This beautiful jersey is reminiscent of that special night in a packed Camp Nou (Barcelona), where Manchester United took on Bayern Munich in the Champions League final. After 6 minutes Basler already made the 0-1 for Bayern, and after 90 minutes the score was unchanged. Manchester made two substitutions, in the 67th and 81st minute Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjær came on. When after 90 minutes the curtain seemed to have come down for United, it was these substitutions that made for one of the most absurd finals ever. In the 91st minute Sheringham equalised and the teams seemed to be heading for penalties. The climax came when Solskjær made it 2-1 in the 93rd minute and helped Manchester United to their 2nd Champions League title in history, one of the clubs highlights.
