To celebrate this iconic chapter in Manchester United's history, adidas has launched a Bring-Back Collection of the European Cup Winners' Cup victory in 1991.
The 1990–91 European Adventure
As winners of the 1990 FA Cup, Manchester United earned a spot in the European Cup Winners’ Cup, a prestigious UEFA tournament for domestic cup champions.
Manchester United hadn’t lifted a European trophy since the days of Sir Matt Busby in 1968 and this campaign was a chance to end that 23-year wait.

The famous white strip worn by Manchester United in Rotterdam was only ever played in once, due to UEFA color-clash regulations.
A draw determined which team would change. United lost the toss, meaning they got to debut a special white kit designed just for the final against Barcelona.
