Ole Gunnar Solksjaer Manchester United
The Champions League final from 1999 also features high on this list of great passes

#1 The pass – Teddy Sheringham to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer

The game – 1999, Manchester United vs Bayern Munich

The story – In the Champions League final, United were trailing 1-0 to Bayern Munich courtesy a Mario Basler goal. Untied trailed for 90 minutes. But then, a goal from Teddy Sheringham (90+1’) would draw the game level. And in the dying minute of the game, came a headed flick from Sheringham after David Beckham’s corner which resulted in a tap in for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer at the far post. Making it 2-1.

To this day we don’t know if Sheringham meant that flick as a pass. The last minute of the game, the last kick of the football, it is by far, the most crucial of pass ever made. And it won Manchester United a historic treble.
