Have You Seen These Three Memorable UEFA Champions League Matches?

The line-up of the teams, the chant of the crowds, the blow of the whistle, the pass of the ball, and the ecstasy of the goal; football is not a sport anymore. For many, it has transcended sport and entered the realm of gods and goddesses. And unlike the others, this one has no haters.

If football is indeed a deity, then heaven is the UEFA Champions League. The place where the best European football clubs face off against each other to become the best on the continent. 

No other match illustrates the ‘never give up’ attitude of Manchester United and Fergie time better than this. Bayern’s Mario Basler scored in the first half but in came substitutes Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjær to score in stoppage time and give United the victory. The first English club to win the treble and Alex Ferguson was knighted.

What do you do when you are four goals behind from the first leg and need to score four or more to win? Well, for Barcelona, it meant to bring out the goods and they did big time. Even though PSG scored one during the match making the hosts having to score five or more to win; Barcelona scored six goals making it one of football’s most memorable nights. The scorecard read:

• Luis Suarez 3
• Layvin Kurzawa 41 o.g.
• Lionel Messi 50 Pen
• Junior Neymar 88
• Junior Neymar 90 +0:18 Pen
• Carnicer Sergi Roberto 90 +4:53
