No cheating, Googling, whatever. What have you got?... Just say three maximum and give others a go.

Stephane Henchoz. Cleared an Ian Bennett goal kick with a header (climbing above Dele Adebola) in the 7th minute of the League Cup final in 2001.

I’ll leave the rest for others.

I really like that answer. I was actually after goals scored for us, but fuck it, good answer, I didn't phrase the question properly.

Goals for us. Good man. 2 well-earned points. EDIT: I'll reluctantly accept the OGs especially if you can explain the Nunez thing (I don't know all the answers to this dtuff myself.) EDIT : Ah, too manys beers here, my misreading. Excusez moi, as they once said in 'Parliament.'

Alan Hansen, 1981 League Cup Final replay. Via someones knee.

I remember that game well as it was the first time I had seen Rushie. I remember thinking - "who's that and why is he playing in a cup final"

Now thinking back, you're right of course.  :)

I remember seeing footage of Keegan's goal, I just imagined for some reason a diving header!

He got two. One a powerful shot, centrally, and one a tap in after a great move.

EDIT: I was too young to watch that game but I remember in later years reading something about Malcolm MacDonald (sp?) boasting before the game about what he was going to do to us. Not sure what it was he'd said, but I've always loved it when opposing players spout shit off before a game - just like Clinton Morris(on?) years later after we lost a first leg (LC semi?) 2-1 at Palace. We trounced them 5-0 at Anfield and that clown fluffed one right in front of The Kop. Anyway, sorry to digress.......

I believe Alan Kennedy and Terry Mac were playing for the Toon that day...

The diving header i'm thinking of is St John's in the Cup final!

Yeah, "Supermac" was banging them in over a few seasons for Newcastle, scored in every round in 74 and was gobbing off about what he was going to do to us and we rammed it back down his throat ;D.  My first time seeing us win the FA Cup after having seen us lose to Arsenal in 1971.

Yep, both played against us

Had a look at the highlights afterwards and man the goals scored in that extra time were all shitty as hell, including Antonio Nunez's.

There’s were all bundled in weren’t they? And his was some loopy ball (deflected shot or cross?) that he climbed highest to nod in.

I was in Cardiff for that one - we got there an hour earlier than we needed to as we had the kick off time wrong so hit the pubs very early. Some let off when Riise scored in the first minute!

This is one of those I've never watched back so can't really remember Nunez's goal - just Riise's and the Gerrard OG.

A Liverpool fan was touring the USA on holiday and stopped in a remote bar in the hills of Nevada. He was chatting to the bartender when he spied an old native Indian sitting in the corner. He had tribal gear on, long white plaits, wrinkled face.'Who's he?. 'That's the Memory Man.' said the bartender. 'He knows everything. He can remember any fact. Go and try him out.' So the fella goes over, and thinking he won't know about English football, asks 'Who won the 1965 FA Cup Final?'. 'Liverpool' replies the Memory Man. 'Who did they beat?' 'Leeds' was the reply. 'And the score?' '2-1' 'Who scored the winning goal?' 'Ian St. John' was the old man's reply. He was knocked out by this and told everyone back home about the Memory Man when he got back. A few years later he went back to the USA and tried to find the impressive Memory Man. Eventually he found the bar and sitting in the same seat was the old Indian only this time he was older and more wrinkled. He was so impressed in their last meeting, he decided to greet the Indian in his native tongue. He approached him with the greeting 'How'.

The Memory man replied.....'Diving header in the six yard box'.
We already have shit in the country, and the game of Liverpool fills life with joy. Thanks
