The Red Devils' unforgettable night in Barcelona headlines the top replays to watch, but that isn't the only exciting match headed for our screens.

The unforgettable 2007 Women's World Cup final brought back on air for #WorldCupAtHome campaign

Monday brings the final game of the #WorldCupAtHome campaign for April 24-27 and what a final it is. The match that will be replayed is the 2007 FIFA Women's World Cup final between Germany and Brazil. This tie saw the European giants and then-defending champions go head-to-head with Marta and Co.

Unlike the 2002 men's World Cup final, this fixture did not end in heartbreak for the Germans. In fact, it was the South American powerhouse who left empty-handed. Despite boasting Marta, the Selecao sensation was unable to lead her nation to glory, with Birgit Prinz stealing the limelight instead. Don't miss this replay!

From controversies galore to historic comeback: Re-live two of the most iconic Champions League clashes on B/R Live

B/R Live will be airing replays from the immensely popular UEFA Champions League tournament. Two of the highlight games on their schedule until April 30 are iconic matches, but for opposite reasons. The first is that 2009 clash between Chelsea and Barcelona which will never forgotten by the Blues fans. Those 90 minutes at Stamford Bridge were riddled with controversies, resulting in Drogba's full-time outburst at both the official and the cameras as the London giants were knocked out in the semis in an unfortunate manner. It is known as one of the most controversial games in the competition's history and now fans can re-live it on B/R Live come Tuesday, April 28.

The other headline fixture is iconic but for all the right reasons as it is Man United's memorable comeback against Bayern Munich in the 1998/99 Champions League final. It wasn't the greatest of nights for the Germans as they threw away a 1-0 lead thanks to extra-time goals from Sheringham and a certain Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Both teams held hopes of winning the treble prior to this final but that honor went to the Red Devils, becoming the first English club to pull this off. Re-live this moment of history on B/R Live come Wednesday, April 29.
