In March 2007, the Reds defender wrote himself into United folklore with one swing of his right boot. Planting the ball into the roof of Liverpool goalkeeper Pepe Reina’s net, celebrations erupted in the away end, as the team and fans celebrated a famous, last-gasp win at Anfield.
With this in mind, fans will be delighted to see John pulling on the famous red shirt again when a team of club legends take on their Liverpool counterparts at Old Trafford on 21 May. The Legends of the North match promises to be a memorable match-up and O’Shea is relishing his return.
