Arsenal vs Ruud van Nistelrooy
In Arsenal’s ‘invincible’ season, the score was 0-0, and in the final minutes of the game, Manchester United were awarded a penalty. Ruud van Nistelrooy stepped up but missed from the spot.
The controversy ensued when, in reaction to the miss, Arsenal players surrounded the forward in anger of his behaviour throughout the match.
However, revenge was exacted when a year later, van Nistelrooy ended the Gunners’ unbeaten run in a 2-0 victory at Old Trafford with a goal from the penalty-spot.
