Liverpool Fixtures

Ahead of Liverpool's Champions League last-16 meeting with Real Madrid, we take a look at five memorable Anfield encounters the Reds have enjoyed against ...

With talismanic attacking duo Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino sidelined through injury, Divock Origi stepped up to the mark and gave the Reds hope with a seventh-minute opener. One goal down from the away leg and faced with a classy, well-drilled opponent, Liverpool had it all do when the Yellow Submarine rocked up at Anfield. The next 45 minutes were played out in almost unbearable tension, as a Barça side featuring the likes of Rivaldo, Pep Guardiola and Marc Overmars chased a leveller. Club Brugge were beaten in the final as Liverpool went on to win their second UEFA Cup title. Gary McAllister nervelessly fired in from 12 yards to give Liverpool the lead and send the crowd into raptures. A total of 55,104 supporters packed into Anfield to witness Liverpool lock horns with Johan Cruyff and co – and an electric atmosphere hit fever pitch when Phil Thompson’s close-range finish shortly after half-time extended the Reds’ aggregate advantage.
