LFC Launch Istanbul Anniversary Range

New Liverpool FC collection launches to celebrate the 'Miracle of Istanbul'

To mark 20 years since Liverpool FC's incredible Champions League triumph in Istanbul, LFC Retail is launching a special anniversary range.

The Reds lifted the European Cup for a fifth time on May 25, 2005, producing the 'Miracle of Istanbul' by coming from three goals down against AC Milan and winning on penalties.

Built on a black, grey and red colour palette, the new anniversary collection features special-edition apparel – T-shirts, polo shirts, scarves, hats and collectables, including a new long-sleeve version of the replica jersey worn on the night.

Legendary defender Sami Hyypia, who was part of the starting XI in the game, features in the campaign imagery. "Somehow you didn't realise what you had achieved, but it was a great feeling," he says. "When you are a professional football player, you would like to win the Champions League at least once, and we managed to do it in Istanbul."

Alongside the Istanbul anniversary range is a collection of exclusive signed merchandise from the team who created club history that night. There is also a special-edition anniversary blackout jersey that is inspired by the original home shirt worn at the match, now with unique gold detailing.

This has NFC technology hidden in the crest that unlocks exclusive content and a competition via a smart phone, including an interview with Hyypia.

Shop the range now in the LFC Store in the ILAC Centre.
