O Liverpool venceu o Real Madrid por 4-3 no Legend Charity Match, em Anfield Road, casa dos «reds».
Num jogo que reuniu figuras da história recente das duas equipas e no qual participou o português Luís Figo, Steven Gerrard mostrou que quem sabe nunca esquece. O antigo médio, já retirado do futebol, fez duas assistências, marcou um golo de belo efeito e protagonizou mais alguns momentos de inspiração.
GERRARD!!! ⚽
[4-0]

A equipa inglesa, com nomes como o ex-sportinguista Phil Babb, Michael Owen ou Ian Rush, esteve a vencer por 4-0 (Owen, Aldridge e Fowler marcaram os outros), mas dez minutos poderosos dos merengues, com três golos, alimentaram a incerteza até ao apito final. Edwin Congo, que teve uma passagem fugaz pelo V. Guimarães, De La Red e Morientes marcaram para o Real.
As receitas de bilheteira do jogo reverteram para a Fundação do Liverpool.
