Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson doubts their 1999 Champions League triumph over Bayern Munich will ever be bettered for drama.

Ferguson does not envisage future Champions League finals to carry the same drama as when United scored two late goals to beat Bayern 2-1 in the 1999 showpiece.

Ahead of this week's quarterfinal against Bayern, the Scot said: "It's the most dramatic moment of my career, definitely.

"Nobody will ever win a European Cup like that again. Every time a team is 1-0 up with three minutes left, they will keep thinking of Manchester United.

"How did we win it? Even now I don't know - it was just fate. But, don't forget, that particular team had kept scoring late that season, so it wasn't an accident.

"But when you are 1-0 down and the fourth official puts up three minutes for injury-time, you can't think you are going to win it."
