League Cup final memories: 2003
Concluding our League Cup final memories feature, we look at the last time Liverpool lifted the trophy – against Manchester United in 2003.
Arch rivals Manchester United were Liverpool's opponents for the 2003 League Cup final at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium as the Reds aimed to get their up-and-down season back on track.
And Steven Gerrard got Gerard Houllier's men off to a great start, finding the back of the net with a 25-yard strike that took a deflection off David Beckham six minutes before the break.
United piled on the pressure in the second half, but Jerzy Dudek rose to the fore, producing a string of fine saves to thwart United.
Michael Owen secured the win on 86 minutes, racing through to fire beyond Fabien Barthez in front of a delighted travelling Kop.
