Micah Richards and Thierry Henry struggled to contain their laughter as they reminded Jamie Carragher about the last time Liverpool played Benfica in the Champions League prior to their meeting this season.
Jurgen Klopp's Reds have progressed to the last four of the competition having toppled their Portuguese counterparts, but Benfica did not go down without a fight and eventually went out on a 6-4 aggregate defeat. The two-legged last eight tie marked the first time the teams have faced off in the knockout rounds since the 2005/06 campaign.
Things fared rather differently back then, as it was actually Liverpool who were eliminated having lost 3-0 on aggregate over the course of the two games. The second leg was played at Anfield, yet the Reds still stumbled to a 2-0 defeat.
