25th may

its been 7 years now. yes, exactly 7 years since that day.


one of the most greatest night i ever felt, one of the most greatest that football ever seen.
and yes, it was 25th of may 2005. Miracle on Istanbul.


The Mighty Reds took on AC Milan on the Champions League Final as the Ataturk Olympic Stadium hosted the match. AC Milan who won the 2003 Champions League Final came as the favorite team to win it again. but it didnt scared the shit out of Liverpool nor The Kop. 


as the ref blows the kick off whistle, Milan already lead 1-0 in the very first minute. and continued it until 3-0 at the half time break. the players was already desperate but Rafa made a speech and light them up again, 15 minutes that changed the fate of that game, 15 minutes that made 11 redmen still stood high, 15 minutes that shook the world. 

a part of Rafa's speech on the half time break

they never thought it would happen, miracle, yes miracle on Istanbul. This is where the reality are more stranger the fiction. It was the comeback of comebacks and you can never have foreseen it happening but the Liverpool players have run the length of the field from the south end where the penalty shootout took place to the north end where their loyal fans are packed.
