You missed out manchester utd 7 roma 1

That was pretty incredible, but I wouldn't rate it in my top 10. Just wasn't competitve enough.

What about the 1st Manchester United-Milan game last season?

[JogaWestHam]

Nobodys mentioned Manchester United 4-3 Real Madrid (2003)

Yeah, but that game was pretty meaningless after Ronaldo scored his hattrick.

[Teso Dos Bichos]

Should it not be included because of the hattrick?

[frasermc]

any celtic match where we haven't actually been beaten away from home in the champions league group or knockout stages.

so that would be..


barcelona 1 v 1 celtic nov 2004

Are serious about number 3? that was one of the most boring CL games ever! I dont really agree with 5 and 6 either. Even though they were good perfomances those games were dead by the hour mark, you knew who was going to win. Number 4 wasnt a particularly brilliant match either.

[prymetyme]

Yeah, but that game was pretty meaningless after Ronaldo scored his hattrick.

perhaps it was meaningless for Man Utd's hopes for moving on in Europe, but none the less it was a great match.

[frasermc]

PSV 3 - 1 milan may 2005

celtic 2 - 0 lyon september 2003 (purely because i believe it to be our finest 90 mins in CL football so far)

chelsea 4 - 2 barcelona march 2005

bayern munich 2 - 1 real madrid may 2001

manchester utd 2 v 1 bayern munich may 1999

barcelona 3 v 3 manchester utd november 1998

If that's the case, then why don't we start listing the top 10 friendlies of all time?

[Piperc]

What about the 1st Manchester United-Milan game last season?

When Brocchi lost that ball (Rooney goal) I've almost destroyed my tv :cool:

by the way that was a great match, and if the final result were 2-2 that match would have been included in the top 10

(remember that i'm a milan fan :D)

[Teso Dos Bichos]

If that's the case, then why don't we start listing the top 10 friendlies of all time?

According to you logic we can discount most of the great games of all time then... :rolleyes:

[prymetyme]

If that's the case, then why don't we start listing the top 10 friendlies of all time?

So every match that a team who was mid league all season (like Villa) are incapable of putting on a good match? :rolleyes:

[German Ham]

No Bayern over Valencia in penalties from the 2001 Champion's League final? A very good final, one of the better CL finals in recent times. Oliver Kahn was outstanding.

[Wastl]

Liverpool's win over Milan on penalties in the 2005 final was a great game. Not the most beautiful, but definately very entertaining.

Bayern losing against ManU in 1999 was rather painful. The ending was spectacular, though I can't say that I'm too thrilled with the outcome.

The best CL game I have seen so far, was Hamburg's 4-4 tie against Juventus in 2000. Till this point it's still my favorite game of all time, though I would have liked it even more if it weren't for Juve's last minute penalty goal.

[JogaWestHam]

So every match that a team who was mid league all season (like Villa) are incapable of putting on a good match? :rolleyes:

Look, clearly this is a matter of personal taste. I agree it was a good exhibition, but the tie as a WHOLE was over somewhere around half-time. A lot of what made that game so entertaining occurred in the second half, when Man U really had nothing to play for anymore. Therefore, it was little more than a glorified friendly near the end. Man U was not going to advance, but they put on a good show anyway. If Ronaldo's goals had come, say, deep into the second, half, then there would've been plenty of suspense-- as it was, that game really had no suspense. I guess you prefer differently, that's fine.

As for your "Villa" comment, that would all depend on how important a match it was. If something's going to make my top 10 list, it has to be aesthetically-pleasing and important. That's why many of the World Cup finals end up near the top of any "greatest games" list.

According to you logic we can discount most of the great games of all time then... :rolleyes:

Not quite sure how you made the jump from A to C there. I suggest you'd better check your logic. :confused:
