4. Liverpool 4-0 Real Madrid (2009)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKbrAU9wGqQ Following the aforementioned 1-0 win at Santiago Bernabeu, in which Benayoun had proven to be an unlikely hero, the two teams reconvened for the second-leg at Anfield. Despite Liverpool clearly being the favourites to qualify, there were still plenty who felt the La Liga giants were far from out of the tie. As it turned out, they were about to get mauled by a scintillating Reds side. If it hadn't been for an outstanding individual performance by Casillas, the score could have been anything. Torres gave Liverpool the lead with a close-range finish after 16 minutes- they had already been denied numerous times- and Gerrard's penalty, after Gabriel Heinze was rather harshly penalised for handball inside the box, effectively put the tie to bed. It was becoming one of the most impressive performances by the Reds in many years. Gerrard got his second of the game after the break, firing a superb half-volleyed effort past Casillas, and Andrea Dossena gave the game its finishing touches after a flowing move in the final minutes. Madrid, the most successful side in European Cup history, had been demolished. Benitez's men lost to Chelsea in the quarter-finals, after a thrilling 4-4 draw at Stamford Bridge and a 7-5 aggregate defeat.
