Steven Gerrard agrees with Robbie Fowler on his 'best' goal for Liverpool

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler has named Steven Gerrard's stoppage-time strike in the 2006 FA Cup final as his favourite goal by the former Reds skipper.

With Liverpool trailing to West Ham United 3-2 in the final seconds of the showpiece final, Gerrard, as the fourth official indicated a minimum of five additional minutes, latched on to a half-hearted clearance by a Hammers defender and unleashed a formidable strike past Shaka Hislop 35 yards from goal.

It was the second time that Rafa Benitez's side had been forced to come from behind during the final, as an own goal from Jamie Carragher and a strike from Dean Ashton saw the Premier League outfit race into a two-goal lead at the Millennium Stadium.
