The 1998–99 UEFA Champions League was the seventh season of the UEFA Champions League
, Europe's premier club football tournament, since it was renamed from the "European Champion Clubs' Cup" or "European Cup". The competition was won by Manchester United
, coming back from a goal down in the last two minutes of injury time to defeat Bayern Munich
2–1 in the final
. Teddy Sheringham
and Ole Gunnar Solskjær
scored United's goals after Bayern had hit the post and the bar.
Manchester United also completed the Treble
, becoming the fourth side in Europe to do so and in the process preventing Bayern Munich from achieving the feat themselves.
The Red Devils won the trophy without losing a single game, despite having competed in a group with Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Brøndby plus two highly-rated Italian clubs in the knock-out stages. However, United became champions with just five wins in total, the lowest number of wins recorded by a champion in the Champions League era to date, though the competition now has an extra round of two games in the knock-out stages.
It was the first time that a team that had not won their domestic league the previous season won the Champions League and it was also the first time that Europe's top honour was won by a team who would not have qualified for the tournament under the old qualification rules (title holder or national league champion).
