Daniel and Rob revisit a counter-attacking clinic from April 1993, when United played football from the future and took their title rivals Norwich (yep) to the cleaners at Carrow Road. Ryan Giggs, Andrei Kanchelskis and Eric Cantona scored in an unbelievable eight-minute spell to put United 3-0 up at half-time. Their eventual 3-1 win ended a springtime blip and started a euphoric sprint to a first league title in 26 years.
