Manchester United (coach Alex Ferguson):
Bayern Munich (coach Ottmar Hitzfeld):
Bayern Munich led United for much of the game after an early Mario Basler free kick, and controlled most of the match, but Manchester United sensationally turned the game around in stoppage time at the end of the tie. Inside 90 seconds, goals from Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer transformed what was an efficient performance from the Bayern Munich players into a heart-breaking night for the tearful Samuel Kuffour and his Bayern team-mates.
