The first visual shows one of the entrances into London's Old Trafford stadium while the second is that of a clock in the stadium that always shows the same time. Why the references to Munich in a British stadium?Answer: The references are to the infamous Munich air disaster of 1958 that killed 8 Manchester United players and several staff members and journalists that were traveling with them. Anand, Arvind, Vateez, Vijay, Anshul, Manix and Hirak got it. Well done.
