Bayern has not forgotten the 1999 defeat to Man Utd

"I believe that Bayern will advance, but we need to play seriously in each match. Bayern has had several interesting encounters with Man Utd. Everyone remembers the match in 1999. Copenhagen just won the double title in Denmark. They are a strong team. The atmosphere at Galatasaray is always special. Their next match in Munich is also worth waiting for," Jung said on the Bayern homepage after the draw results were announced.

Bayern and Man Utd are both in Group A, according to the draw results on the evening of August 31. This is a match with many fates in European football. In particular, the most famous was the 1998-1999 Champions League final when Bayern took the lead from the sixth minute but lost 1-2 by two goals in stoppage time in the second half.

In this encounter, Bayern is more appreciated. The Bundesliga champion has always been considered a candidate to win the Champions League in recent seasons. Meanwhile, Man Utd is struggling to regain its old glory after parting with former coach Alex Ferguson. They have just returned to the most prestigious arena in Europe after a season of absence. Along with Group A, there are Copenhagen and Galatasaray - two other clubs rich in European football traditions.

Commenting on the draw results, Bayern coach Thomas Tuchel said: "Every opponent brings different challenges in the Champions League. Bayern needs to face them with great desire and dedication. With Man Utd, Copenhagen and Galatasaray , this is an attractive group for the participating teams and fans. We can't wait for the day the European arena opens."

Striker Thomas Muller is excited at the prospect of reuniting with Erik ten Hag - who was the coach of Bayern's reserve team before leading Man Utd. Meanwhile, teammate Kingsley Coman was satisfied with the draw results, thinking that Bayern had a great chance to advance by entering this group.
