2007 Champions League final meets the same rivals as 2 years ago final in the same competition. And I bet nobody forget that unforgettable night, the miraculous comeback from Liverpool FC, 3-nil down at the halftime and won it in penalty shootout.
It’s been 2 years and it’s different now, and honestly I think,there’s no revenge as acclaimed by Milan’s side and there’s no guarantee that Liverpool FC will win the Champions League (Cup) for the 6th time because both of them are different sides right now as there are some players brought in, and some players went out, and of course the players who played in the final 2 years ago and will be playing next Wednesday are 2 years older.
As a Liverpool fan, of course, I wish them luck..”In ancient Greece we’ll win it 6 times”.
Anyway, do you still have no idea on what Rafa Benitez said to the players in 2 years ago final in the dressing room when Liverpool went down 3-nil at the halftime and made that unforgettable comeback? Here’s what he said :
Don’t let your heads drop.
All the players who go on the pitch after half-time have to keep their heads held high.
We are Liverpool.
You are playing for Liverpool.
Do not forget that.
You have to hold your heads high for the supporters.
You have to do it for them.
You cannot call yourselves Liverpool players if you have your heads down.
If we create a few chances we have the possibility of getting back into this.
Believe you can do it and you will.
Give yourself the chance to be heroes.
Ah there you go, now you know…
By the way, happy ‘champions league final’, everyone :)
