Just short of 19 years ago, they played over an hour together as Liverpool produced one of the greatest comebacks of all time on the grandest stage of them all.
Didi Hamann's introduction at half time of the famous Champions League penalty shootout win over AC Milan in 2005 is probably one of the greatest substitutions of all time. Liverpool went to a back three at 3-0 down, the German partnering Xabi Alonso in central midfield, Steven Gerrard just in front.
They can't have known at around 10:30pm local time in Istanbul what would happen over the next couple of hours.
