Bayern had more control of the ball – there's no doubt that they were the better side. They prevented us from playing our game by not allowing us to counter-attack, which was our main strength.
Being the captain was a major factor for me as well. We played nine games in Europe, and I played every second of them. When reflecting on your career, these are the moments you think about the most.
Goalkeeper Nigel Spink had to come on after nine minutes and then try to play the game of his life, which he did. It's a story he'll cherish for the rest of his days.
We managed to keep the European Cup in England as the previous five winners had also been English [Liverpool three times and Nottingham Forest twice], which is a terrific thing from an English point of view.
