Description

Ahead of Liverpool getting their second Champions League matchday underway against Red Bull Salzburg, our nostalgic look back on the Reds’ Road to Istanbul continues. As we rewind the clock to September 2004, Guy Clarke and Dan Kay take a look back on Liverpool’s second matchday of the victorious 2005 Champions League win as Rafael Benitez’s side travelled to Greece to take on Olympiakos. As well as touching on the result, a 1-0 defeat to the Greek outfit, they also touch on Benitez’s tactical approach and how that would end up paying off in the long term, Steven Gerrard preparing to take the campaign by storm and what else was going on in Europe that matchday.
