Agree with Hairychested.

I remember the commentator pointing out that the mayor of Munich had shaken hands with the mayors of Manchester and Barcelona and was preparing to leave. Sit down Fritz!

Get in.

Oh, too many to mention but here's a couple, from sports I love.

1/ 1990 World Cup - David Platt's last minute goal. Made all the more special because I finished my finals 4 days before the finals started and graduated the day of the World Cup Final. In between, I watched all the games with my University mates, and the build up and atmosphere to the England games was something else. Stone Roses 'This is the One' being the theme to the games, few beers in evidence..... and then Gazza swings in a free kick, Platty swivels and scores and I think I had the same feeling as 100 simultaneous orgasms!

2/ Not a moment - but a passage. England vs Sth Africa: Atherton has nicked one from Donald and stood there and been given not out. Donald is absolutely seething. The next few minutes shows exactly why Test Cricket is still the best. Donald works Atherton over so brilliantly and Atherton stares back after each ball impassively. FEC he may have been but that and the Johannesburg escape showed that wneh it comes to balls, not many bigger than Mike Atherton.

3/ Rugby WCF, 2003. But not the drop goal. That was inevitable and therefore diluted as a moment for me. To me the magic moment was as England were working into position with a series of rucks. Dawson saw a gap and went for it, but got tackled and laid the ball back. Next man there was Johnson. What does he do? Stand in as scrum half and try to set Wilkinson up? No - under intense pressure, he's the coolest man on the pitch and makes the superb decision that he'll do what he has practised time and again. He takes short pass, drives on a few paces and goes to ground, setting the ball up perfectly so that Dawson, back on his feet now is back in position to do his job, so Wilko can do his. No panic, supreme professionalism and decision making.

James Toseland winning his first WSB title.

He fought very hard for it, Ducati were embarrased because they'd not got a ride for him the next year because nobody expected it, and to top it all the team mate he beat was a Frenchman

Have to agree about the Arsenal one. Was it televised on a Friday night?

My favourite was Indurain's breakaway to Liege in '95 Bruyneel's quote 'it was like sitting behind a motorbike'.

Forget the Manure numpties; the greatest end to The Greatest Final was undoubtedly Dudek's save from Sheva, in 2005.

Mind, the whole match was a thriller, really. So many moments.

Spose it depends on what team you support. Arse fans conveniently forget the 2001 FA Cup Final...

Non footie, it must be Greg Lemond, winning the Tour by 8 seconds from Laurent Figroll, in '89. With shotgun pellets still lodged in his body. That was a proper close finish! And what an achievement. Miles better than anything that boring Texan has done.

1999 Champions League Final - despair followed by ecstacy
2003 Rugby World Cup Final - What a match! I bounced off every wall... and the ceiling!
Rebecca Adlington in Beijing. Totally unexpected and the sheer *joy* on her face was a magical thing to behold.

Thanks for the link ton!
Apparently Armstrong tried to get Indurain to come out of retirement in '99 to ride for him.

Another one for me Dave Narey's 'toe poke' against Brazil at the '82 world cup.

Also England's last competitive game at Wembley.

Kevin Pietersen's 158 to win the 2005 Ashes. Incredible pummelling of one of the best bowling attacks of all time, under the most intense match/series situation. Brought a tear to my eye.
