The 1957–58 season was Manchester United's 56th in the Football League, and their 13th consecutive season in the top division of English football. The season marked the biggest tragedy in the club's history as eight players, three club officials and ten other passengers died as a result of their injuries in the Munich air disaster on 6 February 1958 on their way back from a European Cup quarter-final away to Red Star Belgrade. Centre-half Mark Jones, captain Roger Byrne, full-back Geoff Bent, winger David Pegg, right-half Eddie Colman, inside-right Bill Whelan and centre-forward Tommy Taylor were all killed instantly. Left-half Duncan Edwards was in hospital for two weeks before he too died on 21 February.

  • Сезон 1957/58 стал для «Манчестер Юнайтед» 56-м сезоном в Футбольной лиге и 13-м сезоном подряд в высшем дивизионе чемпионата Англии. В этом сезоне «Манчестер Юнайтед» пережил величайшую трагедию в своей истории: 6 февраля 1958 года в мюнхенской авиакатастрофе погибло восемь футболистов и трое сотрудников клуба; ещё двое футболистов выжили, но больше никогда не играли в футбол. Несмотря на эту трагедию, «Юнайтед» смог выйти в финал Кубка Англии, в котором уступил «Болтону». В полуфинале Кубка европейских чемпионов команда уступила «Милану». В чемпионате «Юнайтед» занял 9-е место. (ru)
