Career in Pictures: Rafa Benitez’s spell as Liverpool manager

Gerrard’s Hammer blow

After defeating rivals Manchester United and Chelsea on their way to the final, Liverpool were the overwhelming favourites against West Ham in the 2006 FA Cup final at Cardiff’s Millennium Stadium.

However, with seconds left on the clock, Rafa’s men found themselves 3-2 down until Steven Gerrard stepped up to score on of the greatest FA Cup final goals.

Following extra-time, the Reds won 3-1 on penalties to bank their Spanish boss another trophy and the club’s seventh victory in the competition.
