ATHENS (Reuters) - The first of Filippo Inzaghi's two Champions League-winning goals for AC Milan on Wednesday was a fluke according to Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez.
"It was luck but that is football," the Spaniard said of the goal that deflected off Inzaghi from Andrea Pirlo's freekick.
Most of the Olympic Stadium crowd would no doubt have agreed with him but the scorer had an alternative viewpoint.
"It was something that we rehearsed in training," said Inzaghi with a grin. "I scored with it against Empoli. Sometimes it just comes off."
it was pure luck which changed the match since liverpool were controling the match in all the first half
