Talk:1998–99 UEFA Champions League

Untitled

This article has serious neutrality problems; the article has a blatant Manchester United bias - "Why do it the easy way? Indeed, the Red Devils appeared to have the class and confidence to deal with any situation", and "But then a miracle happened". The article only seems to mention Manchester United - fair enoguh if the article was about the final - but it is the whole tournament. Manchester United is repeatedly emboldened, many stories of other teams can be included here instead. Narsamson 18:11, 5 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The commentry was taken straight from UEFA.com - hardly a biased source of information. Though it did seem a bit over-the-top about Manchester United. How about talking of Dynamo Kiev's run to the semi-finals for example?

An article talking about a tournament is inevitably bound to be biased in favour of the team that's won it; how can it not be?! Yes, a lot of the cruft can be stripped down, but at the end of the day one team won it. Nobody remembers beaten semi-finalists. Kinitawowi 14:25, 15 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

United beat Juventus 3-2 away, it wasn't a 2-2 draw. I'm suprised nobody noticed before me.

I don't think Real Madrid v Inter in the group stages was played at the Bernabeau. Because of the problems with the nets in the semi v Dortmund the year before they were banned from playing at home for a number of European games by UEFA. I'm pretty sure it was played at the Ramon Sanchez in Sevilla. They may have played other European games there too that season, I can't quite remember. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.142.17.111 (talk) 13:53, 10 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in 1998–99 UEFA Champions League

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 1998–99 UEFA Champions League's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
