Sky Sports viewers vote ex-Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson's substitutions in the 1999 Champions League final against Bayern Munich as the best ever decision in sport.

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has been named responsible for making the best ever decision in sport by Sky Sports viewers.

The Scotsman's use of substitutes in the 1999 Champions League final against Bayern Munich has come out on top following a search of the best sporting decisions in the last 100 years.

Ferguson brought on strikers Teddy Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who scored in the 91st and 93rd minute respectively to win the trophy for the Red Devils.

Barcelona's decision to pay the medical fees for Lionel Messi to move to Spain when he was 11 years old came in second, while Rafael Benitez's decision to bring on Dietmar Hamann in the second half of Liverpool's Champions League win over AC Milan in 2005 also featured.
