European Cup semi-finalists in 1984 Dundee United faced Barcelona for the first and only time in 1987 UEFA Cup quarterfinals.

Barcelona had just lost by four goals after a 20 game win streak and the games against Dundee United seemed like the ideal opportunity to get back on a winning road.

But the Scottish side shocked Barcelona with a 1-0 win at home. The only goal came from 21-year-old Kevin Gallacher on the second minute. Dundee United still were massive underdogs coming into the second game.

Barcelona scored the aggregate equalizing goal on the 40th minute. Until the very end, both teams were quit so the extra-time seemed to be coming. But Dundee United stunned the home crowd and scored after a free kick on the 85th minute. They didn't stop there and got another goal, sensationally winning in Camp Nou.

One of the heroes of the tie Gallacher has since looked back to the famous wins: ''When we scored the white handkerchiefs came out. Then we scored again and all the fans went crazy.''

Dundee United reached the final of UEFA Cup but lost to Goteborg.
