Great memories
My first European game.
Bossed Bayern for 89 minutes and lost an equaliser to a shabby deflection.
Charbonniers despairing attempt to save it is etched in my mind.
As did I. I've edited my post as I've now watched the video. It's just the goals basically. Gives you no insight into how much we battered a Bayern side littered with top class players, many of whom had played in the previous CL final just months earlier.Was a cruel end to that game and for him, liked Charbonnier as a keeper

Cannot believe we only scored 1 goal against them over the 2 games
Always a what if that game mateCulminating in that sickener of an injury for Mols too. Such a bizarre season in that regard for both us and that lot in Europe that year, Larsson broke his leg the week before - both centre forwards out for the year
Same for me.My first European game.
Bossed Bayern for 89 minutes and lost an equaliser to a shabby deflection. That video obviously gives you no idea of just how dominant we were that night.

I left the ground raging at Charbonnier. It was only until I saw the game again that I noticed the deflection.My first European game.

We played Bayern off the pitch in both games. Soft free kicks in both games (second being a penalty) compounded our inability to kill them off with the chances we created.Played brilliant. Bayern never had us under pressure at any time, they had just lost the Final in injury time a couple months previous.
The decision for the free kick was ridiculous where the Bayern player deliberately made contact with Numan going away from the ball to cause the contact.
Always a what if that game mate
may not have won it but could have gone to the quarters or semis with a bit luck
Klos got injured in the home leg against Parma. Played the second half in bottoms to hide the strapping on his knee.I had forgotten it was Charbonnier in goal.
When did Klos get injured?

We then had to sign Thomas Myhre after Charbonnier got injured.
agreed, it is hard to show much when you can only post 2 min videos, but we had some good chances and their 18 year old keeper had a fine match unfortunatelyAs did I.

His debut that night for them IIRCagreed, it is hard to show much when you can only post 2 min videos, but we had some good chances and their 18 year old keeper had a fine match unfortunately
Niemi was on the bench.Wasn't long after Niemi had went to Hearts as well, bad timing
Apologies if it sounded like a criticism. I appreciate the limitations.agreed, it is hard to show much when you can only post 2 min videos, but we had some good chances and their 18 year old keeper had a fine match unfortunately
Yep, a soft free kick for the kind of nothing offences’ that they had been playing for and getting all night.Was spewing at that FK
And bear in mind that includes him getting sent off in Graz after the ref told him to come back on the field.ive never seen numan as angry as he was when the ref awarded them the free kick at Ibrox.
IIrC was this game not featured in the playstation game the following season on a loading screen?
Niemi was on the bench.

I still get angry when I think of it now. We absolutely deserved to win both games v Bayern and ended up with a single point.
No justice whatsoever.
There was a stramash outside the Rangers penalty box before that free kickOld Archie "Shar-bon-yay", up there with "Darky-vill".
Should start a thread on Archie pronunciations

That was a weird one. We actually got Myhre in November and Niemi was still there. He didn't go to Hearts until the end of the calendar year.Yes I know v Bayern at home - but he was out on loan when Klos & Charbonnier were both injured and we had to sign Mhyre (loan) from Everton as cover near Xmas
That was a weird one. We actually got Myhre in November and Niemi was still there. He didn't go to Hearts until the end of the calendar year.
Klos came back in October, but got reinjured in mid-November, when we signed Myhre. I think Advocaat just didn't trust Niemi, although the Myhre signing was a mess, since we lost 3 of his 6 games.
Tbf, the bayern keeper in germany really was the difference that night. His saves were ridiculous.We played Bayern off the pitch in both games. Soft free kicks in both games (second being a penalty) compounded our inability to kill them off with the chances we created.

Without a doubt. Broke my heart so much that night, I wanted the 617 squadron recalled and airborne at the full time whistle.Oliver Kahn. The most German looking German since Rudi Völler
Was only a wean myself when there games were played. Absolutely top class side we had then. Really should have made more in Europe.Without a doubt. Broke my heart so much that night, I wanted the 617 squadron recalled and airborne at the full time whistle.
The one from rod wallace tipped it onto the bar iircTbf, the bayern keeper in germany really was the difference that night. His saves were ridiculous.
