2025 marks 20 years since of one of the most extraordinary nights in Champion League history, as Liverpool completed the "Miracle of Istanbul”.

AC Milan had a star-studded line up and were overwhelming favourites, especially after they raced into a 3-0 lead. However, Liverpool launched an amazing second half comeback that culminated in them winning the trophy in a penalty shootout.

To mark the 20th anniversary, we take you back to that iconic night with those who were there, including penalty-saving hero, Jerzy Dudek. Plus, broadcasters and fans, each with their own unique perspective on the moments that made the match the most talked-about for years.
