Man Utd v Galatasaray
Group A, Tuesday, 8pm
IT is 30 years since Manchester United were welcomed to hell.
The tale of how the club's first venture into the Champions League ended in a shock elimination to Galatasaray on away goals is one of pure intimidation.
Sir Alex Ferguson described the second leg in Istanbul as being "exposed to as much hostility and harassment as I have ever known on a football expedition".
From the moment United's squad were greeted at the airport by thousands of manic Galatasaray fans some of them waving banners that read 'Welcome to Hell' Ferguson and his players were threatened and abused. Even the Turkish police played their part. Playmaker Eric Cantona was attacked by one officer after being sent off for allowing his frustration to explode at the end of the goalless draw that sent United crashing out.
