Memorable Matches

James Park.

Liverpool 5 – Newcastle 1 December 2008: Five years before the above match, Rafa Benitez was still prowling the Liverpool touchline and his men recorded a dominant victory against Newcastle.

Steven Gerrard scored twice as he inspired his side in typical fashion.

Even Lucas Leiva and Ryan Babel were getting in on the attack for Liverpool as this was one of the signature wins of the campaign that would ultimately fall just short as they usually did during this era.

Liverpool 4 – Newcastle 3 – April 1996: This is considered one of the greatest matches of all-time.

However, it was Stan Collymore who was the hero as he also scored two including the game winner in the 92nd minute.

If the match on Sunday comes anywhere close to this, we all might need to to have a a breathing machine handy to make sure we can handle the inevitable emotional roller coaster.

The hope is that Liverpool can chalk up another smashing victory for the record books, but any win will do.
