Liverpool took a 1-0 lead to Anfield for the second-leg of this Champions League last-16 tie in March 2009, with Yossi Benayoun’s priceless late header the difference between the two sides at Santiago Bernabeu.
2nd leg in Anfield, Liverpool eliminated the nine-time European Cup winners Real Madrid with a 4–0 home victory. Fernando Torres doubled Liverpool’s aggregate lead in the 16th minute, and Steven Gerrard made it 2–0 on the night with a 28th-minute penalty. Gerrard further extended Liverpool’s lead two minutes after half-time and Andrea Dossena made it 5–0 on aggregate with two minutes left.
