15 UEFA Champions League Finalists Who Played For Newcastle
Champions League Winners...
15. Dietmar Hamann (2005) - AC Milan 3-3 Liverpool A.E.T. (Reds Won 3-2 On Penalties)
The German midfielder dynamo came off the bench at half-time to star in Liverpool's remarkable second-half comeback. A goal from Paolo Maldini and a brace from Hernan Crespo had put AC Milan 3-0 up after 44 minutes, but Steven Gerrard, Vladimir Smicer and Xabi Alonso levelled the game up by the hour mark. Hamann then scored the first of the Reds' spot-kicks as they ran out 3-2 winners on penalties on that mad May night in Istanbul.
