I was there... I'm crying when Milan score the 3rd goal.. My dad calm me down..till now still Remember his word.. Don't worry son keep believing.. Anything is possible we are Liverpool... I miss you dad.. We did it again dad in 2019 but you not with me anymore😭😭😭😭

0 - 3 and thousands of people singing ''You'll never walk alone''. That is what sport is all about. That's the extra-motivation they needed to make this happen.

A lot of people won’t realise that Liverpool during that time were no were near close to a top team like Manchester United, AC Milan, etc. How they won UCL is really a mystery. A true David vs Goliath moment.

AC Milan : We have an army Liverpool : We have a Gerrard

It isn't just how Liverpool won, its who they beat. That Milan line up is incredible.

54' - Gerrard, 56' - Smicer 54', 56' - Wijnaldum Who would've thought?

People will always hate on Stevie G for his slip and never winning a Premiere League, but he will ALWAYS be a legend for this

I remember watching this game as a 5-year old brazilian and falling in love with Liverpool that day. Even though everyone in Brazil cheered for Milan that day given the big brazilian names on the team (Kaka, Cafu, Dida), I couldn't get over the fact that I had witnessed such an impossible comeback from an underdog. Now I'm 21 and even more passionate about my Reds, hoping I get to watch a game at Anfield someday.

We will see one more come back in 2019 in 2nd leg, leg1 score barcelona 3-0 liverpool ucl semifinal . Edit:-Thank you ❤

I live in Istanbul, my uncle took me to this match. I was 12 years old. now 28...it was the best moment of my life...

Dudek,what an underrated gk he is.truly was biggest saviour for liverpool

The true meaning of "You Will Never Walk Alone" and being led by a captain who was a club fan before he became a player. True passion running in the veins.

It's not just how Liverpool won, it's WHO they beat. Maldini, Nesta, Pirlo, Kaka, Cafu, Shevchenko, Crespo, Inzaghi, Rui Costa, Dida, Stam, Costacurta, Seedorf, Gattuso, Ambrosini, Serginho, etc.

"The miracle of Istanbul" I never get tired of watching this

This game is the reason why I became a Liverpool fan, and I haven't regretted it since!!! YNWA

I remember my dad waking me up in tears of joy, "WE DID IT BOY, WE F*CKING DID IT!" He was a proud Red, as am I. R.I.P (Ashes scattered at Anfield 2017) ☆☆☆☆☆☆

2 YEARS of silence for those who switched their tv off at half time

Dudek and Gerrard friggin’ legends

5:08 Ancelotti used to celebrate goals but he stopped after the night at Istanbul

Nesta, Cafu, maldini , stam , kaka, pirlo, gattuso, Shevchenko, seddorf, Crespo 😭❤️ what a team that was .

I remember staying up to watch this game when I was 13, despite having a geography exam the next morning. Slept right through the paper, got 2/50 but no regrets

Perhaps the most legendary final in football history.

That turn and pass from kaka is pure art. One of the best assists of all time.

When Traore cleared the ball of the line, when Dudek made that impossible double save, when the unlikely players like Pirlo and Shevchenko misses their penalty, you know that the football Gods already picked their winner even before the kick off. This is truly a miracle.

"People will be talking about this game in 2030" It's 2020 and we still talk about it

the AC MILAN Squad is INSANE. From GK to Striker, absolute Legends

Best UCL ever 2005, best WC ever 2022

That milan squad.. The most complete and talented team in the history of Serie A, and i say this as a Juve fan. An absolute titan of a team.

A player like Steven Gerrard is the best thing that any football fans will dream to have in their club. A local lad who captained his side, scored countless crucial goals and lead his team to victory in CL final after 3-0 down.. I remember it was a special day for me and whole Liverpool whenever he scores.. his body language and authority in the field is incomparable with any other players.. Haters can say he didn't won PL so he is not the best but ultimately its not about winning, its not about the final score.. Its about how you felt during a game.. its about how you experienced a season.. I am sure every Liverpool fans would have experienced ecstasy when Steven Gerrard scored in FA cup final and against Olympiakos to advance through group stage..I really wanted Liverpool to win 2013-14 season for Gerrard to have a remarkable story with happy ending.. But now I feel like some stories are better with sad ending.. Steven Gerrard is the best story to ever happen in PL or perhaps in world football..

The best Champions final match ever!!!! “You’ll never walk alone”

That save by Dudek from Shevchenko and Tomasson was the biggest heartstopping moment since the equalizing goal by Alonso

It gets overlooked because of the result but good lord that Kaka assist may be the best pass I’ve ever seen

We deserved to win that match, but in 6 minuted we wasted a victory. Liverpool believed in the victory more than us, congratulations for that comeback. That night i have cried. Sorry for my bad English, i'm italian.

Steven Gerrard is a fucking legend . Jealous rivals gives him stick for the slip, but actually he gave Liverpool 3 trophies single handedly including that fa cup. And a total 10-11 trophies.

Gerrard's reaction after the first goal defines the connect Liverpool players and the fans share, which is to say YNWA emotion so clear there. The confidence in each other. Just one of a kind club. ❤

I was there .. When Milan scored the third goal , i started crying . I was a huge supporter of Liverpool but it was the first in stadium match I ever saw . When Gerrard scored I calmed down . When smicer scored . i was happy but when alonso scored , i got goosebumps. THE MIRACLE OF ISTANBUL !

Dudek's double save still the greatest bit of goalkeeping.. EVER

Dida, Cafú, Nesta, Stam,Maldini, Pirlo, Seedorf, Gattuso, Kaká,Crespo and Shevchenko. Bench: Inzaghi, Rui Costa, Tommason, Serginho etc.... Great team! Jesus

This AC Milan team was a monster. Liverpool, YNWA and to this day I still don't know how you managed to comeback from 0-3 at half time. Truly a miracle at Istanbul.

After that performance these commentators have to had have a raise. Possibly the best commentators to ever exist. Those reactions for the Liverpool goals are precious to the Liverpool fans.🐏🐏🔥🔥🔥

Best comeback ever in the UCL final!

This was the greatest game of football I ever saw. I started to support Liverpool in late 2004 and this was my first season as a Liverpool fan. I was deflated when we was 3 nil down at half time and I said to my dad you might as well turn the tv off because I thought we had lost it, thank the heavens though that my dad still had some hope because some Liverpool fans did switch the tv off at half time and till this day they regret it. That comeback was unbelievable and you can tell the AC Milan players were completely shocked that they couldn’t even take their penalties. And that Dudek double save just wow, after that save you could tell it was just written in the stars. 14 years later I saw the second greatest game ever when we beat Barcelona 4 nil at Anfield, and now after 16 years of being a Liverpool fan finally we are Premier League champions. Liverpool may not do things the easy way, but boy do we do things the amazing way.

Best final in the history of football! 👍

The greatest comeback of all time. Nothing is impossible 👍

personally, this is the best UCL Final. And the moment when Gerrard lifted that trophy, it's just iconic

8:40 ...outrageous save. 999 times out of 1000 that’s a goal. That’s the miracle right there.

This is the game that ignited my love for football..I got to watch it by chance and then after I fell in love with the sport..legendary

As a liverpool die hard fan a few tears dropped after watching this clip. Never been so proud.

Benitez: I think it would be good if we scored an early goal Maldini: Yes

To know that wijnaldum scored at the same time as gerrard and smicer is really unbelievable

From down 3 goals then become 3-3 draw and in the end Liverpool won the 5th time champions league with penalty shootout kick win..this kind of the match really like a Classic..simply.

17 years later and it still brings me to tears and gives me chills.

That Milan lineup is one of the most stacked lineups to ever play in a Champions League Final. Liverpool pulled off a big one on this day. I remember being in the hospital as my sister was being born right as this game was wrapping up.

Liverpool 4-3 barca. Comeback!

bruh that milan squad is savage af . too bad miracles do happen

Traore's defending was just brilliant 👏

Dudek was a monster from that second half, those saves!

what a Keeper Dudek is, legendary

BEST FINAL !!! There is a spirit of challenge in everything that has happened in Istanbul for a thousand years. This great UCL final is one of them. Congratulations Liverpool.

Best final match of UCL 🫶🏻 That's stunning , ICONIC moments for Liverpool fans

Best UCL final ever!!!

Who's here after 4-0 Liv-Barca

One of the most incredible games of football between two of the greatest club sides in history my God that was a special night ynwa

Watched this over 100 times …. And I can still watch over and over again…The best final ever !!

One of the greatest games of football ever

Dudek reactiom after that double saves be like "damn i'm good"

Imagine a fan telling the stoey decades later to his grandchildren" They came from behind to win it and i was there " True football heritage ❤

The commentary was magic

Whenever I feel depressed, I come back here to watch this.

1ST OF JUNE 2019. THE REDS DID IT AGAIN.

2005: the all Red Istanbul Final 2023: the all Blue Istanbul Final

Probably the greatest champions league final of all time😊

6:34 Hello, hello, here we go, Steven Gerrard puts a grain of doubt in the back of Milan minds"

I literally cannot imagine the pressure, the intensity from Liverpool that night.. Walking down that Player Tunnel and right next to them they can see names like Kaka, Seedorf, Gattuso, Maldini, Dida, Sevchenko.

Was one of the best moments of my life... Thank you Gerard Thank you Liverpool Tea at 3:00 AM

I’m Turk and l couldn’t hold back tears while watching Steven Gerrard raised the trophy. He is such an iconic man, he believed and got it. Greetings to all Liverpool and Milan fans ❤️

Steven was truly a hero. Look how he was pumping inspiration into the team when it seemed impossible to win. I'd have honestly given up if I was at the scene. Being a captain aint about skills, strength, or speed - it's about heart.

Not even joking I’m watching this in the middle of the lockdown and I’m crying tears of happiness

I was 14 then. Went into the game as a die hard AC Milan fan and came out of it as a Stevie G fan. The man made me cheer for a team that was facing off against my team. A team that was down 3-0 at half time. A team that had no business being in a UCL final at that time. A team that had no chance in hell to net a goal, let alone make a historic comeback against one of the strongest teams in European football history. I had goosebumps watching this live. I still do, whenever I watch any replay of this match. It made me feel anything was possible, and gave me a very positive outlook on life.

I still have no words to describe this, even 17 years on! YNWA ♥️

And 14 years later, we’re back on top ❤️

I Miss the old Liverpool and milan Squad!

Had a college exam next day, but just watched the game that night. It was unreal.

I was a military high school student when this was the final. We were assigned to the show. After the show, I had the chance to watch the game near the field. 6 goals and all penalties were 20 meters ahead of me. It was the best day of my life.

Just to say, Andrea Pirlo wanted to stop his career after this match, but he didn't give up and won the world cup and the ucl a couple of years later ! But this match was lit !!

Not only was it a miracle to come back from 3 down at half time, but to also beat a Milan side that to this day is considered one of the greatest club squads to grace the sports. The fact that by the second half Dudek practically had them all in his back pocket is still unbelievable to this day.

İstanbul ♥️

Reading Fan. Gerrard, the greatest player to not win a Premier League title, but this one was so amazing to watch back in the day, a truly class player, a lot of people mock him for "The slip" but, personally, I was so heartbroken for the guy, I'd like to see Liverpool win the league soon.

2:29 Xabi Alonso: “Maybe Milan is favourite, but in one game everything could happen”. Yeah, like a comeback from a 0-3... The most epic final

This final gives me so much emotions, it’s crazy how LFC managed to beat what seemed like a dream team. Dudek was our hero during the shootout. 🇵🇱🇵🇱

Watched this live. And it was a mad comeback. Amazing.

2005: "The miracle of Istanbul" 2007: "The revenge of Athena" Gosh football was something else back those days.........

The passion and determination was overwhelming. I pure hope and can do spirit. Will never forget this day. This match made me a Liverpool fan forever.

Still feel the goosebumps...The game that almost cost my life (and many other Liverpool supporters, I believe).

That pass from Kaka was sublime, what a player

Vladimir Smicer's last kick as LFC player won us the European Cup :')

One of the most emotional champions league finals in history. I'm a Manchester United fan but i stood with Liverpool on that day in 2005

may 2005 will always be a remembered the month of my life, the month that my dad has passed away and milan lost tragicly in the champions league final. feels like huge punch in my chest if i see this flashback. forza milan.

Watching the camera pan across all the Milan players at the beginning really shows how good Milan were, 11 iconic players and Liverpool did the impossible

Milan team was prob better than the Madrid team that won 3 CLs. GOATs in almost every position.
