LIVERPOOL "BACK"
The 2005 Champions League final was a fantastic match in Istanbul. Not only by the way Liverpool came back from the dead, but also by the strange coincidence between the goals. All 11 goals scored in the finals of that year only took place on one side of the goal. The other side, thanks to the talent of the AC Milan players in the first half, the same save save the Djimi Traore and Jerzy Dudek in the second half help the goal is almost "useless".
Often in the finals, only the winner is remembered, but the memory of the defeated team will fade away gradually over the years. But the final in Istanbul is not. It was the AC Milan match that put fans away from one emotion to another. On the Liverpool side, both the game and the results of the game have broken feelings for the players and fans.
On the journey to Istanbul, the fans follow the team as pictured with the ball, whether to go to Italy against Juventus, or stand in the heart of the enemy at Stamford Bridge. They are close together, closer than ever, creating the closest relationship between players and fans. That was the reason when Dudek saved Shevchenko's final penalty at 12.29pm, so some Liverpool players were so happy to run to the crowd, hugging the fans instead. hugging teammates.
The final in Istanbul is also Liverpool's "double" comeback with European football. The first is the unbelievable backwash with 3 goals equalized in just six minutes of the second half, a feat never happened in a Champions League final. Besides, the 2005 finals also marked the turn of the last two decades of the Heysel disaster.
In the finals of that year, Liverpool not only lost to Juventus, but also to England. Because of this catastrophe, English football has been banned indefinitely from European championships (clubs have been banned after five years, Liverpool for six years). Despite the comments that most Liverpool fans do not do anything wrong, Hillsborough disaster took place four years later, like a slap in the Liverpool and English football collapse.
"Hernan Crespo has scored the Champions League trophy for AC Milan," "Liverpool are completely baffled," or "A victory can not be simpler than that ... Crespo's 32nd goal in Champions League made Ancelotti run out of pitch like a twentysomething youth "was what the commentators said on television in the first half of the match. After Milan led in the first minute thanks to Maldini, Crespo scored twice for the home side to lead 3 goals.
"I think we can now almost certainly say that AC Milan will win the Champions League," was the catch phrase for all those who watched the match. Some viewers watching TV even turned off the TV to sleep.
But football is always a place for dreams, and "almost certainly" does not mean that it will happen. After the final, the fans of both teams thought they were in a dream. The only difference is that one wants to live in those sweet memories, and one wants to wake up as soon as possible.

Unable to reach the local area of Milan in front of Stam - Nesta midfield duo Maldini and Cafu, Liverpool forced to launch long shots. Riise, then Luis Garcia turn the final phase rare hit the wall was easily denied Dida.
On the Milan side, Kaka made up the defending Hyypia, Carragher and Traore. Nearly he created Shevchenko to double the gap, unfortunately Sheva fell into the offside before smashing the net Dudek. While Liverpool striker Garcia-Baros is unlucky with their long-range struggles, they must have seen Milan twice. In the 39th minute, Kaka tapped the delicate slot for Shevchenko down the cross.

Then it started. Everything only takes 6 minutes. 6 minutes is not possible for both teams. On 54 minutes, Riise's cross was blocked by Cafu, but he continues to add a ball again. Gerrard bravely kicked in, flicked over, beating Dida.
No one thinks a midfielder like Gerrard can beat Stam, Nesta and Maldini in the same air. Gerrard's header reminds us of Roy Keane, when he hit the net at Juventus to help Manchester United come back to the semi-finals of the Champions League in 1999.
Like Keane, Gerrard's goal was to open another uprising. Just two minutes after the first draw, Liverpool once again shortened the gap. Vladimir Smicer was on the field after Kewell got a chance to hit the post. The ball went sinking, stretching, straight into Dida's far corner, causing him to bend his arm. From the lead three goals, only one goal left, and Liverpool has the opportunity to reverse the game.

But to the second half, Liverpool suddenly returned to spectacular, scored 3 goals in 6 minutes with Alonso equalizer equalizer is a penalty for two consecutive kick
In the 60th minute, Gerrard went down to the feet of Dida after a quick combination of power and team-mates. Gatttuso has no choice but to pull the foul shirt. Normally, Gerrard will be the shooter. But at that moment, the captain brought the penalty to Alonso. It seems Gerrard himself can not bear the pressure of facing this destiny.
Dida almost became a hero when he saved the penalty. But AC Milan are too black, when the ball comes out in front of Alonso, and he easily hits the net. 3-3. Liverpool had an unbelievable ratio. AC Milan is like a dream, constantly pressing forward Liverpool to score the next, but by this time the spirit of the Liverpool upset striker. At 90 minutes, then 120 minutes, Milan can not break through the Liverpool again.
The match went to the penalty kick. Liverpool have survived returning from the dead, and now they have nothing left to lose. The fans sing in the audience, because they understand the players have exhausted every last drop of strength to the game to end with a glimmer of hope: "Walk, go on, with hope in your heart, you will never be lonely "
PLEASE AFTER 20 YEARS
The match that led to the penalty kick caused the psychological battle to be reversed. Milan, who is calm and confident, is now in a state of panic and anxiety. At the same time, Liverpool is again blown away. Everything is shown in the shot. The first two turns Serginho and Pirlo both broke, while Hamann and Cisse succeeded.
Tomasson's and Kaka's defeat of Dudek's "dancing" did not change the situation of Milan on the penalty kick. Although Riise hit the wrong turn in the third, but Smicer again beat Dida. Milan are losing 2-3 on penalties, with one shot less than Liverpool. In that situation, Shevchenko stepped up to punish fate.
For 120 minutes, Sheva was unable to beat Dudek in any way. He slowly stepped on the penalty and hit a shot straight into the middle of the goal. Dudek flew towards the corner, but his long arm helped him to the back of the ball. Dudek got in time, the ball was pushed out. Sheva in frustration with Liverpool's disappointment, but everything is now meaningless.
If Manchester United were to mark England's return to the Champions League with a backlash in 1999, Liverpool chose their own way back in a much more dramatic way.
Liverpool came back and won when they all seemed to think they had only water left after losing in the first half. Liverpool's feat was like an apology, grateful to the 39 dead. In the finals in 1985, they chose the perfect 20-year time after the disaster, winning an Italian team to do so.
