1997 Barcelona (h)

3-2 (2-0)

Champions League

Asprilla(22pen,30,48)

Luis Enrique(72), Figo(88)

35,274

To see Keith Gillespie scamper down the right and cross perfectly for Tino to complete his hat trick was more than even the most optimistic soul dare predict.

 

The Catalans were simply overwhelmed by a magnificent effort from the team and delirious supporters and even late goals from Enrique and Figo couldn't tarnish the occasion.

 

Unfortunately, reality intervened and by the return game in Spain, with our attractive play replaced by a staggeringly negative approach due to a team lacking quality attackers, confidence or seemingly, motivation.
