The Reds beat Olympiakos in club captain’s testimonial…
Liverpool beat Greek side Olympiakos 2-0 in Steven Gerrard’s testimonial today.
The legendary midfielder, who has made 630 appearances for the Reds, came off for fellow Liverpudlian Jay Spearing in the 85th minute, and received a standing ovation from the Anfield crowd.
Goals from Joe Allen and Jordan Henderson had earlier given Liverpool the lead, in what was a very composed performance. The Reds have now won five pre-season matches out of five, without conceding a goal.
Club legends Robbie Fowler and Jamie Carragher also made appearances, in what was a fitting tribute to the service Gerrard has given Liverpool over the past decade.
