Liverpool has confirmed Steven Gerrard is set to return for the club’s ‘Legends game’ against Chelsea next month at Anfield.
A similar turnout is expected next month for the match against Chelsea, which comes 20 years on from the memorable double-legged semi-final in the Champions League.
Luis Garcia’s infamous goal was the only one scored over two legs in 2005, which was dubbed the 'ghost goal' by Jose Mourinho as Chelsea disputed it has crossed the line.
The victory nearly two decades ago ensured Rafael Benitez’s side progressed to the final, where they went on to beat AC Milan on penalties in Istanbul.
Gerrard played a key role in the Reds’ success that season - including scoring the first goal in the comeback win over Milan.
The former midfielder endured an acrimonious relationship with Chelsea fans during his playing days after opting against signing for the Blues in 2005.
“I'm not going to get drawn into wishing the Chelsea fans well, it was nice of them to turn up for once today,” was Gerrard’s parting shot at the club when he played Chelsea for the final time in 2015, on an afternoon when he was jeered by the home supporters at Stamford Bridge.
He’ll be looking forward to facing the Blues again - albeit in a much less competitive environment - when Liverpool and Chelsea legends meet on Saturday March 22 (3pm UK time, 10am ET)
