A historic rivalry

Barça and Man. United played each other 25 years ago at the Camp Nou, with Barça going on to win

On November 2, 1994, the 'Dream Team' outperformed Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United side at the Camp Nou. A double from Hristo Stoichkov (min 9 and 52) and goals from Romário (min 45) and Ferrer (min 88) ensured a great win for Johan Cruyff's team. The match corresponded to the 4th round of group stage fixtures in the Champions League, and previously, on October 19, the two teams had drawn 2-2 at Old Trafford.

Busquets in goal, Ferrer, Abelardo, Koeman and Sergi in defence; Guardiola, Bakero and Amor in midfield and Jordi Cruyff, Stoichkov and Romário in attack, formed the Blaugrana starting XI that evening. Subs Ivan Iglesias (min 62) and Sánchez Jara (min 72) came on later in the game.

Roy Keane, Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs played for United on the night, with the likes of Gary Neville and David Beckham on the bench.
