THE HISTORICAL TREBLE 99'

The Treble (1998–99)


The 1998–99 season for Manchester United was the most successful season in English club football history as they became the first and only English team to win The Treble — winning the Premiership, FA Cup and UEFA Champions League in the same season.[16] After a very tense Premier League season, Manchester United won the title on the final day beating Tottenham Hotspur 2–1, whilst Arsenal won 1–0 against Aston Villa.[17] Winning the Premiership was the first part of the Treble in place, the one part that manager Alex Ferguson described as the hardest.[17] In the FA Cup Final United faced Newcastle United and won 2–0 with goals from Teddy Sheringham and Paul Scholes.[18] In the final match of that season, the 1999 UEFA Champions League Final they defeated Bayern Munich in what is considered one of the greatest comebacks ever witnessed, losing going into injury time and scoring twice to win 2–1.[16] Ferguson was subsequently knighted for his services to football.[19] Rounding out that record breaking year, Manchester United also won the Intercontinental Cup after beating Palmeiras 1–0 in Tokyo.[20]

A bunch of bouncing Busby Babes

If ever they are playing in your town

You must get to that football ground

Take a lesson come and see

THE RED FLAG

United's flag is deepest red

It shrouded all our Munich dead

Before their limbs grew stiff and cold

Their heart's blood dyed it's ev'ry fold

Then raise United's banner high

Beneath it's shade we'll live and die

So keep the faith and never fear

We'll keep the Red Flag flying here

We'll never die, we'll never die

We'll never die, we'll never die

We'll keep the Red flag flying high

'Cos Man United will never die
