FC Porto has not replaced their 'astute manager,' and has failed to reach those heights since.  2003: AC Milan ‘Character’ AC Milan and Juventus contested perhaps the most disappointing European Cup final in recent memory. The game at Old Trafford saw the woodwork struck twice and a disallowed goal during the 120 minutes.

The ‘character’ referred to in this case was that of Milan’s Andriy Shevchenko. It was to be his goal which was disallowed as the referee judged that Manuel Rui Costa was in an offside position blocking Juventus goalkeeper Gigi Buffon’s view, replays suggested he wasn’t. More poignantly, it was a year to the day since Valery Lobanovsky had died, Shevchenko’s former coach at Dinamo Kiev. A clearly emotional Shevchenko went on to score the winning penalty and dedicated the win to a man he says he owes his career to.It was Milan’s sixth European Cup triumph. Shevchenko showed his ‘character’ by flying the next day to Ukraine and lay his winners medal on the grave of his former mentor.  2002: Real Madrid ‘Genius’ Genius is often a word which is over used in football as the phrase ‘a goal fit to win any game’.

This accusation cannot be applied to Zinedine Zidane’s 45th-minute goal in the final in Glasgow in 2002. The game was level after two soft goals and Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid looked to be heading at stalemate. Zidane had other ideas, and struck with his left foot at a cross on the volley from 17 yards, scoring the goal of the tournament and perhaps of any tournament. At £47m, one could argue that such brilliance is to be expected, but his price represented how good he was, how desperate Juventus wanted to keep him, how desperate Real Madrid wanted him, and how far away anyone else in football was to his ability. In the days after his goal many inside the Real Madrid hierarchy responded to those who had criticised the fee paid for the French genius Zidane with a ‘that’s why we paid it’ and no one has questioned his fee since.  2001: Bayern Munich ‘Redemption’ A thesaurus places the words salvation, deliverance, release, and recovery next to the word redemption. Ask any of the eight Bayern Munich players who were survivors of the 1999 final and went on to win it in 2001 how they felt, and they would use these words. Perhaps the agony felt by the Munich players who dominated Manchester United but lost was best summed up by Samuel Kuffour, who beat his fists on to the turf in sheer frustration and disbelief at conceding two late goals.
