Tweets, Photos and Video: Liverpool legends on Dortmund game
Some legendary Liverpool players of yesteryear took to social media to give their reaction to yesterday’s Europa League win over Borussia Dortmund.
Jamie Carragher alluded to the fact that he had played in a number of last-gasp or comeback games in Europe for the Reds, but said the Dortmund was his first as a fan. He shared a video of the view from his seat in Anfield at the final whistle.
My Anfield Inter/St Etienne/Olympiakos/Chelsea night as a fan!Very few clubs capable of these nights,it's not the players it's the clubs DNA

Former team-mate Steven Gerrard branded the game “incredible”.
That opinion was shared by former Reds striker Ian Rush.
