00:00 and we were playing against Bayern Munich and we were a goal down with two minutes to go
00:05 and I thought if we can just get the ball into the box, you know you can call it blind faith
00:11 what you want, but I thought if we can just get the ball in the box and we can get a goal it'll
00:15 give us that little bit of extra time we'll win this still. I was convinced that we could win
00:19 and then the ball came across and because it was two minutes from the end Peter Schmeichel
00:26 the goalkeeper came up and I don't know what it is about the Germans you know they could be very
00:31 orderly and disciplined but it threw them completely you know they had all the plans
00:36 for who they were going to mark but suddenly this great big blonde goalkeeper this Dane came up and
00:40 it threw them completely and suddenly for the first time there was a bit of disarray in their
00:46 defence and the ball fell to Ryan Giggs who hit the ball into the box, Dwight York first hit the
00:52 ball into the box, four of their defenders had gone with Peter Schmeichel and then the ball fell
00:59 to Terry Sherringham and he didn't hit it well but he hit it goalwards and then you see the back of
01:06 the net and they just and I'm up and I can't remember, I can't remember really I remember
01:12 apologising to some people in front of me for jumping over them, very important FIFA officials
01:16 as well and then I sat back and I tried to keep myself cool and but while I was actually thinking
01:25 keep cool, keep cool we went and we got a corner David Beckham knocks the ball across,
01:30 Terry Sherringham helps it on and Gunnar Solskjaer knocks the ball into the net and as the ball
01:38 hits the net for me it was as all the world stood still I thought this is what paradise is all about
01:46 it's got to be and I honestly do not remember what I did for about five minutes, I went up to my wife
01:53 and my daughter and my son-in-law were up there I dashed up to them I dashed back and suddenly
02:00 the world was great again and then I thought well this there is nothing ever going to be better than this.
