Can Liverpool score 3 goals at Stamford Bridge?

After yesterdays 1-3 defait against Chelsea at Anfield, things are looking bad for 'the men in Red'. They know they have to score 3(!) goals at Stamford Bridge. Looks impossible. Or not? It wouldn't be the first time Liverpool achieve something against all odds. Remember that special night in Istanbul back in 2005. Or the 'Gerrard final' in 2006. Or Gerrards cracker vs Olympiakos in 2004. With Liverpool, it's not over untill the final minute has ended.
Have a look at some stunning comebacks in the recent years.


8 December 2004: Liverpool - Olympiakos 3-1

It was the last game of the group stages of the Champions League and Liverpool knew that a 1-0 victory would see them trew to the knock-out stages. If Olympiakos managed to score, Liverpool had to beat them with a 2-goal lead. And things started bad for Liverpool. In the 27th minute, Brazilian star Rivaldo scored with a free kick for Olympiakos to give them a 0-1 lead. Liverpool now had to score 3 goals in 1 hour.
In the 47th minute Pongolle scored for Liverpool, was it possible? But all hope was gone when after 79 minutes the score was still 1-1. But when Mellor made it 2-1 in the 80th minute, Liverpool fans started to believe again. And then, in the 86th minute... GERRARD... O YOU BEAUTY, WAT A HIT SON... We all remember the emotions of the reporters. Gerrard scored a beauty wich is named as he's best goal for Liverpool so far. Liverpool won the Champions League that year!

Have a look at Gerrards goal:



25 May 2005: AC Milan - Liverpool 3-3

This is probably the greatest return ever. Milan started the game as massive favourites, and they played like favourites. After 50 seconds Maldini scored for Milan. Liverpool were behind from the start. And things got even worse for Rafas men. Another 2 goals from Crespo (39th and 44th minute), gave Milan a 3-0 lead at half-time. Victory was certain for the Italian giants. But Liverpoolfans never give up, and at half time the only chants that you could hear in the stadium was Liverpools You'll Never Walk Alone.
But there was hope when 10 minutes into the 2nd half, Mr. Livepool, Steven Gerrard, scored with a great header to make it 3-1. Milan were in shock, and just 2 minutes after Gerrards goal, Vladimir Smicer scored the 3-2. Suddenly everything was possible. And than, 3 minutes after the 2nd goal, Steven Gerrard was brought down in the penalty area and Xabi Alonso had a chance to make it 3-3. He placed himself behind the ball, and... DIDA SAVES IT, BUT WAIT ALONSO... 3-3, the Spanish midfielder scored the rebound. Liverpool scored 3 times in 7(!) minutes. A MIRACLE. And so it stayed. Shevchenko had two great chance in the last minutes of extra-time, but Dudek was immense that night. Liverpool won the game 3-2 on penalties. A stunning comeback from the Reds, in the best European Cupfinal ever!

13 May 2006: Liverpool - West Ham 3-3

Just a year after the Champions League victory against Milan, Liverpool faced West Ham in the final of the FA Cup. And yet again Liverpool started the game poor. An own-goal by Jamie Carragher (21th min) and a goal by Ashton just 7 minutes later gave West Ham a 2-0 lead over Liverpool. But Liverpool were used to this stuff, so goals by Cisse and Gerrard cleared our West Hams goals. Liverpool had done it again! But in the 64th minute, Konchesky gave West Ham a 3-2 lead. I looked like it was over when it was still 3-2 in the 90th minute. But than, Steven Gerrard did it again! He unleashed a cracker from far distance to make it 3-3, and again penalties would decide the game. The Reds won 3-1 on penalties.
