Just a year later, Liverpool were at it again. This time with a different goalkeeper to take the plaudits as Pepe Reina joined the list of heroic Reds keepers.
The Reds had another hero in this match though, the final become known as the ‘Gerrard Final’ as Liverpool’s captain twice became the saviour with two equalisers as the game seemed to be slipping away.
The Liverpool skipper also scored from the spot during the shoot-out, as did Hamann and Riise, but the headlines were left for Pepe Reina as the Reds keeper saved three of West Ham’s penalties.
