Welcome to Hell: Manchester United's 1993 Trip to Galatasaray
"This is Manchester United, The Lost Tapes. Stories from United's rich history, told in a way you've never heard before. In 1993, Manchester United ended the 26 year wait to win a league title. Their reward for that piece of history was to compete in the European Cup, or the Champions League, to give it its new name at the time. United had qualified for the semi finals in each of their five campaigns under Sir Matt Busby, winning it, of course, in 1968. The club's first foray into the tournament in almost a quarter of a century was to end in stunning, controversial fashion, with one of the most memorable ties in the history of the competition. This is Manchester United's Welcome to Hell."
In this episode of Lost Tapes Extra, Ed and Wayne delve into Manchester United's notorious 1993 trip to Galatasaray, famously dubbed 'Welcome to Hell.'
