Liverpool skipper Steven Gerrard has urged his team-mates to show why they are the champions of europe.

Liverpool will start tonight's champion league match trailing by one goal and knowing they will need to find the back of the net atleast once to keep there hopes of retaining the cup alive.

"We have to show everyone why we're European Champions," says the Reds skipper.

"Benfica have a lot of respect for us and they'll be well aware of what we did at Anfield last season. They know they're going to have to produce one of their best performances to knock us out, so we've got to make sure that doesn't happen,we've also got our own fans behind us and when they make the kind of noise they do on a European night, it really helps us.
