There have been so many, but I was wondering if we could maybe even have a poll on these ones @moderators?

Manchester United 3 goals in 7 minutes v Lyon

Troy Deeney last minute winner to put Watford into the play-off final

Sergi Roberto against psg 6-1 game

1999 Solskjaer


I can't really think of anything historically that comes close to these, maybe the 4-3 liverpool newcastle game?

Can't really look past the Aguero moment. Twat.
 
Nowhere near the stakes but in 2010 Lecce almost won the game against Napoli in the 92nd minute but the ball was cleared off the line, Napoli broke and scored the only goal of the game with a 25 yard effort from Cavani. It's worth a mention for the commentator alone
 
Nothing comes close to 1999 for me. Still gives me shivers.
This.
In those days there was no 10 min injury time added on. It was basically 2 goals in the last min of the game. It was the last minute of the biggest club game in the World.
 
Aguero moment is overblown anyway. They were playing QPR and they almost threw it away against a trash side with 10 men for most of the second half. It would have been embarrassing if they hadn’t won it at that stage.

The fact it took so long for a side, so expensively put together that it broke the rules, to put away such a shit team with 10 men is the real story. 100 second away from being a massive bottle.

The real story is that Ferguson rose again and demolished the cheats in the very next season.

Bit of irony to that to be fair
 
Now we have VAR it must only be a matter of time until it becomes involved in a huge game after the final whistle.

Something like when Bruno scored a pen v Brighton about 5 years ago.

I've seen an incident in Germany (I think) where a ref denied a pen, the other team went up the other end and scored and then VAR gave the pen, chalking off the goal. Imagine that as the last action of a Champions League or World Cup final. Would cause riots!

An awful United playing one of the top French sides in Europe is a bit different to be fair. And, yeah, if they had gone out, it would have been embarrassing too.

City had a ridiculous team, and couldn’t break down a 10 man QPR for a good 40 minutes.
 
Feck I can't find the video anymore

@carvajal do you have the video of Rodrygo's goals vs city taken from the stadium????
 
The one we were on the receiving end of at Stamford Bridge last season was absolutely ludicrous. Palmer scoring in the 100th and 101st minute.

One of the most shell-shocked I've ever been at full time.
 
That Watford v’s Leicester playoff semi final in 2013 has to be right up there. Total carnage and swing of emotions for both teams all in a few seconds!
 
Solksjaer in 99 and it's not even close to anything else in last 30 years in football when it comes to extra time.

Most of my mates who don't even support United still mention it from time to time. I don't thinky anyone actually mentioned Aguero moment here year after that.
 
among usual shouts, Schalke being Bundesliga champions until Bayern's goal in the last seconds of their game vs... someone.

Schalke supporters already stormed the pitch and Bayern game was actuallly on the screen in their stadium :lol: and then :eek:
 
Special note for Rashford’s last minute winner against West Ham a few years ago, as I was sat behind the goal when it went in
 
-Man Utd vs Aston Villa in 2009. We were in a title race with Liverpool and it was 1:1 and in the dying moments of the game a relatively unknown player called Federico Macheda scored for us and we won the game to extend the lead at the table. Then, in the next game against Sunderland he scored again for a scrappy 1:0 win. After that he pretty much disappeared but he remained a cult hero for all Man Utd fans.
- 2014 UCL final when Ramos scored in the stoppage time for Real Madrid against Atletico to equalize. After that goal, in extra time Madrid destroyed Atletico and they scored 3 more goals. Atletico was seconds away from winning their first UCL title.
- Man City vs QPR in 2012- Dzeko and Aguero goals for Man City in the stoppage time to secure their first EPL title in history. That was completely bonkers and the best ever EPL moment. It was heartbreaking for all Man Utd fans and I still can't get over that moment when Aguero scored...
- 1999 UCL final- It looked like Bayern would win that game and Man Utd fans pretty much lost all hope. Then in the stoppage time, Man Utd scored 2 goals from set pieces and it was one of the most unbelievable comebacks in football history.
- Man Utd vs Porto in 2004- Man Utd was ahead in aggregate score against Porto and we conceded the goal from the set piece in the last minute of the game. That was bonkers because we would have an easy draw and certainly win the UCL that year. We were also robbed in that game and Scholes' goal was regular and onside. It was so obvious, yet the ref ruled that goal as an offside. Ridiculous...

The last one still bothers me. That game also paved the way to mourinho and everything I hate about modern football
 
The final minute of the Italy and England World Cup qualifier in 1997:

 
Owen vs city, last minute.
Ah shit yeah, this for me as I was there. Talk about pure rollercoaster, always feel sorry for people who leave games like that early, and thousands did when Bellamy scored his second. Could see a load leaving when Lyon scored their second too. What’s point?

Slight correction here as we won that game 3-2. Ronaldo scored a brace.

Still remember the RAWK goes into meltdown posts on here afterwards :lol:
 
Discounting United games where bias plays a part, the Deeney one is the one I always enjoy watching back just for the sheer chaos
 
Whats strange about the one that always springs to mind for me is that had I not been there on a work trip at the time it would probably have been unknown to me:

Last round of Urvalsdeild (Icelandic top Division) in 2014. FH v Stjarnan. Both teams undefeated going into the final round, but Stjarnan two points behind. From memory the game had red for both teams, goal line clearances, dodgy referering, and a crazy amount of chances both ways really.

How it ended? It's 1-1 when Stjarnan is given a penalty 3 minutes into overtime, they score and win their first and still their only league title. Had it not been for that penalty there would have been two undefeated teams in the same season (other fixture ended in a draw), would have probably been just as crazy, doubt that has happened before?

Only found this,I don't know which you mean. Good choice. The last minutes with the "6 minutes extra time " are awesome.
Then I will choose a classic:

The most bonker ending would have to be our winner against Brighton in 2020. We scored the winner AFTER the referee's fulltime whistle. You can't write that stuff up.

In addition, QPR did all they could to lose that match. That also takes some of the sensation away.

Michael bloody Owen scoring the winner against City in like the 7th of 5 minutes stoppage time.
