Liverpool faced familiar opposition in the semi-finals, in the form of Chelsea F.C. This was the second time in three years the two sides had met at the semi final stage. Chelsea won the first leg 1–0 after Joe Cole scored on 29 minutes. This represented, the first time in a UEFA Champions League semi-final, that Chelsea had a lead to defend in the return leg.[31] The second leg in Liverpool went all the way to penalties, after Daniel Agger, had scored on 22 minutes, to tie the aggregate score at 1–1. With no further goals in normal time the game went into extra time. Dirk Kuyt found the net in the first half of extra time, however his strike was ruled out for offside. No one else found the net in extra time, so penalties beckoned at the Anfield Road End.[32] After Boudewijn Zenden had scored Liverpool's first attempt, Reina guessed right to save Arjen Robben's effort. Xabi Alonso, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard scored the next penalties, before Geremi saw his penalty saved by Reina to leave Kuyt to score the final penalty. This secured Liverpool a 4–1 victory on penalties.[32] Chelsea Football Club (also known as The Blues or previously The Pensioners) are an English professional football club based in west London. ...

Problems before the match Out of 63,800 tickets, only 9,000 tickets for the final went on general sale, the remainder were shared between the two teams who got 17,000 each, and the UEFA family and sponsors who received 20,800 tickets.[33][34] This led to some of the problems before the match.[35] While fans were still queuing to gain entry to the stadium, the Greek police informed them that the stadium was full and denied entry to a number of fans who had genuine tickets.[36] UEFA sources said that as many as 5,000 fans either without tickets or brandishing fakes had entered the 74,000-capacity Olympic Stadium. Simultaneously, thousands of fans with genuine tickets were refused entry as police closed the entrance to the ground amid fears that allowing any more to enter could have led to a disaster.[37] The resulting situation became disorderly, with some Liverpool fans attempting to break through checkpoints, set up by the Greek police. Greek riot police used tear gas and batons to disperse the crowd.[36] UEFA spokesman William Gaillard blamed Liverpool fans for causing the problems, stating, "Milan supporters didn't face the same problems because they didn't behave in the same way".[38] A UEFA report released soon after the final branded Liverpool supporters "the worst fans in Europe", with Gaillard stating: "What other set of fans steal tickets from their fellow supporters or out of the hands of children?"[39] However, UEFA President Michel Platini later admitted that Liverpool fans were, in fact, not the worst behaved in Europe.[40] UEFA was itself criticised for poor ticket-checking procedures and for implementing insufficient measures to deal with the large number of fans. Simon Gass, the British ambassador to Greece, said, "Clearly there was some element of breakdown where those fake tickets appeared to be legitimate - that's something UEFA must look at."[41] Meanwhile, Liverpool co-owner Tom Hicks described UEFA's allocation of only 17,000 tickets to the two teams, knowing that Liverpool would be bringing 40,000 supporters, as "insane" and accused Gaillard of blaming Liverpool fans in order to cover up for his own mistakes.[35] UEFA was further criticised by A.C. Milan and Liverpool for their lack of provision for their disabled fans, providing the clubs with only sixteen disabled tickets each.[42] The Union Européenne de Football Association or Union of European Football Associations in English, almost always referred to by the acronym UEFA (pronounced (you-AY-fuh) or (oo-Ay-fuh) or ), is the administrative and controlling body for European football. ...

Milan chose to wear their all-white strip for the final, despite being drawn as the "home" team for the match.[44] They consider the kit to be lucky (Italian: maglia fortunata), having won the European Cup five times in this kit. However, Milan have lost finals wearing this kit twice, most recently against Liverpool in 2005. This decision by Milan meant that Liverpool played the final in their traditional home kit of red shirts, red shorts and red socks. Each of Liverpool's five European Cup titles have been won in their all-red strip, and two of these came when they were playing against Italian teams who played in all-white.[45] A.C. Milan fielded the oldest starting eleven ever in a Champions League final, with the average age at 31 years, 34 days, while Paolo Maldini was the oldest outfield player ever in a final at 38 years and 331 days.[46] Liverpool fielded five of the players that started the 2005 final, those players were; Xabi Alonso, Jamie Carragher, Steve Finnan, Steven Gerrard and John Arne Riise.[47] Paolo Maldini (born June 26, 1968 in Milan) is an Italian footballer who plays for A.C. Milan. ...

Liverpool F.C. produced one of the most extraordinary comebacks in both Champions League and football history by upsetting heavily favored A.C. Milan at the Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey May 25, 2005 after being 3-0 down at halftime. ...
First half The first half started off scrappily, as a number of fouls were given away in the early minutes. The first meaningful effort on goal came in the ninth minute when Jermaine Pennant dispossessed Marek Jankulovski, putting himself through on goal, but his scuffed shot was saved by Dida. Milan fought back with Pirlo coming close to putting Inzaghi through on goal, Pepe Reina saved a Kaká shot on 17 minutes. In the following minutes both John Arne Riise and Xabi Alonso missed the target with shots from distance, while Massimo Oddo and Marek Jankulovski were causing problems down the flanks. In the 35th minute, Pennant once again broke away down the right after stealing the ball off Paolo Maldini, and put in a good ball for Kuyt, whose shot was blocked. Unlike the previous encounter in 2005, however, the first half had only one goal, scored against the run of play by A.C. Milan's forward Filippo Inzaghi. The goal came in the 45th minute after a deflection from an Andrea Pirlo free kick, given after Alonso had brought down Kaká. The deflection resulted in the ball being diverted past Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina, who had dived the other way in anticipation of the ball's original trajectory.[47] Replays showed that the ball struck Inzaghi's upper arm on its way to the goal, however the referee did not judge this to have been handball.[49] Inzaghi later said that while the deflection was intended, he did not intend for the ball to hit his arm.[50] Jermaine Lloyd Pennant (born January 15, 1983 in Nottingham) is an English footballer who signed for Liverpool in July 2006. ...

Second half Liverpool played cautiously immediately after the break, although they continued to hold the possession. In the 62nd minute, Liverpool created their best chance of the match up to that point, as captain Steven Gerrard capitalised on Gennaro Gattuso's error to burst through one-on-one with Dida, but was unable to muster enough power in his shot to beat the Milan goalkeeper. The game continued in the same pattern with the action concentrated in the Milan half, with Liverpool unable to fashion any real goal-scoring efforts. Liverpool manager Rafael Benítez then took off Javier Mascherano, to be replaced by striker Peter Crouch, in an attempt to equalise.[47] However, Mascherano was marking Kaká, and his removal allowed the Brazilian to run free without being heavily marked. Milan then put the game beyond the English side in the 82nd minute when Inzaghi beat the offside trap via a pass from Kaká and put the ball under the onrushing Pepe Reina to make the score 2–0. Dirk Kuyt gave Liverpool hope as he headed in an 89th minute goal from Daniel Agger's flick-on from a corner kick but Milan held on, and the game finished 2–1.[47] However Liverpool manager Rafa Benítez was annoyed that the referee did not play out the full three minutes of injury time at the end of the match.[51] Steven George Gerrard MBE (IPA: []) (born 30 May 1980, Whiston, Merseyside) is an English football player. ...

Post-match The trophy was presented to A.C. Milan captain Paolo Maldini in the Guest of Honour's box, as UEFA President Michel Platini favoured a return to the past tradition of the winning captain receiving the trophy amongst the fans. It had become customary in recent years to have the presentation on a hastily constructed podium in the centre of the pitch. It was the first time that the trophy was presented to a winning captain by a UEFA president who had actually played against him in the past; during Michel Platini's final seasons with Juventus, the then teenager Paolo Maldini was making his professional debut with Milan.[45] Paolo Maldini (born June 26, 1968 in Milan) is an Italian footballer who plays for A.C.
