Liverpool fans will always fondly remember striker Dirk Kuyt, who immortalised himself in folklore after grabbing a late goal in the 2007 Champions League final against AC Milan.
But the Dutchman has revealed he almost didn't feature in the monumental fixture at all after very nearly being ran over... by his own team-mate.
A bizarre tale involving Kuyt, Peter Crouch and a go-kart has emerged after the Feyenoord striker revealed a team bonding session, combined with brake failure, almost culminated in an injury which would have certainly ruled him out of contention to face the Italian giants.
