The Munich disaster refers to a tragic event that occurred on February 6, 1958, when a British European Airways flight carrying the Manchester United football team crashed while attempting to take off from Munich-Riem Airport in Germany. The disaster resulted in the deaths of 23 people, including eight players, and left several others severely injured. The incident profoundly impacted the club and its supporters, leading to significant changes in football safety regulations and the way sports teams travel. It remains a poignant moment in the history of English football.
