Image:Solskjaer goal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Why the table is incomplete ? are you shying to show who better played in that match ?-- Max Mayr 09:27, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
I mean, seriously. For one thing, quotes from a commentator, no matter how much Man United fans like them, have no place here. The injury time section, in particular, is both a huge send-up of Man Utd and disrespectful to Bayern. This really, really needs to be cleaned up by someone who is a fan of neither team.

rubbish. read the 2005 article. sounds like a love letter to Rafa. 81.96.242.64 ( talk) 00:09, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
This article is very biased indeed...but I love it. Leemorrison ( talk) 22:59, 21 March 2010 (UTC)
I support Man Utd so this was an amazing occurence for me. This does sound a bit like it's written by a mad man u fan talking to their mates to some degree. I do think in describing things that happened in the game it's fair enough. Also saying about the 'can man utd score they always score' is fair enough as it's become famous. What I don't like is the 'what must lothar matthaus be thinking, with the deepest respect who cares'. That's something me and my man utd supporting mates quote and laugh about together but probably doesnt have a place in this and is somewhat disrespectful. I'm not sure also about him saying after the game 'the best team didnt win but the luckiest' . I remember something more like that 'Bayern munich had controlled the entire game' (which wasn't true either). Putting either of these in doesnt look good. Why don't you put in something like that although Bayern did play well and on a par with man utd for much of the game Franz Beckenbauer their presisent very sportingly said how Man Utd deserved their victory. I'm pretty sure that's the case (quoting Alex Fergusons autobiography there). I think he actually said that he thought Man Utd had played the more positive football (again Alex ferguson's book). Whether you agree or disagree with that (I actually thought it was an even match with both teams not playing great) it seems like a better ending and encompassing the good of the game for everyone. Also like the comments above here say sighting a bit more from the other side and how it was recieved etc. All a bit too english really.Also it starts out by saying utd scored 2 goals in the last minute in injury time. that doesnt make sense. they scored two goals in injury time. that's it.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.239.239.153 ( talk) 13:52, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
The article includes the "old chestnut" that Manchester United won the first English treble. This of course is not true. See the Wiki page "Treble (association football)" which defines the treble, and shows Liverpool's treble in 1984 in the table of treble winners. (Yes I am a Liverpool fan but I also love Manchester United. I have to because I married a Man U fan and all my children are Man U fans!) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Onehung ( talk • contribs) 07:15, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
Celtic won the league trophy, the SFA cup, the league cup, and the european cup in 1967. They were therefore not the first team to win this treble. I am editing the article accordingly. — Preceding

Do we know what colour they were? The ribbons are usually in the club colours, even if a change kit was worn (1994, 1995, 2000, 2003, 2007; 1996 featured both teams' colours), so chances are the trophy would have ultimately been dressed in red and white ones regardless. 86.8.146.245 ( talk) 15:06, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Suspension aside, was he an injury doubt for the game? Being taken off in the FA Cup final and missing the start of next season. VEO one five 00:37, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
This section doesn't make sense - in the First half it lists "Shots on Goal" and "Wide Shots", but the 2nd half lists "Total Shots" and "Shots on Target". The overall uses the same, but uses the figures for the 1st half to make up the totals, laving it with the stupid thing of Bayern having 7 shots, 8 of which were on target. 86.186.85.154 ( talk) 16:42, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguations: No links found.
Linkrot: No linkrot found in this article.
Update: The wording is misleading, thought if anyone who is autopatrolled can edit, but doesn't look to be the case. I won't be editing due to lack of credentials, if someone else can edit it that would be awesome. Quidster4040 ( talk) 19:08, 12 December 2016 (UTC)
Second update: will be reviewing momentarily. Just found out I can continue reviewing the article. Quidster4040 ( talk) 20:43, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
Before this can meet GA, there are a few paragraphs that need to be cited. This article is very well-written otherwise, so once these missing citations are addressed, I will be willing to promote this article for GA! Quidster4040 ( talk) 17:13, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
PeeJay2K3, Quidster4040, where does this review stand? It's been 19 days since the above, and nothing appears to have been done despite plenty of Wikipedia activity elsewhere. Can we expect some progress soon? BlueMoonset ( talk) 22:30, 16 January 2017 (UTC)

Should a new section be added to the article about this game?--- Managerarc™ talk 11:22, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
Please notice that Lothar Matthaus did not play as a sweeper in this game. Clearly not. He played defensive midfielder of a 433, in the "anchor man" role. You can rewatch the game. Its a central defence of 2 players, Linke and Kuffour. Matthaus play front of those two guys. Sometimes, he come behind, between Linke and Kuffour, in United long balls, but otherwise, he clearly play number 6 behind Jeremies and Effenberg. When Bayern have the ball, yes, Matthaus go back and lead the game, a couple of times, but its exactly what a number 6 could do sometimes nowdays. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A01:E35:2FB9:2660:70B6:7BC2:6E09:40E3 ( talk) 15:20, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
