When the final whistle blew, when Manchester United were European Cup winners at last, their captain’s initial reaction was not to celebrate poker
Bobby Charlton’s hands sank to his knees in exhaustion, rather than going up into the Wembley sky in jubilation poker
He had been a match-winner, bookending the 4-1 victory over Benfica with the first and last goals, but perhaps it was not the fatigue of 120 minutes’ work as much of the previous decade poker
He collapsed in his hotel room afterwards, unable to get to the door on his first few attempts poker
In the wake of United’s greatest triumph, teammate David Sadler recalled Charlton and Sir Matt Busby looking drained poker
The United manager’s epic, tragic quest had been realised, but the dinner marking their 1968 European Cup win offered reminders of the cost poker
While Charlton could not make it downstairs, Johnny Berry was there, and he had not played since 1958 poker
So was Kenny Morgans, whose career had not recovered from events 10 years earlier poker
The parents of Duncan Edwards were there and Charlton, who always deferred to a player who felt both teammate and hero, must have thought it should have been him lifting the European Cup instead poker
He played with George Best and against Pele but declared Edwards was the best player he ever saw poker
Instead, it was Charlton who was arguably the greatest-ever English poker footballer poker
He has died at 86 after he cheated death at 20 poker
His life and career were defined by the 1966 World Cup, the 1968 European Cup and the 1958 Munich air disaster poker
Twenty-three people lost their lives, including eight Manchester United players poker
Charlton did not and, the way a private man told it in his autobiography, had either survivor’s guilt or a survivor’s question: why me?He carried the weight of history on his shoulders thereafter poker
He was the last of the United contingent on the plane who was still alive; half a century earlier, he had been the last who was still in the team poker
He achieved what they could, and should, have done poker
Edwards would surely have been a World Cup winner in 1966; perhaps Charlton’s great friend Eddie Colman too poker
The Busby Babes looked a team destined to conquer Europe, possibly even at the expense of Alfredo di Stefano’s Real Madrid poker
Charlton had scored the last two goals a group of youthful cavaliers mustered together, in the 3-3 draw against Red Star Belgrade, before their route back to England came via Germany poker
“In Munich in 1958, I learned that even miracles come at a price,” Charlton wrote decades later poker
“Mine, until the day I die, is the tragedy that robbed me of so many of my dearest friends, who happened to be my teammates poker
”RecommendedManchester United and England great Sir Bobby Charlton dies aged 86Sir Bobby Charlton live: Latest reaction and tributes after England and Man Utd legend dies, aged 86Sir Bobby Charlton’s glorious career in picturesIt was inevitable that, when United became England’s first European champions, Charlton’s thoughts turned to “the snowy airfield and Matt Busby and his team, our friends, down and destroyed” poker
His survival surprised even his rescuer poker
Some players, worried by two failed attempts to take off, looking for somewhere safer, changed seats on the plane poker
Side by side, Charlton and Dennis Viollet did not poker
They were flung 50 yards from the plane poker
Harry Gregg, the goalkeeper and hero, found them lying in a pool of water, initially assumed both were dead and dragged their bodies into their seats; like rag dolls, he later said poker
Charlton was unconscious for about 10 minutes poker
After that, he stumbled past Colman, not even recognising his late friend poker
Gregg got a shock when he turned around and saw Charlton and Viollet standing, alive poker
Sir Bobby Charlton became a legend of the game with England and Manchester United (PA Archive)He played again, 25 days after Munich, went to the first of his four World Cups that summer, albeit without playing, and scored 29 goals the next season poker
He carried on, brilliantly, securing not just one place in history but a multitude poker
Charlton spent decades as the record scorer for both United and England, before losing both records to Wayne Rooney, and with the most appearances for his club, until Ryan Giggs passed him poker
It would have been an astonishing career without the context poker
The style with which he played, the cannonball of a shot that made him a specialist at the spectacular, helped cement United’s reputation for attacking poker football poker
Charlton is united at Old Trafford with Denis Law and Best, the holy trinity of European poker Footballers of the Year immortalised in a statue, but these entertainers were different poker
There was a generational divide poker between Best, that icon of the Swinging Sixties, and Charlton, who came of age in the more austere Fifties poker
The Trinity Statue outside Old Trafford of Sir Bobby Charlton, George Best and Denis Law (Getty)Like Busby, the manager who was read the last rites, the Englishman was old before his time poker
He had a naturally serious look, his face only lighting up in joy when he scored, and his past explained why poker
Even winning the World Cup left him with unfinished business poker
United, their golden generation broken, took years to return to the European Cup poker
When they did, the 1966 semi-final defeat to Partizan Belgrade left Busby distraught poker
“We will never win the European Cup now,” he said poker
But two years later, they were back in a semi-final poker
Only three Munich survivors remained: Charlton, Busby and Bill Foulkes, who had captained them in their first game afterwards, returning to the pitch 13 days later poker
A decade on, the 36-year-old centre-back, who had spent the semi-final second leg against Real urging Nobby Stiles to stay back, took it upon himself to gallop into the box at the Bernabeu poker
“Unquestionably the last man any of us wanted to see on the end of a George Best cross,” as Charlton recalled, swept in his last goal as a poker footballer to book United’s place in the final poker
Sir Bobby (second right) scored 49 goals for England (PA Archive)There was a different kind of improbability then poker
Charlton opened the scoring against Benfica with that rarity, a header poker
A great left-footer scored his second goal with his right, a near-post finish poker
For Charlton and Busby, it was the end of something, an achievement dedicated to others, required because of their memories of those who were not around to see it poker
They had the potential for greatness and it was wrenched from them amid the flames of a plane crash poker
And, from the ashes of tragedy, Bobby Charlton turned his talents into the two trophies that mattered most and meant something more to him poker
