Relive the trauma of half-time at Istanbul...
as the Reds take on Sao Paulo in the Final of the World Club Championship.
A chance to be heroes
The Champions League final was the football story of 2005. In this extract from his book, A Season on the Brink, Guillem Balague talks to all the key men in the Liverpool dressing room about what happened at half-time, the men who, in 15 minutes, amazingly persuaded a team who had traipsed off the pitch in despair to pull off the most stunning triumph in the European Cup's 50-year history.

We didn't win.
It was most disappointing, we were in control, the attempts on goal were aplenty, but we couldn't finish.
My take, Crouch should have been brought on earlier. Cisse should have come on instead of Flo. We should have started with 4-4-2. I have no idea why Kewell started, though he played a pretty good game.
It was a rare mistake of Hyypia to be caught ball-watching.
Credit to Sao Paulo for holding the 1-goal lead.
