Harry Kewell - 'Liverpool should have lost 2005 Champions League'

Former Liverpool winger Harry Kewell has raised eyebrows after stating the Reds should have lost the famous 2005 Champions League final against AC Milan.

Speaking on Stan Sport, the retired Socceroos great, 43, felt the Italian giants were unlucky on that famous night in Istanbul when they were 3-0 up in the first half only to lose on penalties.

AC Milan exacted revenge in the 2007 decider, with Kewell coming off the bench in the 2-1 defeat in Greece.

'We were unlucky in that (second) game,' Kewell said ahead of Sunday's Champions League final between Liverpool and Real Madrid.

'I actually think AC Milan should have won the 2005 one and we (Liverpool) should have won the 2007 one.'

“You can’t have nights off. That’s why they’re so special.” @HarryKewell knows what a European night means ✨
