Sir Kenny Dalglish has not given up hope of Liverpool staging another Anfield comeback in the Champions League against Real Madrid and winning another Istanbul final, saying: 'Maybe romance is not yet dead.'
The former Liverpool player and manager believes the Reds face a tougher task against Real than they did in overturning a three-goal deficit to beat Barcelona in the 2019 semi-finals, and not just because the match will be played behind closed doors due to the coronavirus pandemic.
But he hopes the pull of a return to the Ataturk Stadium in Istanbul on May 29 - where they completed an incredible comeback victory over AC Milan to win the 2005 Champions League - can spur on Jurgen Klopp's men after their 3-1 defeat in the Spanish capital on Tuesday.
