Schmeichel & Kahn: On the '99 Champions League Final (Part One) 

I love how a lot of older foreign players when referring to United in their native language just say "Manchester". Just a small thing, but it makes me smile.

Kahn looks more 'human' here... When he played, he was such a beast

Love the way Oliver Kahn speaks. Sounds like a refined Arnold Schwarzenegger!

That's a pair of Alphas right there. Two toughest goalkeepers you'll ever see.

two of the most feared keepers to ever to grace a football pitch

2 legendary Goalkeepers !!! Of this generation of goalkeepers only Buffon can stand up to their level .

Khan seems super chill here, he was nuts as a player.

Two words for this video : Class and Legends

Kahn probably still feeling guilty after shooting that kid in Breaking Bad just when they thought the train robbery had gone off without a hitch.

Dolph Lundgren and Matt Damon

I love how Kahn seamlessly changes between English and German. :D Anyway, I look forward to watching the rest of this interview, both are legends of the game and I like how this interview seems more like a conversation between two friends than anything more formal.

Oliver Kahn was a madman but also a majestic keeper and the sole reason that Germany reached the WC final..And Schmeichel is just the best keeper the Prem has ever seen

Nice one getting this interview sorted! Looking forward to more including the one we're posting later!

These two Legends are the reason why I love playing as a Goalie.

The world don't see this kind of goalkeeper anymore. Oliver n Peter were so terrified... These two are legendary, they both achieved almost everything in their careers. Respect

Oliver Kahn - the new Terminator? : ) Schmeichel's accent - WOW.

Collina is such a legend, being not only an outstanding referee with unmatched presence on the field but also an awesome character for motivating the already resigned Bayern players, that the match is still not over. What a class act he was...

Two legends. Germanic people ❤️

2 amazing keepers. Great seeing them together.

These guys were mad dogs on the field . Off the pitch they're like the chill uncle who takes you for your first beer.

For me, these are the two greatest keepers ever right here. My absolute favourites. If I was making a dream team, these are the keepers I would want on it, bar none.

Keane and Scholes both suspended for that game ripped the heart out of central midfield. We road our luck to be fair but in the end it was what Fergie built into his sides that got them through. Shear determination and willpower to never give in. I was behind the Bayern net in the 2nd half and it's a night I'll never forget.

I remember watching this game with my dad, he was so angry that united won, haha. My dads favourite keeper was Kahn and mine was Schmeichel.

Why am I just now seeing this? My two favorite keepers ever, but especially in the late 90s/early 2000s. My biggest influences as a young keeper and my favorite champions league match to this day.

Amazing!.. I remember this final vividly. Still so difficult to watch it again.. just the way Bayern lost the game. Man United had a great season over all, so they deserved to win, regardless of their performance in that game.

two goalkeeping legends. incredible to watch this

When i see both them is like im come back in time

2 legends kahn still looks scary

Everyone remembers where they were, on that magical night.

Man,first time ever am seeing kahn laugh!never thought he was capable of that!....in my random thoughts,i sometimes think kahn would've made a good Gestapo officer...*i will see myself out now*

grew up as a young goalkeeper inspired by these two. Legends!

two legends!

Best goalkeepers ever

I love when they talks. This two legendary beasty goalkeepers is my fave. Buffon, u just one more step more to leveling them.

They both are best goal keeper ever and the legends too

Two legends

Two of the best i ve ever seen!

Oliver khan was a scary ass dude back in the day...and a very good goalkeeper...an asset to German football

Kahn can play Arnie's role in Terminator. He looks so menacing.

2 legends

THIS IS GOLD!

Wow!!!! The two Legends...you can feel

How I wish I could go back to 1999

I love these legends

Humble Legends!!!

This could go down as the best game but i recognise there are other games and more to come but what can be said with all certainty is the man, Pierluigi Collina, adored!! Mins 2:08, when Peter points out. Just swells my heart up. Love the man, Love football!

Two legends!

Two legends ❤️❤️❤️

Love this. More if it please

Childhood legends :D

respect legends!

I vividly remember this match. I was a teenager when we won the treble. It was *mental* - more emotion in a few minutes than I'd ever felt before. And contrary to everyone else, I didn't feel like we 'always had a chance'. Bayern were an awful, dismal, boring team that season under Hitzfeld: horribly defensive, incredibly boring and dull, with a handful of half-decent players and mostly built on physicality. ....BUT, they were brilliantly organised, and once you went behind to them it was unlikely that you got back into the game. So I didn't see any way back in until those magical last six or seven minutes, when the match started to fray a little at the edges, Bayern hit the post and reality started to wobble and judder, and the whole Bayern house of cards began to collapse. Bayern's strengths were very simple: organisation, mental toughness, physicality and towering Teutonic arrogance. They had Jancker, a huge gormless carnival freak of a centre forward, and they'd often lump it up to him to score, or to hold the ball up. And they scored from a typically flukey, ugly set-piece(which shouldn't have been awarded, since it wasn't a foul). And after that we created very little. We didn't play well either. They were too well organised, and SO defensive. Seriously, they were unbelievably boring to watch. My idea of hell would be watching Ottmar Hitzfeld's Bayern play ninety minutes over and over again. It would have been an *atrocity* if Bayern had won the CL that season. They had played terrible, tedious football all throughout the competition - United, on the other hand, had thrilled the entirety of Europe with some of the greatest matches in the Champions' League's history, from the Barcelona group games to the Juventus semi final. It was divine justice that Bayern lost and United won. Don't get me wrong: Bayern have had great teams over the years. But the Hitzfeld teams were just horrible to watch. They were anti-football. They were also enormously arrogant, with a team full of famous arseholes, like Basler, Matthaus and Effenberg. So it was satisfying to see them crumble in the last couple of minutes, and it was extremely satisfying to snatch the cup out of Lothar Matthaus's grasping greedy hands after he looked so confident coming off in the last few minutes. It remains the most intense moment in my life of watching football. That whole season was so full of crazy rollercoaster reversals and last minute wins(Liverpool in the FA Cup!), and impossible tightrope walk wins that United supporters like me had almost gotten used to something insane happening late on. But this was just...unprecedented. I remember I ran through the house screaming like a lunatic, woke up my little sisters, must've scared the shit out of them, and lost my voice for the next couple of days. Other teams will win trebles. But no-one will win a treble in such an insane way, with such an insanely entertaining, crazy season, with so many epic games in it.

two of the all-time greats that have ever stood between the posts.

My personal heroes sitting together! Awesome! 😍👍

two great big and legend gol kepper very wonderful

Probatly two of the most badass keepers ever.

Oliver Kahn looks like a father figure whom i will never mess with, I will be so obedient if he was my father

Really respect them both there talking about it. And the other substitution was Basler.

Best reaction i ever saw ^^

The two best keepers of the 90's.

5 years! Thanks for RU-vid

2 rivalry legends

Two of the all time best

2 Legends

2 lendas

Real high. I've been a goalkeeper for 15 years and idolised Peter from age 9. I learnt all his methods and characteristics and have supported Man Utd as a child. All throughout this series I found myself agreeing with every single point Peter raised on every video. Oliver Kahn is beyond obnoxious in the whole series and can tell he's either not interested in his points, disagrees with his points, doesn't like it when he disagrees and either cuts him off to change subject (Denis Irwin) or ends it completely. And I agree with the bad luck superstition with the hands question. Peter is the only keeper I have no bad word to say over the last 20 years. Only Buffon and we Gea have earned that right since. Thank you Peter for your humility, sense of humour, teachings about respect and all the goalkeeping aspects (which is the least important in the grand scheme of things). I've learnt more about all facets of life and how to be and handle yourself as a person from Peter than any teacher. For the Keepers: 6.25/5

2 legend ❤❤❤

2of the best ever

Top goalkeeper that time

"lack of organisation" is when we do whatever it takes to win

I am... creating... confusion.
