15 UEFA Champions League Finalists Who Played For Newcastle

14. Andy Cole (1999) - Manchester United 2-1 Bayern Munich

Another incredible English comeback in a Champions League final, but this time it was in the dying seconds as Manchester United snatched the European Cup away from Bayern Munich in Barcelona. Andy Cole played for the first 81 minutes of the game - and for all bar the first of those the Red Devils trailed 1-0 to Mario Basler's early goal. Once Cole was substituted, his replacement Ole Gunnar Solskjaer had a major impact - bagging the winner in the 93rd minute following Teddy Sheringham's equaliser after 91 minutes.
