You'll never walk alone

For football lovers ...

I hope all of you who like football enjoy this video: The best momments of 2005 Champions League final with "You'll never walk alone" as music theme.
AC Milan versus Liverpool FC. A really astonishing match!!!



Liverpool FC anthem: You'll never walk alone

When you walk through a storm hold your head up high
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm is a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind,
Walk on through the rain,
Tho' your dreams be tossed and blown.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart
And you'll never walk alone,
You'll never, ever walk alone.
