Summary

Just months into Jurgen Klopp's tenure he'd taken the Reds to a League Cup final, beaten reigning champions Chelsea in the Premier League and seen off Manchester United in the Europa League, but even more drama was to follow. Four years on from Liverpool's stunning 4-3 home win over Borussia Dortmund Guy Clarke, Dan Kay and Matt Addison look back on the game, it's context and the significant role it played in shaping Klopp's reign at Anfield. From the poignancy of the 27th anniversary of the Hillsborough Disaster commemorated prior to kick-off, to the drama on the field as the legacy the game left, all bases are covered. With Divock Origi, Philippe Coutinho, Mamadou Sakho and Dejan Lovren all on the scoresheet, join us as we look back on the tale of the tie as the Reds would eventually make it to the Europa League final.
