IN THE YEAR 1992/1993 CHAMPION LEAGUE WINNER WAS STRIPPED OF THE TROPHY.

 In the year 1992/1993 the French club  Olympique Marseille  had gone and won the Champion League  final. And they had very good players like Didier Deschamps , Rudi Voller , and  A. Pele.They had a very strong defence as well..
 That year Olympique Marseille  became the very first French club in the Champion League history to go and win the champion league for the year 1992/1993.
 But this joy  was sadly very short lived  , as U.E.F.A  had proven beyond doubt that the then owner  of Olypique Marseille  Mr Bernard Tapie , had indeed gone and played dirty in French football by having many games match fixed.
 Olyipique Marseille  were  stripped of the Champion league title.
 Tis was the first time  the champion League winner   history was a champion winner disqualified and lost the trophy.
 Mind you a club from France is still waiting to lift a Champion League  trophy.

FIVE MOST FAMOUS RED CARDS IN FOOTBALL.

Over the years there have been many red cards shown to players, some were very needless to get. Like These. 1) The 1990 world cup final between Argentina and West Germany. In that match and time in the world rules only two substitutes were allowed with two players from Argentina already on red cards ,and the few injuries as well, no silly red card could be afforded by Argentina. But here Pedro Monzon and Dezotti both got red cards , it was the first time at a world cup a player was shown the red card, West Germany won by a contrevarsial penalty , the goal was scored by Andrea Brehme. 2) In the 1998 world cup Laurent Blanc was shown a red card so he missed out the final. 3) 1998 in the match between England and Argentina,The match was tied at 2-2, but David Beckham got a red card, for willfully bringing Diego Simone down with his legs. And yes England missed one of their penalties. It would have been different if David Beckham had stayed on the pitch. 4) The 2006 saw the illfamous head butting by the great footballer from France Headbutting marco Matrezzi, Both Zinedine Zidane and Marco Matrezzi were shown the red card 5) In the 1990 world cup in Italy in the match West Germany vs Holland. Both Frank Raijkard and Rudi Voller got the red card. The reason was it appears Rudi Voller said something hurtful to Frank Raijkard, Frank Raijkard retaliated by spitting at Rudi Voller, both got their marching orders.
