The historic escape act was one of the finest in Champions League history and Fowler believes it should be ranked as the best of Liverpool’s European triumphs at their famous old stadium. “Before the game, we were talking about all the superlatives we can about Messi. We can run out of superlatives for Liverpool.“I’m so proud and so delighted to be part of Liverpool. Everything about Liverpool tonight was brilliant.”
“It’s only football that can do this. What an incredible season we’ve had and it’s not over yet,” Owen said.
