Stefan Effenberg vs David Beckham | refuses to shake hands

This game was the Quarter-final of the 2000-2001 UEFA Champions League(1st leg) in the Old Trafford (Manchester United vs Bayern München).
They met again since the 1999 Champions League Final in Barcelona... i.e. after nearly 2 years...
The Final result was incredibly shocking to all German as well as Bayern.
So Bayern had been waiting for the revenge...
This game was fierce and they crashed into each other continuously.
Even Effenberg refused to shake hands with Beckham. 01:20
As a result, Bayern won as 1:0.

Effenberg said that he had no problems with all the other Manchester players being rough to him, but that that especially Beckham was a very unfair player who tried to wreck him and most of the time coming from behind. I remember that night very well. Effe had a dream night and was playing on his highest level, he outshadowed Beckham by a million to one, Beckham sure was furiuous. Regardless if it was a pass over only 2 meters, a long distance pass, a corner, a free kick. Effe did everything spot on that night.
