Episode 62 - Saul's bluff & 1991 European Cup Winners' Cup

This week Dale & Mike discuss Saul Niguez's bluff and Odion Ighalo's loan extension. The game we focus on turns out to be Mark Hughes' most important match ever, as Manchester United won the European Cup Winners Cup against Barcelona's 'Dream Team'. 1991 saw United represent English football clubs in the European CWC for the first time after a 5-year ban saw English clubs excluded from European competition following the Heysel disaster. Hughes, who features in this week's Icons of Old Trafford piece, scored twice in a hard-fought battle with this arguably being Sir Alex Ferguson's most important victory. The Scot was back in terms of European success and United had announced themselves before eventually dominating English football.
