Quarter-Final

Liverpool 2-1 Juventus (5th April 2005)

Liverpool were in dream land after half an hour of this one. Sami Hyypia scored an immaculate volley to give the Reds the lead, only to be outdone by a ridiculous long-range strike from Garcia, which left everyone inside Anfield with their mouths hanging open. Fabio Cannavaro pulled a goal back for the visitors after a mix up at the back, leaving the tie very much in the balance heading back to Turin.

The Reds had Carragher and Hyypia to thank for their immense defensive performances, as we booked our place in the last four. Juventus threw everything at us but simply couldn’t find a way through, with goalkeeper Scott Carson pulling off a number of memorable saves in the absence of Dudek.
