The greatest final
ever!
Many avid football supporters have hailed Liverpools
glory night as the best European Cup final ever. This will
go down in history people will be talking about it
in 20 or 30 years time. Its unbelievable. AC Milan,
Liverpool's opponents, went 3-0 up before half-time and many
thought the game was over. Shortly after the interval, we
witnessed five minutes of madness that changed the course
of things and cost AC Milan the cup. Three well taken goals
led by captain Steve Gerrard, enabled the Kop fans to come
back to equalise. The game went into extra time and the inevitable
penalty shoot out was on the cards. Liverpool
keeper, Jerzy Dudek's save from Shevchenko's penalty sealed
cup glory for Liverpool. The Anfield side get to keep the
trophy after winning it for a fifth time.
