Beyer Leverkausen v Liverpool (Friendly C:91, think it may have been Steve McMenamans' first game because we all thought that they had spelt McMahon wrong on the scoreboard and even the Scousers in our group hadn't heard of him)

Saw a game in Paraguay that was a qualifier for their version of the South American version of the Champions League, don't remember the names of the teams but I cheered for one in black and white stripes as their opponents played in blue and red stripes.

Also in Belgium, saw Hibernian play RSC Liege in the UEFA Cup in late 89. Have also seen approximately 60 Hearts games, if we are counting Scotland overseas, plus a few more in the NL and Belgium that now escape my fading memory.

Probably the most enjoyable overall, trip and game, was the first Serie A Verona derby. 3-2, full house, awesome.
