal, and we went crazy in our house. We were just happy we had an extra 30 minutes to try and get a winner, little did we know that just as we were sitting back down after the first goal, up pops Solskjaer to poke home the winner.

I remember every detail about those 3 minutes, right down to the commentary. It's engraved on my memory and it'll never leave as long as I live.
 
we are united... and we'll show who we are on Sunday...
 
I had nasty carpet burns on my knees after this game. Was going mental after the goals and tried to copy Ole's knee slide, I did mine on carpet though, ouch.
 
Phil Neville's celebration at the second goal! :lol: Reminds me of his brother Gary against Liverpool.
 
Phil Neville haha.. what a vid, so touching to see Collina trying to get the Bayern players on their feet. By the way does anyone know how to go about downloading the full match on the net..
 
The image of the Bayern players flat on the floor after that second goal is amazing. It's like a bomb site. Every time I watch this video, it sends a shiver down my spine. What a night.
 
I was in a section of the ground with a mix of fans. A german in front of me thought the last few minutes would be a good time to turn around and stand there goading me and my mate. 3 mins later he was exactly like the bayern players. Greatest night of my life
 
Aswell as the stadium clock stopping after the 45 min mark, the three minutes going up on the board and then the absolute pandemonium of the two goals, I still recall whilst everyone continued celebrating, the Bayern fans were still sat in their seats , not really filing out at all..............

happy memories.......

Another reason Becks is a legend, he drove us on in the last ten minutes of that match, the boy was EVERYWHERE! He was simple sensational that season.

agreed. he was sprinting to take corners and literally busted a gut chasing everything towards the end of that game. he hadnt played particularly well during the game but he just refused to be beaten.

one other thing.... does anyone still worry about a flag being raised every time they watch that?

years later I think I can finally watch Teddy scoring without thinking the camera is going to cut to the linesman
