3
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:26,960
- Can you see anything?
- Yeah.
4
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,360
- Getting ready to roll.
- What can you see?
5
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:33,680
Champions League final in Istanbul.
6
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:35,919
2005.
7
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:41,400
We're about
to get underway here.
8
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:44,480
Liverpool against AC Milan.
9
00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:49,279
Just nervous watching this.
10
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:52,279
{\an8} No one gave
Liverpool any chance whatsoever
11
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,240
{\an8}at the start of this campaign.
12
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:56,639
If someone would have told me
13
00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:59,759
we would be in the Champions League final,
14
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:01,680
I'd have thought you were a madman.
15
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,999
We were a very average team.
16
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,440
But we'd been on this magical journey
that we didn't expect,
17
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,919
{\an8}and we were now in Istanbul.
18
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,919
{\an8} Liverpool standing
on the threshold of history
19
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:15,000
but against a star-studded Milan team.
20
00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:19,159
Wow. That's what we face.
21
00:01:22,320 --> 00:01:24,680
Every single player
was world-class.
22
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:27,360
Listen to this atmosphere.
23
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,640
They're really going to
make themselves heard tonight.
24
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,760
We felt the expectation
from the Liverpool fans.
25
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,319
There was that weight
on your shoulders of a whole city
26
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:43,320
waiting for that final for so long.
27
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,480
Tonight is the chance
to make up for lost time.
28
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,760
Twenty-one years waiting
for this major trophy.
29
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,599
The closer
you get to the kick-off,
30
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,000
the more you start believing you can win.
31
00:01:58,480 --> 00:02:02,040
We knew this was our chance
to create history.
32
00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,639
And it's in!
33
00:02:09,640 --> 00:02:11,319
It's two-nil Milan!
34
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:12,880
And it is three-nil!
35
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,079
The biggest game of your life
36
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:20,640
is turning into
37
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,880
the biggest nightmare of your life.
38
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,759
This could be the heaviest
ever defeat in a Champions League final.
39
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:31,600
They've been outclassed.
Totally outclassed.
40
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,199
At three-nil, it is over.
41
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,880
There is
the half-time whistle.
42
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,240
I'd never felt
more low as a footballer.
43
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,119
We were going to create history
for all the wrong reasons.
44
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,959
This is just
absolutely awful for Liverpool.
45
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,520
They're absolutely
all over the place.
46
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:55,479
This is very, very embarrassing.
47
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,840
You've got to get into that dressing room,
and get hold of it.
48
00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,359
No chance really
for Liverpool.
49
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,520
Liverpool need a miracle here.
50
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,119
Since that night,
I can't go anywhere in the world
51
00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,799
without someone asking me
what happened at half-time.
52
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,040
The question I always get is,
"What happened at half-time?"
53
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,880
I'm still trying to work it out.
54
00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:22,600
Just when
you think you've seen it all.
55
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,119
What I notice on a lot
of documentaries now, this bit now,
56
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,240
where it's all like quiet,
that gets shot a bit, and gets put in.
57
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,400
{\an8} While they're waiting
for the first question.
58
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:45,999
{\an8}Pensive.
59
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,999
{\an8} Give us
a few words will you, Jamie?
60
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,479
Liverpool, Istanbul, AC Milan,
Netflix, blockbuster.
61
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,599
Banging. Sold it at the end.
62
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,440
So, where would
you start this story, Jamie?
63
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:58,160
Uh...
64
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,839
For me,
65
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:04,640
the story starts
miles away from Liverpool,
66
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,519
in the summer of 2004,
67
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:08,640
in Portugal.
68
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,239
In Lisbon tonight,
the England team bus took the players
69
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,759
to a heavily guarded hotel on a hill
70
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:21,120
that they hope will be
their home until early July.
71
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:26,719
It's the
European Championships.
72
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,599
I'm there with the England squad,
73
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,080
alongside Michael Owen
and Steven Gerrard from Liverpool.
74
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:34,399
Even though we're there with England,
75
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:36,559
all three of us
used to think about Liverpool a lot.
76
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,599
- Just a bit forward, Jamie.
- Yeah.
77
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:40,719
I found it difficult
to switch off from the club.
78
00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:42,479
Straight down the lens.
79
00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:43,879
Jamie Carragher, defender.
80
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:47,240
Maybe one of the reasons why
England were never that successful.
81
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:49,840
Steven Gerrard, midfielder.
82
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,040
- Are you all right there?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
83
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,200
{\an8}I'm going to have a sore backside
eventually, but I'm all right for now.
84
00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,759
Just look
straight down the lens,
85
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,800
and say, "Michael Owen, striker."
86
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,759
- Where am I facing? Square on?
- Face me, yeah.
87
00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:13,280
{\an8}All three of us, we'd all been
at Liverpool since we were that big.
88
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:15,880
{\an8}Some will say I haven't grown much since.
89
00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,360
Liverpool Football Club
ran through our veins.
90
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,279
This is my bed and my side of the room
91
00:05:23,280 --> 00:05:27,159
where I keep posters
to remind me of Liverpool.
92
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,519
We would die for Liverpool Football Club.
93
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,279
When did you come to Liverpool?
When did you first come?
94
00:05:32,280 --> 00:05:33,599
I was about nine or ten.
95
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:36,959
What number would you like
to wear at this club when you make it?
96
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:38,120
Number eight.
97
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,159
There's something special and a bit
different when you come through the ranks.
98
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:44,959
There's definitely more of a bond.
99
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,079
There's more of a feeling of loyalty
and wanting to do well for the club.
100
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,759
Liverpool Football Club
was my love and passion.
101
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:56,400
We lived and breathed it,
and loved it and dreamt about it.
102
00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,640
In Portugal, there was a little bit of
uncertainty around the Liverpool players.
103
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,720
Our manager's gone.
104
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:10,800
Liverpool manager's gone.
105
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,839
After six seasons in charge,
106
00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:16,119
the manager of Liverpool
has left the club.
107
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,400
The first manager to be sacked
by the club since 1959.
108
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:24,919
When I was a kid, Liverpool
were one of the best teams in Europe.
109
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:26,639
Four European Cups.
110
00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:30,719
Liverpool are
European Champions for the fourth time.
111
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,359
We'd fell a long way from that.
112
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,880
We were not competing with the top teams.
113
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,279
Pulled back and it's put
in for an own goal! Despair for the Reds!
114
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:41,719
The league form was average,
cup form was average.
115
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,559
Performances were not very good.
116
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:45,360
Oh, that was wild.
117
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,879
And it's gone in!
Humiliating for Liverpool.
118
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,039
The team, there were
some players in there that you think,
119
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,959
"If Liverpool are going to win a trophy,
they have to change that player..."
120
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,399
You feel frustrated
that we're not winning.
121
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,399
Steven Gerrard
is sent off!
122
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,639
That was a challenge that...
123
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,039
perhaps shows the frustration
that he's been feeling.
124
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,400
Everybody would have
felt that frustration.
125
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:11,479
We'd fallen away.
How do we arrest the slide?
126
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,799
I grew up
on Liverpool dominating.
127
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:17,320
- Will they ever compete again at the top?
- You've got no chance.
128
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:21,359
I'm absolutely disgusted.
I've been crying this afternoon.
129
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,799
The Liverpool motto used to be,
"First is best and second's nothing."
130
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,719
I really do think that there needs
to be some new thinking at Anfield.
131
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,399
For the Liverpool players
at the England training camp,
132
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,680
the departure of the manager from Anfield
has been a major distraction.
133
00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:38,879
It was the topic of conversation
134
00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,880
amongst the Liverpool members
of the England squad here today.
135
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:49,439
I went to the tournament with
the hope of parking all the noise up
136
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:52,520
and focusing on the England team,
but it was impossible.
137
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,560
All of a sudden, we heard news that
a new manager had been appointed.
138
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,799
There was an element of excitement.
139
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,160
"I wonder what
this new manager's going to be like."
140
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,479
But also, "Where is the club going?"
141
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,799
The paper here in Liverpool
has the question on everyone's lips.
142
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,760
"Who's next to take over at Anfield?"
143
00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,439
We're very pleased to announce
that Rafael Benítez is joining us today
144
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,400
as manager, on a five-year contract.
145
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:24,679
At the club,
146
00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,519
there was a feeling
that we'd lost our way.
147
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:31,519
We had to make a change,
and the obvious place to start
148
00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:32,879
{\an8}is to look for somebody
149
00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:36,240
{\an8}who had a track record of winning
one of Europe's major leagues.
150
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:47,519
He has an outstanding track record.
151
00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:50,760
Two Spanish league titles in three years
I think speaks for itself.
152
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:53,839
Señor Benítez,
welcome to Anfield.
153
00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,119
- Thank you.
- Congratulations.
154
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,519
How important is it that you keep
155
00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,999
Liverpool's best players
that they have at the moment?
156
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:04,839
Because we had fallen away,
I was really concerned that
157
00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:07,439
we were going to lose
Michael Owen and Steven Gerrard,
158
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,239
demonstrably the best players in the club.
159
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,879
Steven was club captain.
160
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:14,119
Gerrard... Nice strike!
161
00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,240
Oh, he is a magnificent player!
162
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,679
Massive heart, great passion.
163
00:09:20,680 --> 00:09:25,640
Steven Gerrard... Great
effort! What a wonderful goal by Gerrard!
164
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,639
The embodiment
of what Liverpool was all about.
165
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,319
Owen... Great balance.
166
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:35,959
Gerrard! Three for Liverpool and
Michael Owen at the hub of it.
167
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,279
Michael, he'd been a star player.
168
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:40,640
European Footballer
of the Year.
169
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,799
He had immense pace,
great goalscorer.
170
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,920
Vaults the first challenge
and the second. Brilliant!
171
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:49,079
What a goal!
172
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:51,880
Michael Owen,
a goal machine.
173
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,119
If we were
to get back to winning ways,
174
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:58,759
we saw them as being
very much at the heart of the team.
175
00:09:58,760 --> 00:09:59,839
Gerrard...
176
00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,959
That's a brilliant ball! That's dazzling!
177
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,239
That Gerrard-Owen partnership once more!
178
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,600
How critical for your plans
is it that they stay?
179
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:15,120
I... I want to talk with them
about, uh, my ideas.
180
00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:20,160
- Okay? Thank you very much.
- Thank you very much. Thank you.
181
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,759
Rafa's first task
182
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:27,040
was to go to Portugal to make sure
that those key players stayed.
183
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,999
If the club are going to
hold on to their big stars in future,
184
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,079
they're going to have to start winning,
and keep winning,
185
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:39,239
to compete at the very highest level.
186
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,359
Meeting the new Liverpool manager
was important for me,
187
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,399
but it was more important
188
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,800
that Rafa Benítez was meeting
Steven Gerrard and Michael Owen.
189
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:52,000
They were very disillusioned
with what was going on at the club.
190
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:54,880
I'm thinking, I've only got one career.
191
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,599
I might have to
think about other alternatives
192
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,480
to try get the best out of my career.
193
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,639
The England players were talking
to me about it. "Come and sign for us."
194
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,840
People were knocking at my hotel door,
"Why don't you sign for us?"
195
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:10,119
I was thinking,
196
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,800
"I hope this manager has got the words
that these two want to hear."
197
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,999
- Spanish or English?
- Whichever feels natural.
198
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:19,840
Ready? Ah.
199
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:22,440
Okay?
200
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:27,160
Sound is fine, position is fine,
questions are fine?
201
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,999
{\an8}We were told he was
coming in to introduce himself.
202
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,599
He wanted to say hello and break the ice.
203
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,080
All of a sudden, we're going into a room...
204
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,159
I'm expecting this spiel of
205
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,879
how great players we are,
206
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,040
how he's going
to build this team around them...
207
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:48,760
and we got the opposite of that.
208
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,079
- Are you recording?
- Yes.
209
00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:52,720
Yeah. Now listen to me.
210
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,560
He started moving
Stevie about on this board.
211
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:01,839
He was on me, tactically.
"I don't want this, I don't want that."
212
00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:04,239
"This is a problem.
You need to change this."
213
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:05,879
"You run around too much."
214
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:09,120
"You can't play in this team
unless we trust you." It was intense.
215
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,479
I remember Rafa Benítez's
words to Michael were,
216
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,359
"You need to learn
to turn on the ball quicker."
217
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:20,839
Oh my word! I've never, ever had someone
saying anything like that to me before.
218
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,720
I was like...
219
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:28,679
That's absolutely what I was probably
the best in the world at, at the time.
220
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:31,080
I was thinking, "Oh no..."
221
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,679
I don't think
this is what he wants to hear.
222
00:12:34,680 --> 00:12:37,360
That's when we started thinking...
223
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:42,720
"This is different."
224
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:44,240
This was different.
225
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:47,039
It just felt different.
226
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,239
Really different.
227
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:49,759
Quite negative.
228
00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:51,359
And I was thinking to meself,
229
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,240
I guarantee you,
you'll need me before I need you.
230
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:56,520
He certainly...
231
00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:00,599
didn't go any way to convincing me
232
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,360
to stay, put it that way.
233
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,639
How did you
feel the meeting went?
234
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:09,439
You can see when you talk with someone
if he's, uh, happy with the conversation.
235
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:12,080
I think, yeah, they were...
They were quite happy.
236
00:13:13,680 --> 00:13:15,599
...and the Liverpool striker, Michael Owen,
237
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:17,839
is on his way to Spain's Real Madrid.
238
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:20,999
The player, once known
as Liverpool's boy wonder,
239
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,719
is leaving the club
he joined at the age of 11.
240
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,600
Good morning, everyone.
241
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,799
I'd like to say
a special thank you
242
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,560
for giving me the opportunity
to play for the best team in the world.
243
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,680
Thank you very much.
244
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:41,240
I can remember
finding it hard to actually say,
245
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,159
"Yes, I want to go."
246
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,240
Because, obviously,
I'd been at Liverpool all my life,
247
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:51,160
but I sort of thought I should.
248
00:13:51,680 --> 00:13:55,479
Real Madrid were
the most successful team in Europe,
249
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,959
and I think most people
250
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:03,320
will get lured
by the chance to win silverware.
251
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:05,639
News
of Michael Owen's departure
252
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,759
is just filtering
through to fans here at Anfield.
253
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,599
This really is
the end of an era.
254
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,639
For the last 13 years, Michael Owen's star
has shone brightly from this
255
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,199
most illustrious of football grounds.
256
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,519
What are we gonna do?
I just think it's just not good enough.
257
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,119
We seem to be going backwards.
258
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,919
The news will be a major blow
259
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:27,479
to both the Liverpool supporters and
to Michael Owen's now ex-teammates.
260
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,279
I felt frustrated.
261
00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:30,599
I was gutted.
262
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,959
But part of me understood it at the time,
263
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,359
but part of me hated it,
because I'm thinking,
264
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,080
if Michael goes, I'm further away
from where I want to go.
265
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:44,400
I wanted to win and I wanted Liverpool
to be successful, like when I grew up.
266
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:57,240
I was a tearaway kid
on a council estate.
267
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:03,079
From two, three, four years of age,
268
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,600
I'd be on a bit of waste ground, kicking
anything I could find that was round.
269
00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,359
Rolled-up socks, fruit...
270
00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:13,480
Coming in with gravel,
burns and blood all over me.
271
00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,960
I'd walk to school
thinking I was a football player.
272
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,599
I'd talk to meself about football players.
273
00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:30,560
And it was a real serious, scary obsession
for Liverpool Football Club.
274
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,440
The first time I sampled Anfield,
I was six, seven years of age.
275
00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,439
You just can't describe it.
It's just great, you know?
276
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:42,640
It's just fabulous!
277
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:46,879
Feeling love and passion.
278
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:48,320
Comes to Rush!
279
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:53,440
This is like a drug. This is good.
They're the moments that grab me.
280
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,399
And there it is,
the trophy of the season,
281
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,480
won by the English champions, Liverpool.
282
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,400
The legacy of the European Cups.
283
00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,760
I had exactly the same dreams
that I wanted to achieve.
284
00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:18,000
But when you don't feel
like that's possible...
285
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,440
it's frustrating.
286
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,879
That team wasn't good enough
to win the Champions League.
287
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,439
That team wasn't competitive
at domestic level.
288
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,599
It was miles away.
289
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,720
That's why Michael Owen left Liverpool.
290
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:38,679
Perched precariously
and intrigued,
291
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:42,400
Liverpool's fans have been using anything
to get a glimpse of their team this week,
292
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,280
as the squad gathered for
the first time ahead of the new season.
293
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:52,279
At the start of 2004, I was going
into the last year of my contract.
294
00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:55,320
{\an8}Liverpool was the love of my life.
295
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,080
I wanted to stay at Liverpool
for as long as I could.
296
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,160
Is someone making the picture?
297
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:06,840
{\an8}I need this picture for Instagram later.
298
00:17:08,120 --> 00:17:14,440
{\an8} I was 31
in the 2004/05 season.
299
00:17:16,360 --> 00:17:19,680
I'd been at Liverpool for three years.
300
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,600
But sometimes my focus would fail me.
301
00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,719
Oh, he's
dropped it, Dudek, and Forlan puts it in!
302
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,079
What a howler!
303
00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,599
I hated myself for that.
304
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,279
All you read in the newspaper
305
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,880
is how the coach
will definitely need a new goalkeeper.
306
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,040
{\an8}I hope people will understand me
with my French accent.
307
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,799
{\an8}I'd been in Liverpool for many years,
but me, personally,
308
00:17:49,800 --> 00:17:52,840
I was like in and out of the squad.
I didn't play that many games.
309
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,480
But when Rafa arrived, it was like
everybody started in the same spot.
310
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,080
So I'm thinking like, "Yes, okay,
maybe I have the opportunity to play."
311
00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:07,639
I've been part of
the Liverpool system for 13 years.
312
00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,039
{\an8}I'd gone from being sent out on loan
313
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:15,439
to suddenly now having a new manager
that I'm hoping wants to give me
314
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,960
that chance to play
and to showcase what I can do.
315
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,519
I was
a relatively unknown player.
316
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,439
{\an8}I played four reserve games,
scored ten goals.
317
00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:28,199
But there was rumors,
Rafa Benítez, he's been watching
318
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,599
a few reserve games.
319
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,679
So I was thinking,
"Okay. If he's watching them,
320
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:33,520
I've got a chance of being involved."
321
00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:37,079
When a new manager comes in,
322
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,240
you don't want to give him
an option not to pick you.
323
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,119
Especially when you want another contract,
324
00:18:43,120 --> 00:18:45,599
and you don't have
many good years ahead of you.
325
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,319
Didi Hamann
was one of my big mates.
326
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:54,399
Rafa would have been expecting
this stereotype, disciplined German.
327
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,320
And he was the opposite of that.
328
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:01,080
Yeah, I had the odd smoke
and I had the odd pint.
329
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:06,080
Smoked ten a day. Ten, 12 a day,
because I felt I needed it.
330
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:10,720
I don't think it affected me physically,
because if I felt it did,
331
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:12,799
uh, I would have stopped.
332
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:13,720
Easy as that.
333
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,839
When Didi Hamann would come in,
he'd drinking water of a morning,
334
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:23,480
that was code, for basically he's had
a few bevvies the night before.
335
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,359
I remember my first night out with Didi.
336
00:19:27,360 --> 00:19:29,679
He's only been at the club about a week.
337
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:32,799
We're having a great night out.
Time to go, but we can't get a taxi.
338
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,879
Didi said,
"I tell you what, I'll get you a taxi."
339
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,239
I'm thinking, "How the fuck's
he know how to get a taxi?"
340
00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:41,079
He just sprawled himself out
in the middle of the road.
341
00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:44,759
I said, "I'm just lying down on the road,
because otherwise nobody will stop."
342
00:19:44,760 --> 00:19:47,479
You can't get a cab, you want to get home,
you want to get to bed,
343
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,479
and you've got to train the next day.
344
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,159
So we get him in a taxi.
345
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,559
He's just about leaving,
the window's coming down,
346
00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:57,399
and he's got his head out the window,
and he's going, "Where do I live?"
347
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,760
I haven't got a clue, lad. I'm off.
348
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:08,520
So hopefully the new manager can sort
the players out and get that extra...
349
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,840
bit out of them, like.
350
00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:14,039
I think early,
Rafa was looking at the team,
351
00:20:14,040 --> 00:20:16,400
thinking, "This is not a quick fix."
352
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,599
When Liverpool came to sign me,
353
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,160
they told me, "We have to compete
against the best in Europe."
354
00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:25,759
But from day one,
355
00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,999
I could see that we didn't have
11 top-class players,
356
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,159
and we didn't have a top squad,
357
00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,919
so we have to compete
with them in another way.
358
00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,200
Training under Rafa,
it was a bit weird.
359
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:42,479
There'd be no ball,
360
00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:44,839
and there'd just be cones
all around the pitch,
361
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,439
and Rafa would say,
"Right, the ball's at cone A,
362
00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,319
the ball's at cone D,
the ball's at cone F,"
363
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,160
and we'd all have to
run to where we should be.
364
00:20:54,360 --> 00:20:57,119
It was completely different
to what I was used to.
365
00:20:57,120 --> 00:20:58,920
It felt very regimented.
366
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,679
And then he'd be looking at
all the players, and then he'd say,
367
00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:06,839
"You need to be two yards higher.
You need to be one yard further right."
368
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:08,759
"You need to be two yards inside."
369
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:12,960
He saw us as pawns on a chessboard,
or as numbers.
370
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:19,159
It was so unusual to work with
someone with such attention to detail.
371
00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:22,040
And everyone was thinking,
"Damn! Why are we doing this?"
372
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,479
I'm quite perfectionist,
so I like to go into details.
373
00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,159
I like to analyze things.
374
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,039
Just one centimeter higher or lower,
375
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:33,760
that is the difference between
success sometimes and defeat.
376
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:36,960
This has always been my way of life.
377
00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:43,200
As a little boy,
my dad gave me a notebook.
378
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:47,639
I'd spend a long time
thinking about things,
379
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:50,079
going over and over things in my head.
380
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,239
And I'd write down every line-up
in this notebook,
381
00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,840
from every game for my school team.
382
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,799
I'd write down stats, such as goals,
383
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,040
average ratings, shots on goal.
384
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:12,560
I started to analyze the movements
and characteristics of the game.
385
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:18,560
Without realizing it, I had
this way of perceiving football.
386
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,399
I'd then pass this on to the players,
387
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:25,320
to improve each player
and the team a bit more.
388
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,959
Small details make the difference.
389
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:34,120
With this in mind, you perfect your game.
390
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,039
Let the games begin!
391
00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:45,159
Welcome to Gillette Soccer Saturday,
on the first day of a brand-new season
392
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,120
after one of
the most dramatic summers on record.
393
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,400
I see myself next to the Stevie G.
394
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,600
I think it's fair to say the
start of that season under Rafa Benítez
395
00:22:58,440 --> 00:22:59,880
was a bit of a nightmare.
396
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,240
Good turn of speed... and
a great ball in. It must be. And it is!
397
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,080
One-nil Bolton Wanderers!
398
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,920
Giggs kicks, Silvestre again!
399
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:17,079
Liverpool's Spanish Inquisition
may be just about to begin.
400
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:18,919
Worst possible start.
401
00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,920
This is exactly what we didn't want.
402
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,639
{\an8} Another horror show,
devoid of quality, devoid of ideas,
403
00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,560
but the biggest criticism
was devoid of fight.
404
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,599
Oh,
Alonso's given it to Downing!
405
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:32,240
I remember that game, yeah.
406
00:23:32,880 --> 00:23:35,359
Middlesbrough
coming forward again.
407
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:37,639
Hasselbaink. He's found Zenden!
408
00:23:37,640 --> 00:23:39,320
That was a bad one, that.
409
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,679
Liverpool fans are leaving
before the end of the match.
410
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:43,880
They've seen enough.
411
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,760
They're wearing
the shirt. For God's sake, play for it!
412
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,120
It's Cole...
It's found a way in!
413
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,119
There's no passion,
there's no drive, it's hard to watch.
414
00:23:56,120 --> 00:23:57,960
Benítez needs to get a grip.
415
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:02,120
Crouch is unmarked.
Far post. Here he is!
416
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,560
Even Crouchy scored against us.
417
00:24:06,360 --> 00:24:07,840
That's how bad it was.
418
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,560
Wright-Phillips away.
419
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:17,880
Carragher's touch left Dudek
with something to do. It's Anelka!
420
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:19,599
Shit.
421
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,719
Another nightmare
game to forget
422
00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:23,880
for Liverpool's keeper, Jerzy Dudek.
423
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,079
Dudek is a complete waste
of space, and it's just not good enough.
424
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,920
This season was
the toughest in my football career.
425
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:35,519
Chaplow.
426
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,160
Oh God, this is the one.
427
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,240
Oh, it's an own goal!
428
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:47,120
Djimi Traoré's put through
his own net in comic style!
429
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,720
What was Traoré thinking of?
430
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,960
It was a great finish for the defender.
431
00:24:54,920 --> 00:25:00,520
Burnley, their first FA
Cup goal against Liverpool for 36 years.
432
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,279
I can't believe
how poor we were.
433
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,119
Liverpool were just absolutely awful.
434
00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:06,959
Even in Europe, we were really poor.
435
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:09,000
Very, very poor.
436
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,080
Liverpool are on the rack!
Oh, what a goal!
437
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,279
All of them players who
played last night were a waste of space.
438
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,239
I'm thinking to meself,
this couldn't be going any worse.
439
00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:21,320
Saviola!
440
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,920
In Europe, there's
an expectation from the Liverpool fans.
441
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:31,080
I felt all the emotions.
Worthless, useless, not good enough.
442
00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,039
No points,
443
00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:37,320
so Liverpool are taking
their European destiny right to the wire.
444
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:42,560
One more chance when Olympiacos come
to Anfield in a couple of weeks' time.
445
00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,439
There were times
when you thought,
446
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,880
will we ever get back to being a big club?
447
00:25:58,800 --> 00:26:01,719
I can't remember
for a long time seeing them play that bad.
448
00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:04,639
There's no passion,
there's no desire. It's rubbish.
449
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:08,399
I really do care
about Liverpool so badly.
450
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,120
See, it hurts.
It's like a physical pain with me.
451
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,719
It can be tough mentally
when things aren't going well.
452
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,919
You can feel the emotions in the city.
453
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,319
Could we show a bit of passion?
Could we show a little commitment?
454
00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:24,560
We've got emotional
football clubs. It's an emotional city.
455
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,760
And the people in it are emotional.
456
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:30,439
He should've been apologizing
to the Liverpool fans there last night.
457
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:34,199
The team is not playing football
the way Liverpool usually play football.
458
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:36,480
No fight, no soul, no passion.
459
00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,200
When
I joined Liverpool,
460
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,880
there was a culture based on emotion.
461
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,200
Football requires more than that.
462
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:53,480
If you're really emotional,
you don't find the way to success.
463
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:55,399
Stratego!
464
00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:57,039
It's Stratego,
465
00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,959
Milton Bradley's
terrific game of strategy for two.
466
00:26:59,960 --> 00:27:01,959
Fast, easy to play, and exciting...
467
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:05,440
As a child,
my father bring me the game, Stratego.
468
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,680
In Spain at this time,
it was the only one.
469
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,159
In the summer,
we're going to the mountains in Madrid.
470
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:17,359
We have competitions
between all our friends.
471
00:27:17,360 --> 00:27:20,319
I had a schoolmate that was very good.
472
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,479
And I lost one day and I was so upset.
473
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:25,720
I was crying at home, in my room.
474
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:31,200
Defeat teaches you
much more than victory.
475
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,080
And I started to realize
476
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:40,160
it's more important to play
with your head than with your heart.
477
00:27:42,760 --> 00:27:44,080
I didn't lose again.
478
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,680
You've got to teach your players
479
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,720
you must play with your head
and not just your heart.
480
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,280
Me game,
it was about emotion.
481
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:08,039
Passion, desire, commitment.
482
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:11,599
For the badge,
for the bird, for the family.
483
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:12,879
It was in me,
484
00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:17,480
and I felt like he wanted to
really remodel me and change me.
485
00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:20,720
Nothing would ever satisfy him.
486
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,879
I like being
demanding of my players.
487
00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:26,759
I think that's the key.
488
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:29,600
Success comes from this.
489
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:33,359
I felt like
he didn't rate me,
490
00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:35,799
he didn't trust me, he didn't want me.
491
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,719
I've always been clear
that I want to be a Liverpool player,
492
00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:40,400
and a Liverpool player only.
493
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,360
But with that doubt
and with that coldness,
494
00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:51,279
and being part of a team where you don't
believe you can compete at the top,
495
00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,760
that's when your head gets turned.
496
00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,439
Steven Gerrard's name
is being linked
497
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,759
with a move away from his hometown club.
498
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,559
If they lost a player like Gerrard,
499
00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,999
they would have to accept
they're no longer a big club.
500
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:06,560
From his point of view,
501
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,359
if he wants to become
a top-rated international,
502
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,719
he has to be playing at the highest level,
and he isn't at Liverpool.
503
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,239
Gerrard wants to play regularly
at a world level.
504
00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:19,160
That means Champions League
and playing the Champions League final.
505
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,639
The countdown to Liverpool's
must-win Champions League game
506
00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:28,919
has well and truly begun.
507
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,999
Only a win against Greek side
Olympiacos at Anfield
508
00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,039
will guarantee progress.
509
00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,199
It's been
a chill winter for Liverpool.
510
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:38,399
Seventh in the league,
they're not scoring goals.
511
00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,879
They need goals tonight.
512
00:29:39,880 --> 00:29:42,599
They're playing
for their Champions League lives.
513
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,279
It was a massive game.
514
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,360
The only thing that was keeping us going
515
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:48,560
was the Champions League.
516
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,279
Liverpool have
already lost to Olympiacos in Greece.
517
00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,159
They are third in their section.
518
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,199
Victory alone might not be
enough to get Liverpool into the last 16.
519
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,120
They need to win and win well.
520
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:02,479
We had to win by two clear goals.
521
00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:03,720
Winning wasn't enough.
522
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:06,720
And then the headlines before the game
523
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,680
really ramped up the pressure on us.
524
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,999
I haven't been happy
with the progression of the club
525
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:16,279
over the last two years,
526
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,039
and for the first time in me career
I've really thought about,
527
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:21,160
you know, the possibility of moving on.
528
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:24,319
I love playing in the Champions League,
but so do the other boys
529
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:27,039
and we realize how crucial
it is for the football club
530
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:28,560
and for ourselves individually.
531
00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:32,080
I want to play Champions League football,
it's as simple as that.
532
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,639
We're just about ready for
the start of this Champions League match.
533
00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,880
All important,
it has to be a win for Liverpool.
534
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:45,560
Success in Europe
means so much to the fans.
535
00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,160
It is part of the heritage,
part of the soul of this club.
536
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,559
Rafa Benítez has decided
to change his goalkeeper.
537
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,480
Jerzy Dudek on the bench
on this crucial night for Liverpool.
538
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:04,679
Knowing I wasn't playing
was difficult to accept.
539
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,120
It was so important for me
to be the number one keeper.
540
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:11,360
It was in my DNA.
541
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,720
So it really affected me mentally.
542
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:27,400
Plan was
to start well, get the fans with us...
543
00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:31,360
get ourselves in front.
544
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:40,279
Rivaldo.
545
00:31:40,280 --> 00:31:42,079
But then all of a sudden...
546
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:44,480
Still Rivaldo.
Still Rivaldo!
547
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:57,880
This looks tailor-made
for Rivaldo's Brazilian brilliance.
548
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,199
There it goes.
Played it low and Kirkland was nowhere!
549
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,080
It was hit low and into the net!
550
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,440
What a disaster for Liverpool.
551
00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,800
And Liverpool will now have to score
at least three goals.
552
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:24,600
There is the half-time whistle,
and it ain't going Liverpool's way.
553
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:27,560
At that moment,
554
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,799
I thought Steven Gerrard's
leaving Liverpool Football Club.
555
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,640
It's going to take
an enormous effort for Liverpool now.
556
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:39,720
When things
are going badly,
557
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,439
if players are crestfallen
and resigned to their fate,
558
00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,960
you've got to provide them
with a solution.
559
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:50,400
Stratego, a strategy game
from Milton Bradley.
560
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,759
Rafa Benítez has never been
frightened to make changes.
561
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,319
His changes tonight
have been surprise ones.
562
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:59,919
The youngsters, Sinama-Pongolle
and Neil Mellor.
563
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:03,199
Do you think these are gonna
be the players that turn it round for us?
564
00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:04,480
No, not really.
565
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:09,520
The nervousness, it's hard not to
really feel it as a young player.
566
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:11,719
We've got to score three goals.
567
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:16,759
The whistle goes
for the start of the second half.
568
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,199
The odds heavily stacked
against Liverpool.
569
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,199
It is going to take a superhuman effort.
570
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,599
Sinama-Pongolle turns infield.
571
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:27,719
Sinama-Pongolle still going,
but the pass doesn't find Kewell.
572
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:30,800
Any substitution
is a risk.
573
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:34,440
- Gerrard.
- What a ball.
574
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:38,439
The roar was for
Mellor ending up on the deck.
575
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:44,160
If it works, you're a genius.
If it doesn't, you've made a mistake.
576
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,319
You're having doubts
that naturally come in
577
00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,559
because we didn't have an incredible team.
578
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,079
You're thinking, is there enough goals
in this team where we're gonna progress?
579
00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:54,999
We need three.
580
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:03,239
Kewell,
kicks on the defender.
581
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,759
Goes past into the penalty area.
582
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:08,080
Kewell drags it across.
Sinama-Pongolle scores!
583
00:34:08,600 --> 00:34:13,440
That is just what they and Anfield wanted.
It's one-one.
584
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:17,000
So, they need
two more without reply.
585
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:23,439
There's a chance.
Carragher goes down. No penalty kick.
586
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:26,439
Then Pongolle crosses.
Chance here. Finnan hits it goalwards.
587
00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,079
Stabbed into the net.
Liverpool have scored.
588
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,560
And Neil Mellor has got the goal.
589
00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,600
But this might not matter.
We need to score another goal.
590
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:37,560
Ten minutes to go.
591
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,999
It's wave after wave of attack.
592
00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,320
And it's nervous
for everyone inside Anfield.
593
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:46,560
Emotions are
just oozing out me body.
594
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:51,799
Every counter-press, every forward pass,
595
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,720
you can hear the crowd coming.
596
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,119
That's when you feel the pull.
597
00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,080
That is a magical feeling.
598
00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:00,400
Carragher.
599
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:03,160
Me game...
600
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:05,640
it was about love.
601
00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:08,400
It was about passion.
602
00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:13,079
Gerrard!
603
00:35:13,080 --> 00:35:15,119
You beauty!
604
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,160
What a hit, son! What a hit!
605
00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:24,719
Simply magnificent!
It was a screaming half-foot volley!
606
00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:26,080
Fantastic!
607
00:35:27,720 --> 00:35:30,560
Liverpool three, Olympiacos one.
608
00:35:31,160 --> 00:35:32,759
Steven Gerrard.
609
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:35,479
You cannot imagine Liverpool without him.
610
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:41,000
Will a place in the last 16
be enough to persuade him to stay?
611
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,079
What does tonight mean
to him in terms of his
612
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:46,519
decision whether to stay or leave?
613
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:50,160
I don't think one night of football
at Anfield would be enough.
614
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:58,519
Steven Gerrard is Liverpool's captain
and he is Liverpool's inspiration.
615
00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:00,240
But for how much longer?
616
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,159
His recent performances for Liverpool
have now caught the attention
617
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:07,159
of football's biggest spenders, Chelsea.
618
00:36:08,560 --> 00:36:11,119
This morning's papers claim
that the Liverpool skipper
619
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:17,680
is ready to accept a move to Chelsea
with wages worth £125,000 a week.
620
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,520
It's the team
that Abramovich bought.
621
00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,479
Lampard strikes!
Oh, and Lampard scores!
622
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:28,360
£76 million worth of talent
recruited to West London.
623
00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:31,039
José Mourinho has taken Chelsea
to another level.
624
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,640
I think I'm a special one.
625
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,799
This was the club everybody
was talking about in European football,
626
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,480
and they wanted to buy
the best players in England and Europe.
627
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:42,920
And Stevie was both of them.
628
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:48,759
Chelsea is always
with the eyes in the top place.
629
00:36:48,760 --> 00:36:52,839
Steven is a fantastic player
and he's doing so well.
630
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,720
I had calls off Chelsea,
and me agent had calls.
631
00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,279
Mourinho was on the phone,
the best manager in the world at the time,
632
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,560
offering silly contracts,
which would naturally turn your head.
633
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,519
Chelsea were spending fortunes.
634
00:37:05,520 --> 00:37:07,359
There was guaranteed success there.
635
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,560
Everybody expects them now to go
and win the Champions League.
636
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,479
On Liverpool,
do you think Gerrard will go?
637
00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:17,599
If those figures,
£150,000 a week, are true,
638
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:20,439
it's extremely difficult
for a player to say,
639
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,919
"I'm not going to move
from this club to that club."
640
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:27,519
I can't park my relationship up with
Liverpool, the feeling, it's impossible.
641
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:30,400
But you want to be as
successful as you can.
642
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:32,439
So when they came,
643
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,520
I didn't know which way to go.
644
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,079
Liverpool fans
are kidding themselves
645
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,239
if they think
he's not going to go to Chelsea.
646
00:37:39,240 --> 00:37:41,559
I've supported
Liverpool for 25 years.
647
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,959
Steven Gerrard, if you're listening,
you're the captain of our great club.
648
00:37:44,960 --> 00:37:46,319
You're a Liverpool-born lad.
649
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,560
If you's going to walk,
that's an absolute disgrace, my mate.
650
00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:53,520
Mentally, I was in a bad place.
Me head was like a box of frogs.
651
00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:58,039
Outside Liverpool's training
ground, supporters were making their plea.
652
00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,639
Stevie probably needed
an arm round his shoulder then.
653
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:04,159
Checking how he was,
telling him how great he is.
654
00:38:04,160 --> 00:38:07,920
But Rafa Benítez was never going
to do that. He's very unemotional.
655
00:38:10,720 --> 00:38:11,879
As a coach,
656
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:14,839
if your best player
is thinking about to leave,
657
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,639
you have to try to understand
the reason why and then to convince him
658
00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:21,479
that we could do something
in a different way.
659
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,999
I'm not very, very emotional outside, no?
660
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,199
So, the only way that I had, uh...
661
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:31,160
Or I could do that is working harder.
662
00:38:31,720 --> 00:38:34,040
We make
videos of all the games,
663
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,240
and we analyze everything
that happens on the pitch.
664
00:38:37,840 --> 00:38:40,039
We want to correct a lot of things.
665
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:42,359
Football is an emotional sport.
666
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:46,119
But as a coach, you've always
got to be focused on your job,
667
00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:49,879
and not waste a lot of energy
on the noise around you.
668
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,439
Rafa was fanatical,
morning, noon and night,
669
00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,680
talking tactics,
talking the game, talking players.
670
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,520
Whenever I spoke to Rafa,
it was just purely football.
671
00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,400
So, who knows
about football a little bit?
672
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,119
Can we take this out?
673
00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:06,959
Football, football, football.
674
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:10,320
Two strikers, two players defending.
675
00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:12,039
Where is the gap?
676
00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:14,399
Man-to-man, you have to be like that.
Body position.
677
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,799
It's almost like
that's all he knew.
678
00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:18,119
Can you defend him?
679
00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:20,559
- No.
- Because I am blocking you.
680
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:22,519
You can cross him
on the corridor,
681
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,919
you can cross him on the kitchen.
682
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:28,399
Everything you find, he would talk
about football, move piece, move things.
683
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,879
So how many do we have? Dos, cuatro, seis.
684
00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,599
And these players,
they have some freedom to move around.
685
00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,760
- Obsessive?
- Yeah, massively obsessive.
686
00:39:38,120 --> 00:39:40,879
They thought
I was crazy. But I knew that
687
00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:45,279
my way of working and doing things
688
00:39:45,280 --> 00:39:47,120
has led me to success.
689
00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,040
Benítez,
always instructing.
690
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:54,840
Super pass, onside, goal!
691
00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:58,480
Hamann.
692
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,799
Oh, it is!
693
00:40:00,800 --> 00:40:02,799
We were starting
to build something.
694
00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:04,520
Getting more used to the manager.
695
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,199
Every system is what I was doing
when I was taking the notes.
696
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,800
This is when I was 19 years old.
All my training sessions.
697
00:40:12,400 --> 00:40:16,079
Gerrard goes again. García!
Liverpool have got the goal!
698
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:19,279
It started to click with everyone,
his way he was thinking football.
699
00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:24,639
Liverpool are cruising into
the last 8 of the UEFA Champions League.
700
00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:27,559
Players who don't believe
in what you're going to do,
701
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:29,520
you've got to give them belief.
702
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,880
I thought, we're on the right path here.
703
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:39,440
Luis García... tries his luck.
Oh, what a goal!
704
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:42,600
What a goal, what a night!
705
00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:47,079
One of the most mature
and accomplished performances here
706
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,960
by an English team in Europe
that I've seen in many, many years.
707
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,039
As performances improved,
708
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:57,800
the players started to believe
we could achieve something big.
709
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,040
Seconds to go.
Hang on to everything, folks.
710
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:05,319
It's all over! Liverpool are in
the semi-final of the Champions League.
711
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,319
A tremendous performance from Liverpool,
712
00:41:07,320 --> 00:41:09,440
who can scarcely believe
what they've achieved.
713
00:41:11,760 --> 00:41:14,879
In the back of my mind,
certainly for every Liverpool supporter,
714
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,159
that season was how important this was
715
00:41:17,160 --> 00:41:19,240
to have a good chance
of keeping our captain.
716
00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:27,799
In football, there'll be
an all-English semi-final
717
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:29,079
in the Champions League,
718
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:31,080
as Liverpool will play Chelsea.
719
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,519
Oh no.
720
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,159
Chelsea are the champions!
721
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:39,359
Never has
the Barclays English Premier League
722
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,680
had more deserving champions.
723
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:45,480
{\an8} Chelsea were
the best team in the country.
724
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:48,200
Their season couldn't be going better.
725
00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:50,679
♪ Campeones! ♪
726
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:55,239
♪ Campeones! Olé, olé, olé! ♪
727
00:41:55,240 --> 00:41:58,120
There was added significance
in the fact that,
728
00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:02,200
for the last six months,
they'd been trying to buy our captain,
729
00:42:02,720 --> 00:42:04,360
and not being shy about it.
730
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,439
There was an arrogance to Chelsea.
731
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:16,320
They've got Abramovich's money,
superstar players from all over the world,
732
00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,799
and they've got cocky Mourinho,
733
00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,840
and they basically fancy themselves.
734
00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,039
It's very good
to be in the semi-final.
735
00:42:26,040 --> 00:42:29,360
I'm a lucky guy.
I never lost a semi-final in my life.
736
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:32,519
I arrived here with my ego...
737
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:33,880
...big!
738
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,920
Now it's even higher!
739
00:42:45,240 --> 00:42:47,399
Nothing to separate
Liverpool and Chelsea
740
00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:48,959
going into this second leg.
741
00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,040
It will be decided at Anfield tonight.
742
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,519
The Reds are the underdogs
against an all-conquering Chelsea,
743
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,959
who've already beaten Rafa Benítez's
side three times this season.
744
00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:08,599
This was big for the club,
745
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:11,400
it was big for us as a team,
but it was big for me.
746
00:43:12,320 --> 00:43:15,879
Obviously, because I was linked to Chelsea
and the conversations with Mourinho,
747
00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:20,680
because I knew the fans weren't happy,
I wanted to be on the winning side.
748
00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:26,599
They always say semi-finals
are the very worst games to lose.
749
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,319
You can see the tension on all the faces.
750
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,080
Jerzy Dudek there only just recalled
to the Liverpool team.
751
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:36,319
Rafa came to me
and said...
752
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:38,320
''Jerzy,
you're back in business.''
753
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,400
I just told myself,
''You are ready.''
754
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:45,919
You can definitely feel the tension.
755
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:51,040
Everyone could feel it.
Rafa, the players, the fans.
756
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:55,279
Rafa had a real focus on Mourinho.
757
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:58,680
He was the one that he wanted to beat
more than any other.
758
00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,319
Did you personally
want to beat Jose?
759
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,119
What I wanted
was just to win.
760
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,480
I wanted to win for Liverpool.
761
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:10,360
And then because it was Chelsea,
762
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,639
and Mourinho was coach...
763
00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,200
It's extra motivation, for sure.
764
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,279
Tonight,
the fight to a finish.
765
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:27,320
Either Liverpool or Chelsea
will be Champions League finalists.
766
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:37,679
It was a cauldron.
767
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,839
It was a concoction
of all different emotions.
768
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:43,360
It wasn't just about getting behind
Liverpool, it was about stopping Chelsea.
769
00:44:44,920 --> 00:44:46,240
You feel the atmosphere.
770
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:50,000
But you have to be patient, like in chess.
771
00:44:58,520 --> 00:44:59,480
Riise.
772
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,960
Gerrard with space.
Lands it towards Baroš.
773
00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:10,880
Was it across the line?
774
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:14,399
Goal!
775
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:26,000
Was it a goal?
776
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,480
I don't know,
but I actually hope it wasn't.
777
00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:35,800
Because I know it gets under the skin.
778
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:38,680
But was it a goal?
779
00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:41,600
Very, very tight.
780
00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:47,640
The reality is
that the goal was given. And that's that.
781
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,200
Lampard
this time. Oh, really good save by Dudek.
782
00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:03,359
And everyone,
they knew exactly what they had to do.
783
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:05,439
Play with that, not with that.
784
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,639
Terrific challenge,
this time by Gerrard.
785
00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:09,560
We were organized, we were solid.
786
00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,800
What a tackle
by Jamie Carragher!
787
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:17,760
It just felt like everything
we'd worked on just came together.
788
00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:23,760
Liverpool stand on the brink
of the European Cup final.
789
00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:29,600
All they can do is just sing
their hearts out, will their team home.
790
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:40,279
The time has come
for Liverpool to play
791
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,159
in yet another European Cup final.
792
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:47,479
Rafa Benítez and his team
have rolled back the years.
793
00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:49,800
It's just like the old days.
794
00:46:54,360 --> 00:46:58,280
Even though they had all
the money, the players, and José Mourinho.
795
00:47:00,160 --> 00:47:01,760
But they didn't have our history.
796
00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:03,640
The city.
797
00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:05,560
Anfield.
798
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,399
Steven Gerrard,
would he even consider
799
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,760
leaving a club that had
just reached a European Cup final?
800
00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:22,160
A club that is in his blood.
801
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,319
♪ Bye-bye, Mourinho! ♪
802
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:31,919
♪ Bye-bye, Mourinho! ♪
803
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:37,559
♪ Rafa, Rafael! Rafa, Rafael!
Rafael Benítez! ♪
804
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:39,959
There was such
a buzz at the end of the game,
805
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:43,279
because we couldn't quite believe
what had just happened, really.
806
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,800
Everyone's going to town,
everyone's going out.
807
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,839
And Rafa Benítez's assistant said,
808
00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:55,639
"If anyone comes in tonight before four
in the morning, you're getting fined."
809
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:59,719
Rafa almost made out that
he wasn't too aware of it, shall we say,
810
00:47:59,720 --> 00:48:01,839
so it came from the assistant.
811
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:03,919
But I'm sure Rafa Benítez was well aware
812
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:06,719
that none of us did come
in before four in the morning.
813
00:48:06,720 --> 00:48:08,959
In travel agents
across the city,
814
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:13,800
they're frantically trying to find
fans flights to the final in Istanbul.
815
00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:27,200
We've arrived
at John Lennon Airport at last.
816
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:30,679
More than 30,000 Liverpool fans
are expected in Istanbul
817
00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,279
for their Champions League final,
818
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,959
as they take on the favorites, AC Milan.
819
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:37,999
It'll be their team's
biggest match in 20 years.
820
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,279
This is the best ever.
821
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,039
Fifth in the league,
and we could be European Champions.
822
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:43,319
Unbelievable.
823
00:48:43,320 --> 00:48:48,719
And Liverpool are going to lift
the cup for the fifth time!
824
00:48:48,720 --> 00:48:49,880
Come on, the Redmen.
825
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:51,839
In confident mood,
826
00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:54,319
another planeload
makes its way through the terminal
827
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:58,920
in what is the biggest and busiest event
in the airport's 72-year history.
828
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:02,439
Just wanna get there. Can't wait.
We're gonna lift the cup. That'll be it.
829
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:05,599
This club's been built
on Champions League and European Cups.
830
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:09,119
No other British club can compare. We're
gonna bring it home, hopefully, tonight.

00:49:37,560 --> 00:49:41,919
Planes, trains, trams, buses...
Even the odd long-distance taxi.
840
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:50,439
The streets of Istanbul
are now beginning to cram with people.
841
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:53,320
There are now no hotels left in the city.
842
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:56,320
Oh, it's marvelous! This is the best.
843
00:49:57,160 --> 00:50:00,879
Supporters on a pilgrimage
to see their team in Turkey.
844
00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:03,160
To hope their heroes can win.
845
00:50:07,320 --> 00:50:09,120
Come on, you can do it!
846
00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:14,919
The closer
you get to the game,
847
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,480
the more I was convincing myself
that we could win.
848
00:50:18,120 --> 00:50:20,120
But it was almost this realization...
849
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,599
We're playing the best team in the world,
AC Milan.
850
00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:35,520
When you go through the team,
you can't help but laugh.
851
00:50:37,040 --> 00:50:39,119
Because it is just a who's who.
852
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:40,880
Name after name after name.
853
00:50:42,680 --> 00:50:46,880
They've got Ancelotti, the greatest
Champions League manager of all time.
854
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:52,160
Maldini, one of the greatest defenders
the game has ever seen.
855
00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:53,680
Ever.
856
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:58,960
Jaap Stam, a man mountain, who's
already won the Champions League before.
857
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:04,280
Clarence Seedorf, who had already won
the European Cup with two other clubs.
858
00:51:04,880 --> 00:51:09,679
Gattuso, who had won
the Champions League with AC Milan.
859
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:13,919
And then they had Shevchenko,
who was the best striker in the world,
860
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:16,760
and arguably the best player
in the world at that time.
861
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,680
They're not just world-class players.
862
00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:22,160
Some of the greatest players of all time.
863
00:51:25,800 --> 00:51:29,439
We are feeling great.
We have achieved the objective
864
00:51:29,440 --> 00:51:32,039
we set ourselves
at the beginning of the season.
865
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:35,999
Being here in Istanbul for the final.
866
00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,719
Do you know
how to score against Liverpool
867
00:51:38,720 --> 00:51:41,679
and how to beat, Jerzy Dudek,
Polish goalkeeper?
868
00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,959
Yes, we know exactly how to do that.
869
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:46,920
So tell me. Tell me how.
870
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:48,840
Tomorrow you'll see.
871
00:51:56,880 --> 00:51:58,439
{\an8} It's well past midnight here,
872
00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:03,080
{\an8}but there are still thousands of Liverpool
supporters around this one square.
873
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:05,639
{\an8}Whatever happens on the pitch,
874
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:09,439
it seems Liverpool's fans have
come here intent on enjoying themselves.
875
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,960
{\an8}
876
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:18,800
I can't sleep, because...
877
00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,280
tomorrow is the European Cup final.
878
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:25,360
{\an8}
879
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,439
The excitement
is building here.
880
00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:38,199
With just hours to go before
881
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:41,199
Liverpool's biggest European game
for 20 years.
882
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:45,280
Can Liverpool write their way
back into the history books?
883
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:51,720
Before we left for the stadium,
Rafa showed us a video.
884
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:56,039
It was all the European Cup wins
885
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:58,480
of Liverpool in the '70s and '80s.
886
00:52:59,920 --> 00:53:02,319
The European Cup
surely is won.
887
00:53:02,320 --> 00:53:04,640
Bruce Grobbelaar again,
antics on the line.
888
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:06,559
Missed it!
889
00:53:06,560 --> 00:53:09,479
Liverpool are European Champions!
890
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:11,000
For the fourth time.
891
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:12,919
What joy!
892
00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:14,959
Merseyside is jubilant.
893
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:18,600
When you initially
join a team, in this case Liverpool,
894
00:53:19,200 --> 00:53:22,240
you learn things as you go.
895
00:53:22,800 --> 00:53:25,279
And I started to realize what it means
896
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:29,920
for the fans, for the city,
and the emotions behind it all.
897
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:36,800
It touches you deep inside.
You want to do something for the city.
898
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:40,759
That's the special connection.
899
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:42,920
The fans and the history is the club.
900
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,799
Being from Liverpool
as a Scouser,
901
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:50,159
when you see that,
you want a bit of that yourself.
902
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:52,119
You want to make your mark.
903
00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,160
You want to be able
to give people that hope and belief.
904
00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:04,040
Part of our responsibility
is to make people feel pride.
905
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:09,280
When it was finished, we said,
"It's our turn to make history."
906
00:54:21,800 --> 00:54:23,520
Listen to this atmosphere.
907
00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,319
They're really going
to make themselves heard tonight.
908
00:54:40,160 --> 00:54:42,399
Looking up,
it's just Liverpool everywhere.
909
00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:43,680
A sea of red.
910
00:54:47,440 --> 00:54:50,560
It's just about being laser-focused,
getting ready to go into battle.
911
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:57,719
So many moments of weakness
and so much criticism,
912
00:54:57,720 --> 00:55:03,480
but here came an opportunity
to change everything.
913
00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:06,479
We're about
to get underway here.
914
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:11,560
Liverpool against AC Milan, the final of
the 2005 Champions League in Istanbul.
915
00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:21,080
Here comes
the most important night of my life.
916
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:27,240
This was our chance to create history.
917
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,720
Liverpool begin,
and will look to start well here.
918
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:38,360
Traoré, nearside the field,
and that was a very shaky ball from him.
919
00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:42,559
Twenty-one years
waiting for this moment.
920
00:55:42,560 --> 00:55:44,600
I said, "Don't make mistakes."
921
00:55:45,200 --> 00:55:47,839
Kaká. Across comes Traoré.
922
00:55:47,840 --> 00:55:50,840
And the referee gives a free kick
early on here to Milan.
923
00:55:54,240 --> 00:55:56,199
First test for Jerzy Dudek.
924
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:58,560
In goes the free kick
and the shot into the goal!
925
00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:03,999
Maldini! A minute maybe,
only, of the game!
926
00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:06,880
It's a wretched,
wretched start for Liverpool.
927
00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:14,199
There's five or six players
in the Liverpool team
928
00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:17,440
who haven't touched the ball,
and AC Milan are one-nil up.
929
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:25,440
The first thing
is not to concede a second one.
930
00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:28,479
Milan, on the break here.
931
00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,160
Here's Shevchenko.
Shevchenko crosses. It's two-nil.
932
00:56:39,080 --> 00:56:40,560
This is slipping away,
933
00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:43,080
with the whole world watching.
934
00:56:44,480 --> 00:56:45,999
Kaká. On towards Crespo.
935
00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:49,120
Crespo's through. This could be three-nil!
And it is three-nil!
936
00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,239
It's been a shocking
half for Liverpool. Absolutely shocking.
937
00:56:58,240 --> 00:57:00,999
They're absolutely
all over the place.
938
00:57:01,000 --> 00:57:03,040
At three-nil, it is over.
939
00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,959
There is
the half-time whistle.
940
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:10,720
No chance really for Liverpool.
941
00:57:13,800 --> 00:57:15,560
I'm numb inside.
942
00:57:20,800 --> 00:57:23,560
You felt embarrassed
to look up to the supporters.
943
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,560
We were going to create history
for all the wrong reasons.
944
00:57:37,080 --> 00:57:39,239
When you're losing
three-nil at half-time,
945
00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:41,959
if it's any other game, there'll be words.
946
00:57:41,960 --> 00:57:44,600
There was none of that,
it was just silence.
947
00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:57,799
I was just in a daze, I think we all were,
948
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,240
trying to take all in
what had just happened.
949
00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:08,640
I feel ashamed of the performance
of myself and the team.
950
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:12,959
But then, commotion does kick in.
951
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:17,359
There's a bit of emotion. "You should be
doing this. You should've had him."
952
00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:19,359
Arguing and fighting, and,
953
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:22,319
"It's your fault. You're not doing this,
you're not doing that."
954
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,280
It was clear
that the team was distraught.
955
00:58:25,800 --> 00:58:31,640
I hear them, but I'm focused
on what I have to do now.
956
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:34,760
We have 15 minutes to change things.
957
00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:38,759
Rafa tells Djimi Traoré
that he's coming off.
958
00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:40,520
He said, "Traoré, shower."
959
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:42,080
"Traoré, shower."
960
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:45,119
For me, it was like, game is finished.
Over.
961
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:48,480
He's devastated. He's been brought
off in the biggest game of his life.
962
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:50,559
Djimi goes for his shower.
963
00:58:50,560 --> 00:58:55,159
Didi Hamann gets sent out to warm up,
because he's coming on at half-time.
964
00:58:55,160 --> 00:58:57,079
My first reaction was,
965
00:58:57,080 --> 00:58:59,199
"What am I meant to do now, Rafa?"
966
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,519
We're three-nil down against the World XI.
967
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:05,119
The chances of coming back
are next to nothing.
968
00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:07,519
But I went outside, I start warming up,
969
00:59:07,520 --> 00:59:10,679
and the last thing I see
is Djimi taking his kit off
970
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:12,720
and walking naked to the shower.
971
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:17,559
I'm two hands against the wall,
you know, just thinking.
972
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:19,920
I'm so disappointed with myself.
973
00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:24,519
I knew I let down, not only like
my teammates, but the football club.
974
00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,520
So I was like very, very
in the dark place, mentally.
975
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:31,840
So,
after Djimi goes for his shower,
976
00:59:32,880 --> 00:59:35,079
the physio tells Rafa that Steve Finnan,
977
00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,760
one of our defenders,
was injured and couldn't continue.
978
00:59:39,360 --> 00:59:41,680
I just remember a little pause from Rafa.
979
00:59:43,160 --> 00:59:45,360
And he just said, "Finnan, shower."
980
00:59:46,160 --> 00:59:48,840
And then there's another pause from Rafa.
981
00:59:49,600 --> 00:59:52,879
"Traoré, out the shower."
982
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:55,080
Rafa came, and said, "Djimi, you're in."
983
00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:59,399
I was saying, like, "What do you mean?"
"Come on. Let's go back. You in."
984
00:59:59,400 --> 01:00:03,000
Djimi comes back out, has to get changed
again, put all his kit back on.
985
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:05,640
Didi Hamann comes back in.
986
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:08,239
I'll never forget,
I went back to the dressing room,
987
01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:10,879
and the first person I saw
was Djimi Traoré,
988
01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:13,159
who just walked in the shower.
989
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:15,879
I said, "I'm coming on." He said,
"Who's coming off?" "I don't know."
990
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:19,959
I've got no idea what's going on.
991
01:00:19,960 --> 01:00:21,719
A little bit of chaos.
992
01:00:21,720 --> 01:00:23,679
It was chaotic. Yeah, it was.
993
01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:29,320
Rafa started
scribbling on the whiteboard.
994
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:31,879
We need to find solutions.
995
01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:35,320
And I was thinking about
how to find a solution.
996
01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:41,240
In a situation of that magnitude,
you need more than tactics.
997
01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:48,160
You hear the referee knocking
on the door, calling you for the 2nd half.
998
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:53,040
Everything went,
like, crazy. "Go back."
999
01:00:53,640 --> 01:00:56,240
It was happening so fast
that I could barely follow.
1000
01:00:57,400 --> 01:00:59,439
Your mind's
just all over the place.
1001
01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,680
I've still got no idea what's going on.
1002
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:07,320
Going out in that second half, there was
a fear. "This could be pretty horrific."
1003
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:14,199
But I'll never forget,
1004
01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:17,720
in the tunnel coming out,
you could hear the supporters...
1005
01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:22,519
singing, "You'll Never Walk Alone."
1006
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:27,039
♪ Walk on, walk on ♪
1007
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:31,999
♪ With hope in your heart ♪
1008
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:39,080
♪ And you'll never walk alone ♪
1009
01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:42,400
It was
almost sang like a hymn.
1010
01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:50,520
Normally, if you are three-nil
down, fans will never sing for you.
1011
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:55,040
But Liverpool fans were singing
"You'll Never Walk Alone."
1012
01:01:57,000 --> 01:02:03,840
♪ And you'll never walk alone ♪
1013
01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:07,640
♪ You'll never walk... ♪
1014
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:14,600
The fans are still with us.
1015
01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:16,680
We can't go out on a whimper.
1016
01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,280
We just owed it
to these people to give it a go.
1017
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:27,479
Unless we get the most
incredible of responses from Liverpool,
1018
01:02:27,480 --> 01:02:29,280
they're not going to win it.
1019
01:02:35,520 --> 01:02:38,359
We wanted
to show why we're here.
1020
01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:41,040
Stand together and try to do something.
1021
01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:45,519
Milan beginning the 2nd half
the way they left off, with possession.
1022
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:48,120
Long ball forward.
Hamann controls the ball.
1023
01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:52,439
Opportunity from Riise!
1024
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,479
Header, Gerrard!
Yes, a goal from Steven Gerrard!
1025
01:02:57,840 --> 01:03:01,360
He waves to the fans over
on the far side. "Come on, believe!"
1026
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:08,080
Milan three, Liverpool one, and maybe
a route back through Steven Gerrard.
1027
01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,279
I started to realize,
1028
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:17,960
while it's important
to play with your head,
1029
01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:21,840
you must never forget
to play with your heart.
1030
01:03:23,200 --> 01:03:24,799
Hamann, 25 yards out.
1031
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:27,319
Doesn't shoot, but Šmicer might.
1032
01:03:27,320 --> 01:03:31,440
All the way from Vladimir Šmicer!
1033
01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:35,799
That's more like it here in Istanbul!
1034
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,839
The game seemed to be
all over at half-time,
1035
01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:41,600
but maybe it's not
Impossible after all.
1036
01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:46,759
Milan three, Liverpool two.
1037
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:50,519
They know
that we're gonna fight for this,
1038
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:51,919
and we're not going away.
1039
01:03:51,920 --> 01:03:52,960
The gloves are off.
1040
01:03:54,200 --> 01:03:56,760
Liverpool suddenly
winning the tackles in midfield.
1041
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,439
Rafa wants me to release,
he wants me to gamble,
1042
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:06,199
he wants me to make more forward runs.
1043
01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:09,559
No team has come from
three-nil down in the European Cup final
1044
01:04:09,560 --> 01:04:10,719
to win the trophy.
1045
01:04:10,720 --> 01:04:12,199
This is the 50th.
1046
01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:16,159
It took me back to being a kid
in the schoolyard where...
1047
01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:19,600
emotion just takes over,
and I was James Carragher there.
1048
01:04:20,760 --> 01:04:23,080
That kid
kicking a ball around the streets.
1049
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:29,319
I remember just taking off with the ball,
and I just don't do that.
1050
01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:31,680
And it's
Jamie Carragher for Liverpool.
1051
01:04:32,600 --> 01:04:37,280
Gerrard's there! Gerrard goes down under
challenge, and the penalty's been given.
1052
01:04:37,800 --> 01:04:39,879
Now who's
going to take this penalty?
1053
01:04:39,880 --> 01:04:42,320
Steven Gerrard is the obvious choice.
1054
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,880
Rafa used to change penalty takers
every game. It was a bit weird.
1055
01:04:48,720 --> 01:04:50,840
It's gonna be Xabi Alonso.
1056
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:55,280
{\an8}Old memories, all these stories.
1057
01:04:59,040 --> 01:05:00,960
Rafa said, "Xabi, you have to take it."
1058
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:05,560
But it was my first penalty
as a professional.
1059
01:05:06,880 --> 01:05:10,239
This 23-year-old lad
in his first season in England,
1060
01:05:10,240 --> 01:05:12,240
who's missed
half the season through injury.
1061
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,519
I was feeling the moment,
the meaning of the penalty,
1062
01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:20,239
the lack of experience.
1063
01:05:20,240 --> 01:05:21,440
It was...
1064
01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:23,800
so important for...
1065
01:05:24,640 --> 01:05:27,880
for the club, for the game,
for me, for everyone.
1066
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:32,320
Alonso can complete
the most remarkable turnaround here.
1067
01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:41,440
He saved it!
1068
01:05:46,160 --> 01:05:48,640
It felt like time stood still.
1069
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:54,519
Alonso's there
for the rebound!
1070
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:58,800
And Mission: Impossible is accomplished!
1071
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:03,400
Liverpool were three-nil down
five minutes ago!
1072
01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:06,920
And now look at that scoreline!
1073
01:06:07,400 --> 01:06:10,760
There has never been a
Champions League final anything like this.
1074
01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:18,159
Wow!
1075
01:06:18,160 --> 01:06:23,160
That's the point where I thought
maybe this is written in the stars.
1076
01:06:24,000 --> 01:06:28,280
We are possibly on the verge
of the greatest ever European Cup final.
1077
01:06:30,000 --> 01:06:32,560
And we are going into extra time.
1078
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:44,079
Toward Serginho,
who brings it down brilliantly.
1079
01:06:44,080 --> 01:06:45,559
Into the penalty area it goes!
1080
01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:47,919
Deflected away by Carragher.
Could have gone anywhere.
1081
01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:49,720
Could have gone into his own net.
1082
01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:55,119
We were under huge pressure from AC Milan.
1083
01:06:55,120 --> 01:06:58,280
You're throwing your body, you're
throwing everything in front of things.
1084
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:00,879
We were hanging on for dear life.
1085
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:02,480
Kaká's driven it across!
1086
01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:05,000
And Traoré the hero!
1087
01:07:05,920 --> 01:07:08,199
For me, that moment,
it was a second chance
1088
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:09,919
for me to show my character,
1089
01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:14,279
my strength, and to show to
the rest of the world, like, who we are.
1090
01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,639
Just three minutes
of extra time. Three-three.
1091
01:07:16,640 --> 01:07:20,439
Ball played in, header dive saved by
Dudek! Another brilliant save by Dudek!
1092
01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,239
How did he keep that out?
1093
01:07:22,240 --> 01:07:24,560
It was seconds, milliseconds.
1094
01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,559
I thought to myself,
"How did I save that?"
1095
01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:32,200
Unbelievable
from the Polish goalkeeper.
1096
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:35,719
All the criticism
I came under,
1097
01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:38,319
I had waited for this moment
until the very end.
1098
01:07:40,720 --> 01:07:43,880
And it will
be a penalty shootout.
1099
01:07:45,080 --> 01:07:47,160
An unbelievable football match.
1100
01:07:49,640 --> 01:07:52,840
Jamie Carragher is practically
manhandling Jerzy Dudek.
1101
01:07:53,800 --> 01:07:56,639
He started pushing me.
"Come on, Jerzy. Come on."
1102
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:57,839
He was shouting.
1103
01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:00,079
Put them off.
You know, we've got to do it.
1104
01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,639
We're never going to be in this
position again. Remember 1984.
1105
01:08:03,640 --> 01:08:05,799
Remember Grobbelaar. Put them off.
1106
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:08,679
I remember it to this day
when I close my eyes.
1107
01:08:08,680 --> 01:08:12,880
I see him wearing
his green jersey and red shorts,
1108
01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:16,040
and trying to distract the opponent.
1109
01:08:16,840 --> 01:08:18,359
Missed it!
1110
01:08:18,360 --> 01:08:20,400
Do anything you can. Anything.
1111
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:25,839
I said to myself, "Okay, Bruce did the
spaghetti legs. He moved a little bit."
1112
01:08:25,840 --> 01:08:29,080
"Okay, maybe... maybe I do a little bit."
1113
01:08:29,800 --> 01:08:32,399
Dudek. Against the Serginho.
1114
01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:33,680
Who misses!
1115
01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:37,200
Best possible start for Liverpool.
1116
01:08:39,400 --> 01:08:43,880
Didi Hamann will take
the first of Liverpool's penalties.
1117
01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:46,800
Then Rafa came up and said,
"You take the first one."
1118
01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:49,999
Benítez knew everything about penalties.
1119
01:08:50,000 --> 01:08:53,559
He said to me that
you've got a 91% better chance
1120
01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:56,640
when you hit it above hip
height to my left.
1121
01:08:57,400 --> 01:08:59,720
Hamann,
to give Liverpool the advantage.
1122
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:03,560
That'll do! And Liverpool are in front.
1123
01:09:05,040 --> 01:09:07,719
{\an8}As Dudek waves both arms at Pirlo.
1124
01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:11,640
Pirlo moves in. And Dudek makes the save!
1125
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:13,239
Here he comes.
1126
01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:17,000
{\an8}Dida moves. Moves the wrong way.
Two-nil to Liverpool.
1127
01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:19,600
Tomasson.
1128
01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:21,120
He's scored.
1129
01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:25,999
John Arne Riise.
1130
01:09:26,000 --> 01:09:28,000
Ooh, but Dida reached it.
1131
01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:30,720
{\an8}So Milan are back in it.
1132
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,640
{\an8}Kaká could equalize here.
1133
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,400
{\an8}Emphatically taken by Kaká.
1134
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:42,879
Šmicer. A long, long run-up.
1135
01:09:42,880 --> 01:09:44,039
Here he comes.
1136
01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:45,679
And he's slipped into the net!
1137
01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:47,440
{\an8}Liverpool lead three-two.
1138
01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:54,520
{\an8}If Milan miss this,
then Liverpool win the trophy.
1139
01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:58,439
{\an8}The greatest striker in Europe
at the moment, Andriy Shevchenko.
1140
01:09:58,440 --> 01:10:00,399
He wants the ball immediately.
1141
01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:04,079
Of course, if he misses here,
Liverpool, against all the odds,
1142
01:10:04,080 --> 01:10:06,480
have won the Champions League.
1143
01:10:08,280 --> 01:10:12,079
Rafa, when it came
to statistics, was the best.
1144
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:13,519
We had a code.
1145
01:10:13,520 --> 01:10:17,520
The goal was
divided into six squares.
1146
01:10:19,440 --> 01:10:21,120
He shared this information.
1147
01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:25,120
"Andriy Shevchenko likes 1 and 4."
1148
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,520
Shevchenko!
1149
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,039
Dudek saves
1150
01:10:45,040 --> 01:10:46,680
for Liverpool!
1151
01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:49,999
And against all the odds,
1152
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:53,160
the team who were 3-0 down at half-time...
1153
01:10:54,760 --> 01:10:57,719
Liverpool have won the Champions League!
1154
01:10:57,720 --> 01:11:01,439
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart.
1155
01:11:01,440 --> 01:11:02,999
This is amazing.
1156
01:11:03,000 --> 01:11:05,599
A night they will never forget.
1157
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,080
Liverpool are champions of Europe.
1158
01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:14,959
Unbelievable.
1159
01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:18,999
There has never been
a footballing story as dramatic,
1160
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:20,999
and this is just incredible.
1161
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:22,040
Brilliant.
1162
01:11:30,200 --> 01:11:31,520
Liverpool,
1163
01:11:32,320 --> 01:11:33,640
2005!
1164
01:11:35,240 --> 01:11:38,279
Football will never
get any better than that, for me.
1165
01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:41,479
It was something that
you didn't believe could ever happen.
1166
01:11:41,480 --> 01:11:43,040
Was beyond your wildest dreams.
1167
01:11:49,040 --> 01:11:50,879
Need someone to shake me, wake me up!
1168
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:53,400
- The cup's back at home where it belongs!
- Yeah!
1169
01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:57,559
I went through, like,
so many very, very low moments.
1170
01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:02,160
But when you go back, it was
a fantastic journey to be part of it.
1171
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:04,560
It was a great, great time.
1172
01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,839
You feel so fulfilled
for what you have achieved,
1173
01:12:12,840 --> 01:12:15,159
for how much it meant for the fans,
for the city.
1174
01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:17,279
I'm in dreamland!
1175
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:21,479
You are now part of the history
of Liverpool, and that's...
1176
01:12:21,480 --> 01:12:23,720
That's a great feeling, a great privilege.
1177
01:12:26,480 --> 01:12:29,799
We showed
that it's never over till it's over.
1178
01:12:29,800 --> 01:12:31,880
To see how much it means to the people,
1179
01:12:33,080 --> 01:12:35,480
that's something I'll never forget.
1180
01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:38,640
It was a difficult journey,
1181
01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:41,680
an emotional ride...
1182
01:12:43,640 --> 01:12:46,080
but the reality is I'm a fan
and I'm one of them.
1183
01:12:46,840 --> 01:12:49,400
I was the lucky one who could go
and try and do it.
1184
01:12:52,800 --> 01:12:54,879
This was
what you dream of as a kid.
1185
01:12:54,880 --> 01:12:59,199
You know, I wanted to be part of something
that was looked back on in years to come.
1186
01:12:59,200 --> 01:13:00,520
I got to live out that dream.
1187
01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:04,520
It's not like
I don't feel the emotions.
1188
01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:07,560
It's just difficult to express
1189
01:13:08,160 --> 01:13:09,839
because there are so many emotions.
1190
01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:13,039
You feel pride, you feel satisfaction.
1191
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:14,960
You feel special.
1192
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:17,959
I look back
at Rafa now and think
1193
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:19,959
he's the best coach that I've worked with.
1194
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:21,719
I didn't think it at the time,
1195
01:13:21,720 --> 01:13:23,599
but now for my career,
1196
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:26,359
and someone who helped me
take me to the next level,
1197
01:13:26,360 --> 01:13:29,080
Rafa Benítez played
a massive part in that.
1198
01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:33,279
When you look back
at history in football,
1199
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:38,160
there's been better players,
teams, managers at this club,
1200
01:13:38,840 --> 01:13:41,640
but I don't think
there's ever been a greater moment
1201
01:13:42,520 --> 01:13:44,760
in Liverpool's history than Istanbul.
