The sigtune alone brings nostalgic moments down the spine of most football loyalists.
It's UEFA champions league night.This night the best of European club football competition begins.Over billions of football fans will be glued to their tv set and others will at the Various stadia across Europe
Football and stats are inseparable. Therefore I have decided to provide some stats in the game between Man UTD and Young Boys
Young Boys have lost their previous two UEFA European matches against Manchester United, losing two group stage matches in the 2018-19 season.
Manchester United have won 50 per cent of their UEFA Champions League games against Swiss opponents (W4 D2 L2), with every game coming in the group stages against either Basel (W2 D2 L2) or Young Boys (W2).
In all European competition, Young Boys have only won one of their eight matches against English opponents (D1 L6), winning 3-2 against Spurs in the UEFA Champions League qualifying play-offs in August 2010 under Vladimir Petković - they lost the second leg 4-0 and went out 6-3 on aggregate.
Young Boys featured in the UEFA Champions League once previously, finishing bottom of the table in the group stage in 2018-19. Their first match in that campaign was at home to Manchester United, losing 3-0.
Manchester United have lost their first match in just one of their last 21 UEFA Champions League campaigns (W13 D7), losing 2-1 to PSV in the 2015-16 season under Louis van Gaal.
Lest I forgot,C.Ronaldo I chasing another land mark achievement.The 36 year old , will equal another legend Iker Casilas record as the player with most appearance in the UEFA champions league.As it is now Casilas has made 117 appearance
