Playing in the old European Fairs Cup, Bill Shankly’s side had seven different scorers on the night, with five goals netted in each half of the first leg of the sides' first-round tie.
Left-back Alec Lindsay had a debut to remember as he found the net, Alun Evans, Tommy Smith and Bobby Graham all scored twice, while Ian Callaghan, Chris Lawler and Peter Thompson were also on the mark.
Houllier later revealed he had attended the game with his future Anfield assistant Patrice Bergues as he experienced the Kop for the very first time.
