Bayern Munich 1999-2001 Home Short Sleeve Football Shirt [As worn by Effenberg, Lizarazu, Scholl]

Description

This is the fully-customizable short-sleeve home kit for Bayern Munich’s 1999-2000 and 2000-2001 seasons.

This shirt is remembered by Bayern fans as one full of success, as they won multiple trophies in the two years they’ve worn it. Led by the ever-tumultuous but incredibly talented tiger Stefan Effenberg, they won the Bundesliga two times and the European Cup once in these two seasons, and also lost another European Cup final (the famous Camp Nou one where Manchester United won with two last-minute goals). The Bavarians had, in effect, one of their most formidable and fondly-remembered teams, and both these seasons were filled with luck, both positive and negative.

In the 1999-2000 season, they won the Bundesliga on goal difference, making it a very lucky win, but the European Cup final was much more unlucky. We won’t go into it since most Bayern fans feel a knife twist in their hearts when we talk about it.

In the 2000-2001 Bundesliga season, there was a crazy season finale involving Schalke and Bayern. Schalke had to win their last match on that 19th of May 2001, and they won 5-3 after trailing by 3-2. Bayern, on the other hand, were playing Hamburg. The match was 0-0 until the 90th minute when Hamburg scored to give Schalke the title. Schalke fans actually started running on the field and celebrating in raptures. However, Bayern never dies. The big screen at the Schalke stadium ignited back, showing Bayern still playing. They had an indirect free-kick in the 94th minute, and as we all know, Bayern never dies. The Swede Patrik Andersson scored on the last kick of the match, making Bayern champions once again. In the European Cup, they went all the way, beating both Manchester United and Real Madrid in the knockout stages before winning against Valencia on penalties, winning their 4th European Cup with a bit of luck.

Notable Players: Stefan Effenberg, Bixente Lizarazu, Mehmet Scholl, Jens Jeremies, Hasan Salihamidžić, Paulo Sérgio, Giovane Élber, Owen Hargreaves
