LIVERPOOL FC: ON THIS DAY: APRIL 5, 2005

Liverpool produced another memorable European display to beat Italian giants Juventus on an emotional Champions League quarter-final night at Anfield.

/noticias.info/ Goals from Sami Hyypia and Luis Garcia edged Rafael Benitez's men to a 2-1 win over the Old Lady - a result that effectively booked our place in the semi-finals for the first time in twenty years following a 0-0 draw in the second-leg.

Prior to the clash at Anfield both clubs joined together to honour the memory of the 39 victims of Heysel with a fans match at the Academy, a Kop mosaic and a banner carrying the words 'In Memoria e Amicizia' carried on to the pitch.

Elsewhere on this day in LFC history a lucky omen came to an abrupt end in 1987, as we lost for the first time ever after Ian Rush had opened the scoring in a match.

It was the 145th game in which he had found the back of the net but unfortunately for the Reds it couldn't prevent them slipping to a 2-1 defeat to Arsenal in the Littlewoods Cup final. notas_de_prensa_archivo
