Type :
Goal scored from a free-kick
How :
Header from inside the penalty area
Assist
After the Reds won a free kick in the attacking half, Danny Murphy took the responsibility.
Although he was closer to the halfway line than the edge of the penalty area, he still whipped in a dangerous, curling cross into the box with his right-foot.
Goal
Sami Hyypiä was afforded space to make a short run towards the ball and was able to leap unmarked as the cross came in.
He planted a firm header downwards which bounced up off the turf and across the line, inside the near post.
4 : 4 : 2
