Even though everyone in Brazil cheered for Milan that day given the big brazilian names on the team (Kaka, Cafu, Dida), I couldn't get over the fact that I had witnessed such an impossible comeback from an underdog. Now I'm 21 and even more passionate about my Reds, hoping I get to watch a game at Anfield someday.

Breezey Waters for the average person yes,for the football fanatics no
A player like Steven Gerrard is the best thing that any football fans will dream to have in their club. A local lad who captained his side, scored countless crucial goals and lead his team to victory in CL final after 3-0 down.. I remember it was a special day for me and whole Liverpool whenever he scores.. his body language and authority in the field is incomparable with any other players.. Haters can say he didn't won PL so he is not the best but ultimately its not about winning, its not about the final score.. Its about how you felt during a game.. its about how you experienced a season.. I am sure every Liverpool fans would have experienced ecstasy when Steven Gerrard scored in FA cup final and against Olympiakos to advance through group stage..I really wanted Liverpool to win 2013-14 season for Gerrard to have a remarkable story with happy ending.. But now I feel like some stories are better with sad ending.. Steven Gerrard is the best story to ever happen in PL or perhaps in world football..
He is great legend liverpool needs a player like him again he is their hero
Gerrard can't beat the Dons tho 😂😂😂
@@ShnickleNow top of the table mate
"his body language and authority in the field is incomparable with any other players" I tell you no player can excite Anfield the way Stevie did with his sprint celebrations and his hands punching left and right. He literally owned the entire fans. No player, in my opinion, has come close to the way Stevie celebrated. He just had that special connection with the fans and with the ground.

When Traore cleared the ball of the line, when Dudek made that impossible double save, when the unlikely players like Pirlo and Shevchenko misses their penalty, you know that the football Gods already picked their winner even before the kick off. This is truly a miracle.

That comeback was unbelievable and you can tell the AC Milan players were completely shocked that they couldn’t even take their penalties. And that Dudek double save just wow, after that save you could tell it was just written in the stars. 14 years later I saw the second greatest game ever when we beat Barcelona 4 nil at Anfield, and now after 16 years of being a Liverpool fan finally we are Premier League champions.

@@sanurath1893 Indians only show hate behind the computer screens, Nice of you to join your fellow mates. Still i wish you a good day sir!
This is one of the BEST ucl finals out there. Underdogs facing one of the best teams? seems impossible, but they made it possible. And a dramatic penalty shootout to end it, what a final🔥🔥🔥
Kaka’s pass for the third goal just proves he can do what de bruyne can do, and better
Just to say, Andrea Pirlo wanted to stop his career after this match, but he didn't give up and won the world cup and the ucl a couple of years later ! But this match was lit !!
Its absolutely astounding to see the best passer that ever existed in football to miss a penalty
@@Mipetz38 yeah it was crazy how Xabi Alonso needed to score the equalizer from a rebound after missing his penalty! Oh and I guess Pirlo was an okay passer too 😉 (Just kidding obviously, Pirlo is ahead of even Xabi Alonso as the GOAT of passing)
What you on about? He was only 26 in 2005!
@@jamesstevenson1652 he told it
Won the world cup a year later and the CL 2 years later
Reading Fan. Gerrard, the greatest player to not win a Premier League title, but this one was so amazing to watch back in the day, a truly class player, a lot of people mock him for "The slip" but, personally, I was so heartbroken for the guy, I'd like to see Liverpool win the league soon.
You'll never walk alone
Messi and many other legends never won the prem...
@@bluecrasher7710 lmao hahahha good one.
A super match, unforgettable legend TURKEY
Imagine a fan telling the stoey decades later to his grandchildren" They came from behind to win it and i was there " True football heritage ❤
Vladimir Smicer's last kick as LFC player won us the European Cup :')
Did he get fired?
@@danischannel he probably retired although im not sure
Smicer was way past his prime, he was 32-33 in this match. his contract was not renewed by the club and he decided to end his Liverpool career in style before moving to other non EPL club.
And to think, he only score one goal that season. The most important one without doubt.
dita smicer da legend
Best UCL final of all time.
Then what was the best final ?
As of 2022, that is still true.
"What a beautiful game is it"
