My first European away was Roma in February 2001. Growing up in the 90s I wondered if I’d ever see Liverpool achieve a victory like that on foreign soil - and here I was, seeing it unfold. A magical night and in large part down to Gérard Houllier. Truly, thanks for the memories. pic.twitter.com/dp44HJXvvg

The following Sunday Liverpool won 4:2 against Manchester City at Anfield in the 5th round of the FA Cup. The match had a 4:00 PM kick off time. A Jari Litmanen penalty and an Emile Heskey goal put Liverpool two up. Andrei Kanchelskis pulled one back for City before half time. Another penalty - this time from Vladimir Smicer - and a late Markus Babbel goal ensured Liverpool's progress to the next round. Shaun Goater scored a consolation goal in the last minute. Liverpool were drawn to play Tranmere Rovers away in the 6th round.
