Liverpool Vs Juventus

Football
Score: 2-1 to Liverpool.
In this Champions League quarter final, Liverpool surprisingly beat a team who had only conceded 3 in the Champions League this season, Juventus. Juventus will still believe they're in with a chance having got the all important away goal but Liverpool are now in the driving seat for the return leg in Turin next week.
Liverpool's Players Ratings
Juventus` Players Ratings
Scott Carson-7- He did very well in the match but the mistake he made was very costly.
Steve Finnan-6- A good game for Finnan. Providing solidarity and making good forward runs.
Djimi Traore-6- Made one mistake but got away with it. Otherwise did well in the game.
Jamie Carragher-7- Did great at Centreback and more performances like this will make Sven Goran Eriksson think about givin Carragher a start.
Sami Hyypia-8- Hyppia was leading the defence throughout the game as well as scoring a sweet left volley.
Luis Garcia-7- Scored a brilliant goal. Terrorised the defence throughout the game.
John Arne Riise-6- Made good crosses and got back well.
Steven Gerrard-7- His influence is what keeps the team going. Kept the team going for all the 90 minutes.
Igor Biscan-6- The greatly improved Biscan has put in some good solid performances so far. This was another of them.
Anthony Le Tallec-5- Not a good match for him. Missing a lot of chances.
Milan Baros-7-  Baros wouldn't stop making the Juventus defence working and trying to track his runs.
Gianluigi Buffon-6- Will be disappointed to have conceded two but nevertheless made good saves to keep Juventus in.
Lilian Thuram-7- Shepherded the defence and didn`t allow attacks down the left get through.

Fabio Cannavaro-7- Didn`t put a foot wrong in the match and scored the goal that put Juventus back in this match.
Jonathon Zebina-6- Good solid display from Zebina.
Marco Camoranesi-7- Cut in well and made the link between midfield and attack work well.
Pavel Nedved-7- His usual great self in a match where Juventus came back to give themselves a chance in the next leg.
Manuele Blasi-6- Forced Liverpool into making long balls as he and Emerson proved what a partnership they make.
Emerson-6- The partnership of Blasi and Emerson really allowed Nedved and Camoranesi to attack.
