Rafa hails ‘unstoppable’ Gerrard
One more victory in Group C against Bordeaux — and a failure by Galatasaray to get anything from their away tie with PSV Eindhoven — will see Liverpool reach the second phase of the competition with two games to spare.
That would be a best-ever performance in the group stages by Liverpool, who qualified with one game to spare last season, and enjoyed a memorable last-game assault on Olympiacos — thanks to a stunning Gerrard goal — the season before.
